What the Chapter 9 Test Covers: Group Properties and Elements
The paper is set across the whole of Chapter 9 rather than one exercise, so it is a fair check of whether the chapter is finished. Questions are drawn from:
- The characteristic properties of group one alkali metals.
- The properties of group two alkaline earth metals.
- The halogens of group seventeen and their reactivity trend.
- The noble gases and why they are unreactive.
- Comparing metals and non-metals across the table.
- Important compounds of these groups and their uses.
Facts You Need Before Attempting It
Most of the marks in Group Properties and Elements hang on a small number of statements being exactly right:
- Alkali metals have one valence electron, are highly reactive, and reactivity increases down the group.
- Halogens have seven valence electrons and reactivity decreases down the group.
- Noble gases are unreactive because their outermost shell is already complete.
Where Marks Go Missing in This Chapter
- Saying halogen reactivity increases down the group.
- Giving alkali metals two valence electrons.
- Explaining noble gas inertness by their mass rather than their full outer shell.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why are the noble gases unreactive?
Because their outermost shell is already complete, so they have no tendency to gain, lose or share electrons in order to achieve a stable configuration.
Is the answer key included?
An answer key for the multiple-choice section is printed at the end of the paper. The written sections should be marked against your textbook and the solved chapter notes.
