Atomic Structure 1. Draw a detailed labelled diagram of an atom of nitrogen. Include the names of the fundamental particles, their relative charges and masses. Write down the electron configuration of nitrogen. 2. Draw simple dot and cross diagrams and write down the electron configurations of the following elements: C, Ca, Li 3. Label your periodic table with group names (where applicable) and group numbers, label the energy levels (period numbers), indicate which are metals, non-metals and the transition metals. 4. Explain how the group number and the period number relate to the electron configuration of an atom.

Writing Formulae and balanced symbol equations Before you can start work on moles (amount of substance) you need to know how to interpret equations and formula. A-level chemists only ever write balanced symbol equations and you need to know a whole range of formula off by heart. These tasks will help you to achieve this. 1. Write a definition and give an example for the following terms: formula, molecule, ion (anion, cation), ionic compound, metallic bonding, macromolecule 2. How do you deduce the charge of a monatomic ion from its location in the periodic table? (Hint: Think of the number of electrons in the outer shell). Add the charges of the ions in each group to your periodic table. 3. Find out and write down the formula of the following molecular compounds (you need to memorise these): methane, oxygen, hydrogen, chlorine, ammonia, hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, phosphoric acid. 4. Find out and write down the formula and overall charge of the following polyatomic ions (you need to memorise these): chloride, ammonium, sulfate, nitrate, phosphate, carbonate, hydrogen carbonate. 5. What are the formula of these anions: hydride, sulfide, nitride (think about oxide)?
