6 Written Questions

1. the energy needed to remove an electron from a negative ion to form a neutral atom or molecule
2. metallic elements in group 2 of the periodic table. They are harder than alkali metals and are also slightly less reactive, lose two electrons in a reaction, are gray-white in color, and are good conductors of electricity. Beryllium, Magnesium, Calcium, Strontium, Barium, Radium
3. an electron in the outer shell of an atom which can combine with other atoms to form molecules
4. a negatively charged ion
5. any element of the lanthanide series (atomic numbers 57 through 71)
6. an arrangement of the elements in order of their atomic numbers so that elements with similar properties fall in the same column, or group
