Periodic Table(2019-2020)

Vocabulary:  atomic #,  chemical symbol, chemical name, group, period, metal, metalloid(or semimetal), non-metal


Like a map, you don't have to memorize the Periodic table, but you should be able to READ it.

So, each tile tells you certain info about an atom, such as it's name and symbol.  It will also tell you whether it is a solid, liquid or gas, a metal, nonmetal or metalloid. Other info you can ignore for now.

Then:

1)  The table is then organized into:

VERTICAL groups
(these atoms share similar properties) 

and

HORIZONTAL rows called periods(These atoms repeat their properties as they are listed left to right - resulting in the groups). 

2)  It is divided into metals, metalloids(or semimetals) and nonmetals.

 

ENRICHMENT - what is a "non-element" & atomic structure(2019-2020)

Vocabulary - compound, atomic number, proton, neutron, electron

This lesson is mostly enrichment.

That means I will quiz & test you on it to a lesser degree than other Science concepts this term. 

These topics will NOT be on the June exam.

I am teaching them because they will give you a better understanding of the concepts I must teach you.

First, this diagram explains what you call a substance if it is NOT an element.

 

 

 

Second, this powerpoint helps explain the arrangement of the Periodic Table.
