Make sure you are taking notes in your packet!
Please follow instructions carefully.
You will go between notes and coloring on your Periodic Table.
13
Located in Group 1 (except Hydrogen)
Extremely reactive--they want to lose 1 electron to become "noble gas" like
14
15
The color does not matter, however make sure you ONLY color the Alkali Metals. Make sure to fill in your color key!
16
Located in Group 2
Also very reactive
Both Group 1 & 2 occur naturally as compounds
not individual elements
Needs to lose 2 electrons to become "noble gas like"
17
18
The color does not matter, however make sure you ONLY color the Alkaline Earth Metals. DO NOT color inside the arrow! Make sure to fill in your color key!
19
Located in Group 7
Very active nonmetals
Want to gain 1 electron to become more like a noble gas
20
21
The color does not matter, however make sure you ONLY color the Halogens. Make sure to fill in your color key!
22
Group 8
Sometimes called "inter gases" since generally they NEVER react
Mainly, but not always true, Kr & Xe will sometimes react
Have a full valence shell (8 electrons
Look at you, taking notes!
23
The color does not matter, however make sure you ONLY color the Noble Gases. Make sure to fill in your color key!
24
Located in the center of the Periodic Table
10 elements wide (d block)
Semi-reactive, very valuable, crucial to many life processes
The Yellow color only!
25
26
The color does not matter, however make sure you ONLY color the Transition Metals. DO NOT color inside the arrow! Make sure to fill in your color key!
27
Located at the bottom of the Periodic Table
14 elements wide (f block)
Some are radioactive, but NOT all
Lanthanides = Period 6(4f)
Actinides = Period 7 (5f)
28
The color does not matter, however make sure you ONLY color the Lanthanides & Actinides. Make sure to fill in your color key!
