As you follow the "Discovering the Periodic Table" instructions, you will answer questions... periodically.....
get it??
2
#1) Zig-zag line/transition line
#2) PERIODS 1-7
#3) Groups 1-18
#4) VALENCE ELECTRONS 1-8
3
Multiple Choice
What does the zig-zag or transition line do on the periodic table?
separates metals and nonmetals
separates solids and liquids
separates qualitative and quantitative
nothing
4
Labeling
Label the three types of elements
Nonmetals
Metals
Metalloids
5
Multiple Choice
What is the total number of GROUPS on periodic table?
18
8
10
14
6
Multiple Choice
What is the MAXIMUM number of valence electrons?
18
8
1
0
7
Multiple Choice
What is direction of periods on the periodic table?
vertical
diagonal
horizontal
none of these
8
Multiple Choice
Elements in the same group such as fluorine, chlorine and bromine have the same number of
valence electrons
energy levels
total protons
neutrons
9
#5) Label the group names.
You can leave off the Boron, Carbon and Nitrogen family names.
10
#6) Label Charges on main groups.
#7) Label charges of Zn, Ag, and Cd
11
CLARIFICATION: ALL OF THE ELEMENTS IN GROUP HAVE SAME NUMBER OF VALENCE ELECTRONS AND THEY ALL HAVE THE SAME CHARGE. THIS IS WHY WE WRITE IT ABOVE EACH GROUP.

8
18
0
15
Multiple Choice
Which transition metal has a charge of +2?
Zinc
Silver
Cadmium
Calcium
16
A negative charge indicates that an electron would be GAINED
+2 SHOWS THAT ELEMENTS WITH THIS CHARGE WOULD LOSE 2 ELECTRONS WHEN BONDING
-1 SHOWS THAT ELEMENTS WITH THIS CHARGE GAIN AN ELECTRON WHEN BONDING
17
Multiple Choice
Which element would GAIN 2 electrons in bonding?
Mg
S
Zn
Al
18
#8-10) States of Matter
#11-18) Coloring the rest - you may color any color as long as you distinguish between the separate groups.
