Periodic Table Exam

Now that we know how to use the periodic table, we'll start naming and drawing compounds.

Homework:

1. Watch: Covalent bonds
2. Do: WSQ - Covalent

Element Presentations

We didn't quite get to all the presentations, but we can finish up the few that remain after the test next time.


Homework:
  Study for the exam.

Here's what you should know:

1. History of periodic table
2. Names of groups
3. Metals vs non-metals
4. Periodic trends
1. Ionization energy
2. Electronegativity
3. How reactive something is
5. Be able to locate elements quickly on the table
1. Name
2. Atomic number
3. Valence electrons
6. Also, remember the following from last chapter.
1. A = Z + N
2. Atomic mass

Periodic Elements Lab

Today we did a lab involving different elements of the periodic table:

1. Mostly metals
2. Some nonmetals
3. A metalloid

We looked at properties such as:

1. Luster
2. Density
3. Malleability
4. Atomic number

Homework:

1. Finish lab report.  Double check that you have met all requirements.  Let's start the quarter strong.
2. Finish element project

Periodic Table

1. Developed in the late 1800s- early 1900s
2. Metals on left; non metals on right
3. 118 elements
4. Can be used to predict trends

Homework:

  Work on Project

Projects:

• Google Slides presentation for selected periodic table group
• Following slides required
• Title
• Similarities within group
• One slide each for 5 examples from the group
• Name
• Picture
• Properties
• Use
• Year discovered/ discoverer
• Sources
• Do not crowd the slides
• You will be able to say things not listed.
• Make the slides legible and attractive.

A Block

1. Simon, Jessica, Brandon - Oxygen Group

7. Caleigh, Kaitlin, Noah - Carbon Group
8. Ivan, Chris, David - Lanthanides
9. Brianna, Lorena, Chris - Alkali Metals
10. /Ben, Andrea, Nathan - Boron Group

Some other John Cage pieces that you probably won't like.

Arranging elements

In class we:

1. Went over the exam
2. Discussed various ways to arrange elements

This will lead into talking about the periodic table

Homework:

1. Watch: Periodic Table
2. Do: Periodic WSQ
3. I really encourage you to watch it, but I understand if you don't get around to it.  My bad for not having it up sooner.

Unit 3 Exam

That's the last test of the quarter!  There will be time for corrections if you need it, but you've got to do it fast.  I'll need them by Friday afternoon.

Homework:
  No WSQ tonight.  I want to do some things in class without telling you all about our next chapter yet.  You might be able to figure it out (or remember) anyway.

Instead, I want you to pick your 10 favorite elements and look up five properties about each.  Please put this information in some sort of chart and put it in your Google Drive folder.

Atomic Mass

Today we talked about atomic mass:

1. Z = protons
2. N = neutrons
3. A = mass number = protons + neutrons
4. Atomic mass is an average of mass numbers

The test is next time.

Here are some things that you need to know:

1. c = wavelength x frequency
2. E = hf
3. Electromagnetic spectrum
4. Atomic models (Dalton, Thompson, Rutherford, Bohr, Electron cloud)
5. Electron configurations
6. Noble gas configuration
7. Lewis Dot Structures
8. A = Z + N

Please work some problems in the back of the chapter and come see me if you are confused about anything.

Homework:

  Study for exam

Valence electrons

Today (10/6 or 10/7):

1. Valence electrons
2. Noble gas configurations
3. Electron configurations vs. periodic table structure
4. Practiced light equations

Homework:

1. Watch: Atomic Mass
2. Do: WSQ - Atomic Mass
3. Start reviewing for the test (It's not next time).

Electron Configurations

Mind blown?

1. Orbital shapes
2. Electron configurations two different ways
3. Applied to periodic table

Here are a few links to what we were talking about in class about electrons being weird.

Quantum Leap (NOVA Video)

Homework:

1. Watch: Valence
2. Do: WSQ - Valence
