Students are to complete their Science Notebook Reading Guide on page 79 that is based upon ionic radius, ionization energy, and electronegativity. We will reinforce the atomic and ionic radii as well as ionization energy through a transparency activity.

Students will read and analyze the trends observed in the periodic table and describe how atomic size is defined, how the trends relate to atomic mass, and practice on interpreting trends in atomic radii. Furthermore, students will elaborate upon the … Continue reading →

We will answer and correct our homework on the s-, p-, d-, and f-blocks and reinforce the classification of the elements in terms of their arrangement in the periodic table that is based upon their similar chemical properties as well … Continue reading →

Students will answer and correct pages 74-76 in their reading guide based upon the organizational information about electron configurations of the elements that includes the descriptive relationship between the number of the valence electrons and the chemical properties of atoms. … Continue reading →

We will answer and correct our homework on the physical and chemical properties of the periodic table from the previous day, and we will do a final reinforcement on how the Periodic Table of the Elements have been put together by several scientists that … Continue reading →

Students will identify certain elements based upon their physical and chemical properties as well as be able to read and locate elements in the periodic table in terms of its periods and groups or families, and analyze where each family … Continue reading →

We will continue our discussion and elaboration upon the major characteristics of the periodic table by examining closely how a scientist can build upon the work of another in order to synthesize the periodic table as we know today, starting … Continue reading →

We will continue our journey through the closer examination of the Periodic Table of the Elements through its characteristics in terms of how it had been put together as well as realize the significant work that had been put forth by several … Continue reading →

Students will be evaluated upon Chapter 5, Electrons in Atoms, that is based upon light and quantized energy, quantum theory and the atom, and the electron configuration of several atoms. Students need to review all pertinent handouts on said topic … Continue reading →

As a final reinforcement upon Electrons in atoms, students need to have completed the following questions as a review for their chapter test on Thursday: Pages 166-168, do #’s: 35, 44, 45, 60, 61, 68, 70, 76, 77, 85, 86, 87, 90a, … Continue reading →
