What information did Mendeleev use to find a pattern in the elements?

When did Mendeleev notice a pattern?

Why was Mendeleev able to predict the properties of elements that had not yet been discovered?

What information about an element is given in each square of the periodic table?

1) Melting point, .density, color, atomic mass, and the number of chemical bonds it could form.

2) When he arranged the elements in order of increasing atomic mass

3) He noticed a repeating pattern of the elements

4) Atomic number, chemical symbol, name, atomic mass

6) What are the rows of the periodic table called?

7) How do the properties of the metals in a period change from left to right?

8) What are the columns in the periodic table called?

5) The number of protons and electrons and the average number of neutrons

6) periods

7) From highly reactive to very unreactive

8) groups. By looking at an element’s periodic group, you can find other elements with similar properties

Read p. 609-617

1)Objective: I will learn about the different properties elements may have.

2) Essential Question: Can I evaluate the significance of the different properties of elements

3) Warm-up: How is the modern day periodic table different than the one created by Dmitri Mendeleev?

4) Vocabulary: ductility, malleability, conductivity, reactivity, magnetism

1) Malleability= the ability of an element to be rolled into thin sheets.

2) ductility= the ability of an element to be stretched into wire

3) conductivity= the ability of an element to transfer heat or electricity to another object.

4) reactivity= the ease and speed with which an element combines with other substances

5) magnetism= the ability of an element to attract other materials.

Tips for Success on Today’s Vocabulary Quiz

1)

2)

Think of each statement in the way it would be said by someone.

Think of the hints (underlined words) in the statement that give away the vocabulary word.

3)

4)

Read all of each statement first and match the statement with the word that best fits.

I believe in you. I know you will do well.

Believe in yourself also and you will be amazed.

Co ngratulations! You are about to have the grand opening for your first business. You have decided to open up a store of metals. It’s time to get to work so you can load the store full of customers for the grand opening. Think of the types of metals you will sell and what they might be useful for. You may refer to the list of metal objects you found in the scavenger hunt yesterday.

Steps for creating the store of metals

1) Identify 5 metals your store will sell.

2) Draw illustrations depicting what the metals you sell may be used for.

3) Come up with a name for your store of metals. Create a propaganda slogan to market your store to the public

4) Prepare a commercial to present to the class advertising your store.
