*Directions: (1) Read the information to identify the year and scientist
that discovered the (118) elements of the periodic table. (2) Locate the
elements on the periodic table and write the matching symbol. (3) Write
the atomic #. You will be assigned to a select element for the Element
Project. (4) Record the element name, symbol, number and other data
information in your science spiral. (5) Place a check next to your assigned
element. Use a Periodic table, Periodic table links, science textbook, and
periodic table in the agenda book (pg 125) as a reference.
Date: _________________
Period: ________
*Element Symbol should be written as; Always capitalize the first letter. Use lower case letter for the second and third letters.
*Example 1
Who discovered the element gold, silver, copper, neon, etc...?
Below is a list of all of the known elements, who they were discovered by and the year they
were discovered. Some elements, such as gold, silver and iron, have been known since ancient
times, so it is impossible to credit a single person for their discovery. Other elements were
discovered around the same time by two or more scientists who were working independently of
each other. In these cases, each scientist is listed along with the year they made their discovery.
Other elements were discovered by teams of scientists working together. In cases like this, the
known members of the team are listed along with a single year of discovery. Click on an
element's name for the full story!
