Objective
Lab #6- Properties of Metals, Nonmetals and Metalloids
- What properties distinguish metals from nonmetals?
- What properties of metalloids make than similar to both metals and
nonmetals?
- Why must physical and chemical properties be tested to distinguish
between metals, nonmetals and metalloids?
- Can elements be classified by their properties?
- Who started the development of the periodic table and why?
- What is the law of Octaves and how did it apply to Newlands periodic
table?
- Why did Dmitri Mendeleev arrange the periodic table by atomic mass
and what did his periodic table look like?
- Who developed the modern periodic table?
- What are the parts of the periodic table?
- Where are the metals and nonmetals on the periodic table? Where
are the metalloids?
Hand out Blank Periodic table
- Where on the periodic table are the lanthanides and actinides?
- Is it possible to determine which element is unknown when given
clues about atomic structure, placement on periodic table, state of
matter, or physical/chemical properties?
- How can clues about unknown elements help students learn about
the periodic table?
Hand in Castle Mendeleev
- What is atomic radius and how does the trend change as you move
across the periodic table? Down the periodic table?
- What is an ion? What is ionic radius and how does its trend change
on the periodic table?
- What is ionization energy? Why can there be more than one
ionization energy per element?
- What is electron affinity? Why are most electron affinities negative?
- What is electronegativity? Which element has the greatest
electronegativity?
- What is atomic radius and how does the trend change as you move
across the periodic table? Down the periodic table?
- What is an ion? What is ionic radius and how does its trend change
on the periodic table?
- What is ionization energy? Why can there be more than one
ionization energy per element?
- What is electron affinity? Why are most electron affinities negative?
- What is electronegativity? Which element has the greatest
electronegativity?

- Lab #7- All in the Cards/Periodic Trends
A-All in the Cards
- What are the periodic trends and can you use them to put unknown
elements in periodic order?
- What are similarities and differences among elements and how can
those be used to place the elements in periodic order?
B- Periodic Trends
- How does electron configuration relate to the trends in atomic
radius, electronegativity, and ionization energy?
- When graphing these trends, are there elements that do not follow
the common trend? Why or why not?
- How is graphing in Excel done correctly for science? What is the
correct way to connect the points?
What Element am I Activity
- What are the five periodic trends and how are they represented in
the periodic table?
- What is the difference between electron affinity, and
electronegativity?
- How can the periodic trends be used to help identify unknown
elements?
- What other information should be used besides periodic trends to
help identify unknown elements?
- What are ionic charges and how can they be used to identify an
element?

Lab Quiz
Its Elementary- Bracket Activity
- How can students use the periodic trends to “advance” elements in
their bracket?
- Which element will win the whole “tournament”?
Mini Test Periodic Trends
- What are electron affinity, ionization energy, electronegativity,
atomic radius and ionic radius and what are their patterns on the
periodic table?
- What are the parts of the periodic table and how can an element be
identified using these parts?
- Can theoretical elements be place in periodic trend order?
Lab #8- Qualitative Analysis of Halides
- Where are the halides on the periodic table?
- What are the chemical and physical properties of the halides?
- Can students use the halide properties they discover during the lab
to identify an unknown halide ion?
- What is a flow chart and how can using a flow chart help to discover
unknown elements?
