5 A few different types However, there are only about 113 different types of atom

6 Element A substance that only contains ONE type of atom is called an element

7 Gold Gold is an element because it only contains ONE type of atom (gold atoms)

8 Oxygen Oxygen is an element because it only contains ONE type of atom (oxygen atoms)

9 Iodine Iodine is an element because it only contains ONE type of atom (Iodine atoms)

10 Water Water is NOT an element because it contains more than one type of atom

11 Today’s lesson Know the names of some chemical elements Know how to write chemical symbols for elements correctly

12 Symbols

13 If one letter, a capital

14 Symbols If one letter, a capital If two letters, capital and lower case

15 Symbols If one letter, a capital If two letters, capital and lower case WHY?

Has great affinity for gold, silver and a range of precious stones 2. Absorbs great quantities of expensive substances 3. May explode spontaneously without prior warning and for no known reason 4. Insoluble in liquids, but activity greatly increases by saturation in alcohol Common uses : 1. Highly ornamental, especially in sports cars 2. Very effective cleaning agent Test : 1. Pure specimen turns rosy pink when discovered in natural state 2. Turns green when placed beside a better specimen Potential hazards : 1. Highly dangerous except in experienced hands 2. Illegal to posses more than one, although several can be maintained at different locations as long as specimens do not come into direct contact with each other.
