1. Coloring the Periodic Table Families

2. Directions Use the periodic table in your journal.
Read through the PowerPoint and color as indicated

3. Period and Groups
When you look at a periodic table, each of the rows is considered to be a different period
When a column goes from top to bottom, it's called a group. The elements in a group have the same number of electrons in their outer shell. We call them valence electrons.

4. Families on the Periodic Table
Elements on the periodic table can be grouped into families bases on their chemical properties.
Each family has a specific name to differentiate it from the other families in the periodic table.
Elements in each family
react differently with
other elements.

5. Color these light blue and label
ALKALI METALS
Group 1
Hydrogen is not a member, it is a non-metal
These have only 1 electron in the outer shell
Soft and silvery metals
Very reactive, esp. with water
Good conductors of electricity
Color these light blue and label
“Alkali Metals”
Image:

6. and label “Alkaline Earth Metals”
Group 2
These have 2 electrons in the outer shell
White and malleable
They are reactive, but less than Alkali metals
Conduct electricity
Color these dark green,
and label “Alkaline Earth Metals”

7. TRANSITION METALS Color Dark Blue and label “transition metals”
Groups 3- 12
Good conductors of heat and electricity.
Some are used for jewelry.
The transition metals are able to put up to 32 electrons in their second to last shell.
Can bond with many elements in a variety of shapes.
Color Dark Blue
and label
“transition metals”

8. METALS Metals include Color bright green and label “Metals”
Aluminum (Al)
Gallium (Ga)
Indium(In)
Tin (Sn)
Thallium (Tl)
Lead (Pb)
Bismuth (Bi)
Color bright green and label “Metals”

9. Color these red, and label “Metalloids”
These elements are:
Boron (B)
Silicon (Si)
Germanium (Ge)
Arsenic (As)
Antimony (Sb)
Tellurium (Te)
Polonium (Po)
Color these red, and label “Metalloids”

10. NON-METALS Non-metals include Color Yellow and label “Non-Metals”
Carbon (C)
Nitrogen (N)
Oxygen (O)
Phosphorus (P)
Sulfur (S)
Selenium (Se)
Hydrogen (H)
Color Yellow and label “Non-Metals”

11. Color Purple and label “Halogens”
Group 17
7 electrons in the outer shell
All are non-metals
Very reactive are often bonded with elements from Group 1
Color Purple and label “Halogens”

12. Color a color you have not used and label
Noble Gases
Group 18
Exist as gases
Non-metals
8 electrons in the outer shell = Full
Helium (He) has only 2 electrons in the outer shell = Full
Not reactive with other elements
Color a color you have not used and label
“Noble Gases”

13. Check your work!
Check to make sure the pattern on your periodic table looks like this. The colors DO NOT match, so don’t worry about the colors 

14. Now, you will watch a BrainPOP video about the periodic table.
TAKE NOTES! There will be a quiz at the end that you will turn in.

15. What characteristics do alkali metals and alkaline earth metals have in common? (the same)?
They are good conductors of electricity
They are shiny and strong
When you mix them with water, they form alkaline solutions.
Question 1

16. Carbon has an atomic number of 6. What else does this tell you?
It has 6 neutrons
It has 6 protons
It weighs 6 grams
Question 2

17. Question 3 What do the red and blue circles in the nucleus represent?
Positrons and neutrons
Protons and neutrons
Protons and electrons
Question 3

18. Question 4 What information does the period an element is in tell us?
All the elements in that period have the same number of protons
All the elements in that period have the same number of energy levels (electron shells)
All the elements in that period have the same number of electrons
Question 4

19. True or False. Periods are the horizontal rows
True or False? Periods are the horizontal rows. Groups are the vertical columns.
Question 5

20. Question 6 Molecules are made out of atoms. So, we know that:
Molecules must have at least one proton
It has 6 protons
It weighs 6 grams
Question 6

21. Finished? Turn your paper in to the box at the front table.
Then, take out your periodic table from yesterday and some colors.
Finished?

22. When you finish.. Take notes on the next clean page in your journal about this information:
