1. MEET THE ELEMENTS! PROJECT

2. Elements 0 All elements are abbreviated using a capital letter, and sometimes a lowercase letter. 0 Ex: 0 Ca = Calcium 0 N = Nitrogen 0 H = Hydrogen 0 Li = Lithium

3. 0 In the next slide, you will see the chemical formula for the household items we cut out yesterday. 0 Please pick 6 elements from the household objects you would like to research.

6. Instructions 0 You will be using your periodic table, please take it out. 0 For each element complete a box with the following information: 1. Name of the Element 2. The Element’s Symbol 3. The Atomic Number 4. The Atomic Mass 5. 3 Properties of this element (is it shiny? Malleable? Heavy? Metal?) 6. 3 common/household substances your element can be found in a) Use the pictures you cut out! b) Write the chemical formula next to the picture. 0 For #5 and #6 you may use your technology to look up the element. 0 This will be posted in the school hallways so be sure it is neat and complete!

7. Step 1 0 You will be using your periodic table, please take it out. 0 For each element find the following information: 1. Name of the Element a. Ex: C = Carbon b. Cl = Chlroine

8. Step 2 0 For each element find the following information: 0 The Element’s Symbol 0 Ex: The symbol for Carbon is C 0 The symbol for Fluorine is F

9. Step 3 0 For each element find the following information: 1. The Atomic Number 1. Ex: The atomic number for Silicon is 14

10. Step 4 0 For each element find the following information: 1. The Atomic Mass 1. Ex: The atomic mass of Silicon is 28.086 2. Click the next slide to see a BIG periodic table
