PERIODS, GROUPS, & FAMILIES IN THE PERIODIC TABLE NOTES



PERIODS, GROUPS, & FAMILIES IN THE PERIODIC TABLE NOTES

The periodic table is organized in a way that helps us to remember information about the elements’ properties. You’ll find the information you need for to complete these notes on pages 120-128.

| |Properties/ Characteristics: |Where to find them on the Periodic Table:|At least 6 example elements (Just their symbols):|

|Metals | | | |

| | | | |

|Nonmetals | | | |

| | | | |

|Semiconductors (or Metalloids) | | | |

| | | | |
