Review of Terms and Concepts Worksheet

1. Fill in the blanks with the terms and words most appropriate to complete each sentence.

a) In the mid-nineteenth century, only sixty or so elements had been discovered. In _______ (a year) a Russian chemist and inventor named ________________________ created a chart called the ______________________ that predicted the properties of elements that had not yet been discovered. He did this by arranging the elements according to their increasing atomic _________________, and by their physical and chemical _________________.

b) Each element in the periodic table is represented by an element box. In this box there is the following information: two numbers, one is a whole number called the _________________; and the other number is larger and contains a decimal, and this one is called the _________________ . In the box, there is also the short form of the element called the _________________ and then the full identity of the element which is written using the _________________.

c) Today the modern periodic table is arranged into columns and rows. The columns are called _________________ and there are _________________ (a number) of them. The rows are called _________________ and there are _________________ (a number) of them. The periodic table is divided by a zigzag line also known as the _________________ that separates the _________________, found on the left of it, from the _________________, found on the right of it. Directly around the zigzag line are eight elements called _________________ .

d) All the metals, except for _________________ which is a liquid, are found as solids at room temperature. The metals are also mostly _________________ in color, are ductile, malleable, conduct _________________ and some are attracted to _________________.

e) At room temperature, most of the non-metals are found in the _________________ state except for _________________ which is a liquid, and _________________, _________________, _________________ , _________________ and _________________ which are all found as solids. These elements are _________________ or come in various colors, are not_________________ , not _________________ and do not conduct _________________ nor are they attracted to _________________ .

f) _________________ are elements that have some properties of metals and some properties of nonmetals. They are all found in the _________________ state. Most have a silvery metallic luster, they are brittle and are medium to good ______________________ .

g) ________________________ are groups on the periodic table that contain elements that share similar properties.

h) Group 1 elements are called the _________________ and they contain the most _________________ group of all the metals. They react very violently with _________________ and therefore must be stored under _________________ oil so that the water vapor in the air cannot react with these elements. These metals get more reactive as you go _________________ (up or down) the group and the most reactive of all the elements in this group is _________________ .

i) Group 2 elements are called the ________________________ and they contain the second most reactive group of all the metals. They also react with water and get more reactive as you go _________________ (up or down) the group.

2

j) Group 17 elements are called the _________________ and they contain the only group of elements found in all three _________________ of matter. Fluorine and chlorine are found in the _________________ state, bromine is found in the _________________ state and iodine and astatine are found in the _________________ state. This group of elements gets more reactive as you go _________________ (up or down) the group and the most reactive of all of the elements in this group is _________________ .

k) Group 18 contain elements called _________________ and they are special because they are the least _________________ of all the elements. They are so stable that they do not _________________ with other elements and therefore do not form any _________________ . The first two elements in group 18 are _________________ and _________________ .

l) Groups 3 to 12 contain elements called the ____________________________ . This group of elements are all solids (except for _________________, which is a liquid) and contain many of the most well known of all the metals like _________________, _________________ and _________________ to name three.

m) Below the main body of the periodic table, you have two additional rows. One row stems from period number 6 and this collection of elements are called the _________________ . They are all solid metals and used to be called the _________________ . The other row stems from period number 7 and this collection of elements are called the _________________ . Like uranium and plutonium, all the rest of the members of this collection are _________________ .

2. On the diagram below, and using different colored pencil crayons, shade in and then label the following elements.

He did this by arranging the elements according to their increasing atomic _____n_u_m__b_e_r_s_____, and by their physical and chemical ____p_r_o_p_e__rt_i_e_s____.

b) Each element in the periodic table is represented by an element box. In this box there is the following information: two numbers, one is a whole number which is called the __a_t_o_m__i_c_n_u_m__b_e_r__; and the other number is larger and contains a decimal, and this one is called the ____a_to__m_i_c_m__a_s_s___ . In the box, there is also the short form of the element called the _e__le_m__e_n_t__sy_m__b_o__l _ and then the full identity of the element which is written using the ___e_le_m__e_n_t__n_a_m__e__.
