Discover how the periodic table tells the story of its elements. Learners begin by studying the makeup of several mixtures. Their analysis leads to a discussion of elements and the periodic table. As they dig deeper, they understand the...

A description of the arrangement of elements on The Periodic Table based on electron configuration.

This learning module allows students to use the organization of the periodic table to understand the element and their properties. By the end of the activity, students will be able to locate metals, nonmetals, and metalloids and the...

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] In this learning module, students will explore how the form of the periodic table is related to electron configurations, which in turn influences chemical reactivity.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] In the following online tutorial students will sse the Periodic Table to identify and explain the properties of chemical families, including alkali metals, alkaline...

Elements in the same group in the periodic table have similar chemical properties. This is because their atoms have the same number of electrons in the highest occupied energy level. Group 1 elements are reactive metals called the alkali...

Given descriptions or specific element groups, students will use a Periodic Table to relate properties of chemical families to position on the table.

Given descriptions, scenarios, or groups/series of elements, students will use the Periodic Table to relate the size of the atomic radii, electronegativity, and ionization energy of elements to their position on the chart. Students will...

The elements in Group 7 of the Periodic Table are called the halogens. They include chlorine, bromine and iodine. Learn about their properties and uses, then take a quiz.

This lesson focuses on the periodic table and the configurations. In the modern periodic table, elements are in order of atomic number in periods and groups. Electronic configurations model how electrons are arranged in atoms. A link to...

Describes the Octet Rule as it pertains to the Groups 1-7 on the Periodic Table of Elements. It also provides a Sideways Periodic Chart With Electron Shell Numbers.

A video and a short quiz on the periodic table of elements and how it is organized.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Explains the organization of modern periodic table.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Mendeleev's periodic table and the groups and periods.

The transition metals are placed in the center of the periodic table, between groups 2 and 3. They are generally hard and dense, and less reactive than the alkali metals. Iron, copper, silver and gold are important transition metals. A...

This lesson will explore the layout of the periodic table by defining different groups and categories of elements. It is 3 of 3 in the series titled "Periodic Table Organization."

An explanation of atomic structure and the element groups in the periodic table using plain language. Supported by diagrams and charts.

This lesson focuses on atoms and elements including what they are, the chemical symbols for elements, and the placement of elements on the periodic table. A link to a test is provided.

This lesson focuses on predicting chemical reactions using The Group 1 elements in the Periodic Table are known as the alkali metals. They include lithium, sodium and potassium, which all react vigorously with air and water. It provides...

This lesson will describe metallic character and describe how it changes throughout the periodic table. It is 3 of 3 in the series titled "Metallic Character."
