You can detail the important terms in element classification through this useful resource. This presentation describes individual elements, and details characteristics, and general facts that can make them easier to group.

How are chemical bonds similar and how are they different? Provide your young chemists with the resources to more thoroughly understand the concepts of ionic and covalent bonds. Pupils research these topics, diagram examples of each...

In this elements, compounds, and mixtures worksheet, students answer questions about the properties of elements, mixtures, and compounds. Students identify the physical changes that is made to a substance to determine if it is an element.

Students identify how to relate the position of an element in the periodic table to its atomic number and atomic mass. They also identify and interpret how to use the periodic table to identify metals, semimetals, nonmetals, and...

In this periodic table activity, students complete a table of elements with their atomic number, atomic mass and symbol. They classify elements by their group name and distinguish between metals, nonmetals, and semi-metals. They also...

"Up and Atom" is a mini-unit introducing middle-schoolers to the wonders of elements. Participants draw atom models, examine the periodic table, compare samples of metals to nonmetals, identify unknown elements, and more! The beginning...

Class members use the provided worksheet to create a resume for one element from the periodic table. The activity teaches learners about all of the properties of elements and how to read the periodic table.

Why not review for that chemistry test with a little healthy classroom competition? With a fun and interactive Jeopardy-style game, you can adjust the number of teams, keep track of scores, and even make your own test if the provided...

Eighth graders read and interpret the Periodic Table. They also make decisions on how to group and arrange different kinds of matter and draw the structure of atoms of pure elements. Finally, 8th graders contrast and compare basic...

Pupils describe how elements are arranged in the periodic table. They compare metals, nonmetals, and metalloids based on their properties and on their location in the periodic table. Finally, students identify and describe the...

In this activity series worksheet, students read about single replacement reactions and are given a table with the activity series of metals and nonmetals. Students use the activity series to predict if reactions will occur and they...

In this atoms worksheet, students complete 58 questions about the atomic radius of atoms, the ionization energy, the valence electrons, metals, non-metals and semi-metals and the families of elements.

In this atom worksheet, students complete 60 questions about the trends in atoms such as ionization energy and atomic radius, about valence electrons, about the families of elements, about metals, non-metals and semi-metals, about the...

In this groups of the periodic table worksheet, students use on line sources to find characteristics of the alkali metals, the alkaline earth metals, the transition metals, the halogens and the inert gases.

In this compounds worksheet, students describe why metals and nonmetals form ionic compounds and why the formation of ionic compounds are exothermic. This worksheet has 5 short answer questions.

A simple set of slides shows chemistry novices how to name binary compounds containing two nonmetals. Instruction and examples are given, making this a practical presentation for your class. Please note that the links to worksheets on...

In this metal ion worksheet, students follow the steps to determine the oxidation states of the metals in each of the given compounds. Students complete 10 problems.

In this elements worksheet, students compare and contrast metal and nonmetal characteristics. Students also look at the metals found in vitamins. This worksheet has 8 true or false, 10 multiple choice, and 4 short answer questions.

There are 17 multiple choice questions on this periodic table test. The focus is on properties of the elements by group and period. The exam is not formatted well, making it a little difficult to read. There is also a typographical...

In this minerals and rocks activity, students answer questions about the chemistry of minerals, scratch tests, rocks and the rock cycle, and erosion and deposition.

In this naming and writing chemical formulas worksheet, students are given directions and practice writing simple chemical formulas. They identify positive and negative valence elements, they name nonmetal compounds, they name compounds...

Young scholars identify how to relate the position of an element in the periodic table to its atomic number and atomic mass. They identify how to use the periodic table to identify metals, semimetals, nonmetals, and halogens, and also,...
