This compendious collection of slides leaves no questions when it comes to the concept of atomic size. Thorough and easy-to-read graphs, tables, and graphics explain atomic radii, the shielding effect, the octet rule, isoelectric...

Here is a top-notch handout to supply your chemistry class with. It covers valence electrons, Lewis diagrams, the octet rule, and more! Technically it is less of a activity than a detailed explanation of these chemical bonding concepts....

An organized table charting the different types of chemical bonds arrays this resource. The octet rule, ionization energy, and the naming of compounds are also reviewed. Young chemists answer review questions in multiple choice fashion....

This is an online exercise in which chemistry learners answer a series of multiple choice questions about bonding. Topics addressed include ionic and covalent bonds, electronegativity, ions, valence electrons, resonance structure, and...

Using toothpicks, marshmallows, and round colored sticky dots, physical science enthusiasts build models of an atomic nucleus. In this eighth grade chemistry lesson plan, they play an atom-naming game with the models that they have...

In this chemical compounds worksheet, students review the different types of bonding, define the octet rule, and draw Lewis structures (electron-dot diagrams) for given compounds. This worksheet has 7 fill in the blank, 5 short answer...

In this bonding worksheet, students read about the two different types of chemical bonding: ionic and covalent bonds. Students review ion notation and oxidation numbers. This worksheet has 24 fill in the blank, 2 drawings, and 4 short...

In this chemical bonding worksheet, students review the three types of compounds: ionic, covalent, and polyatomic. Students practice drawing the covalent bonds of given compounds. This worksheet has 5 drawings and 13 fill in the blank...

In this elements activity, high schoolers read how the elements are organized in periods and groups in the periodic table. Students use the periodic table to find the valence electrons and calculate molecular mass. This activity has 20...

In this periods, groups, valence electrons and masses instructional activity, students are given information about all these components of the periodic table. Students identify 4 elements in specific periods and groups, they find the...

In this Lewis structures worksheet, students are given forty molecules. They must draw the Lewis structures, identify multiple bonds and draw resonance structures.

Name is Bond, covalent bond. Through readings and answering questions, classes explore the different types of chemical bonds, their characteristics, valence shell electron pair repulsion theory, and atomic orbitals. 

In this bonding worksheet, students read about the octet rule in bonding, ion notation, ionic bonds, covalent bonds and oxidation numbers. Students write 2 ion notations, they determine if 8 sets of ions will make compounds, they draw 2...

In this periodic table and elements worksheet, students review valence electrons, octet rule, oxidation number, and the difference between metals and non-metals on the periodic table. This worksheet has 5 matching, 20 fill in the blank,...

The radical reactions of polymers seems abstract to many pupils, but this lesson turns them into a fun building game. Scholars use dice and building pieces to build polymers. Then, they determine the theoretical and experimental weight...

For this chemistry worksheet, students describe an atom, its parts, the charges of these parts, and atoms life functions. Then they explain what the octet rule states for the placements of electrons around the nucleus of an atom....

All you will find in this resource is a list of vocabulary terms dealing with chemical bonds. Space is provided for chemistry learners to write out definitions. This would be a terrific tool to help prepare them for a quiz.

In this resonance structures worksheet, students are given 4 rules to writing resonance structures. These include rules about electrons associated with atoms, the unpaired electrons, structures without octets and structures with more...

In "The Nature of Covalent Bonding," chemistry hopefuls demonstrate an understanding of various types of covalent bonds, electron configuration, and resonance structures through fill in the blank, true or false, and matching questions....

Learners practice drawing Lewis dot structures, build molecules with model kits, and predict molecular shapes using VSEPR theory. The combination of written work and hands-on reinforcement benefits young scientists.

In this alkanes worksheet, students complete a table with the chemical formula, the structural formula and the condensed formula of various alkanes given different numbers of carbon atoms. They answer three questions about valence...

Four pages provide plenty of problem solving practice for chemistry whizzes. They answer questions and write electron configurations for ions. They use Lewis dot diagrams to display equations. Covalent bonds are explored. The last half...

This PowerPoint provides a complete recap of all the information needed for a unit on elements and the periodic table. The seventy slides cover the basic notation of elements, energy levels and ionization energies. The trends in the...

It's all relevant, really. Individuals use the scientific method to learn more about elements, atoms, and their placement on the periodic table. They conduct experiments using materials common in nature to explore how elements affect our...
