In this naming and covalent compounds worksheet, students answer 6 questions about ion notation, they make 6 ionic compounds, they make 6 covalent compounds and they name 10 compounds which are ionic, covalent or polyatomic.

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....

Lost an electron? You should keep an ion them. Young chemists learn qualitative analysis in the second lesson of an 11-part chemistry series. After observing reactions of simple salts, the teacher provides pupils with unknown...

In this chemical bonding activity, students review the different types of bonds and calculate the number of valence electrons in molecules. This activity has 11 matching and 15 multiple choice questions.

Resistance is not futile, it is voltage divided by current. The presentation goes in depth covering electric charges, conductors, insulators, electric fields, static charges, and circuits. The lesson is the 12th in a series of 26.

Eighth graders identify the types of bonds elements form. In this chemistry instructional activity, 8th graders represent valence electrons with dot structures. They draw and label different atoms.

Students are introduced to the periodic table. They find the common trends among the electron configurations and the names of certain groups of the table. Students explore the atomic mass, atomic number, mass number, mass and charge...

Students review atomic structure and then participate in a activity in which they categorize several "elements" into some form of order based on their properties. They discuss the trends they see. They also practice several electron...

After studying the different aspects of atoms and their reactivity, pupils will find this summary PowerPoint useful for review. Some of the slides are informative with labeled diagrams; others give important vocabulary. Teachers may want...

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 ionic bonding worksheet, students review the characteristics of ionic bonding, draw Lewis dot diagrams for elements, and write the chemical formula for ionic compounds. This worksheet has 8 drawings, 14 fill in the blank, and 6...

In this atomic theory worksheet, students use Planck's constant, Rydberg constant, and Avogadro's number to complete 20 multiple choice questions.

In this ionic bonding instructional activity, students observe diagrams about ionic bonds and crystal formation. They answer 37 short answer questions about the properties of monatomic ions, polytomic ions and write correct formulas.

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...

In this bonding worksheet, students combine the given atoms to make new neutral compounds. This worksheet has 22 problems to solve.

In this metals, non-metals, dot diagrams and ions worksheet, students read about each of these topics and they identify if 8 elements are metals or non-metals, they draw electron dot diagrams for 5 elements, they write the charge of 3...

Students interview the chemical elements. They research information about their element, such as: stable isotopes, valence electrons, number of subatomic particles. They create a yearbook page for their element, and a format to present it.

Even though the questions on this worksheet pertain to general chemistry, it was created for an AP biology course. It is crucial for biology learners to grasp these concepts as a foundation for biochemical processes that they will...

Students research the history and uses of the different elements in the periodic table. In this chemistry activity, students explain the significance of an element's valence electrons. They create a multimedia presentation of an element...

Learners use models to visualize molecular structures. Students read about Lewis dot structures, hybridization, and formal charge. Then learners build and draw the molecules and ions given. Students complete 11 pre-lab questions and 4...

Learners work together to explain the VSEPR theory and how it relates to molecules. They name electron pairs that can surround the central atom of an organism. They discuss the factors that determine the polarity of a molecule as well.

The fifth lesson of seven in the series outlines an in-depth analysis of the periodic table. After direct instruction, pupils take turns practicing in the group before beginning independent study. The assessments include a...

Young chemists have unknown compounds they need to sort. Performing three different tests on each, the chemical behaviors they observe become the basis for data analysis. 

The VSEPR Model of molecular structure is exhibited through this series of slides. The step-by-step process is listed, and then examples are provided. The graphics give a visual display of the spatial relationship between the atoms of...
