| how many periods are there, how many groups/families | 7, 18 |
| what is the 1st group called | alkali metals |
| what is the 2nd family called | alkaline earth metals |
| what is the 17th group called | halogens |
| what is the 18th family called | noble gases |
| what are noble gases | gases that do not react well with other elements |
| Name 3 characteristics of metals such as cobalt | shiny, solids at room temperature, good heat/electricity conductors |
| Name 3 characteristics of nonmetals such as oxygen | usually gases at room temperature, brittle solids, DO NOT conduct heat/electricity well |
| synthetic element | man-made element, above the atomic number 92 |
| if a metal can be easily hammered into a shape it is called | malleable |
| alkaline earth metals are | highly reactive |
| transition metals are | less reactive |
