Properties such as magnetism, luster and malleability have been used to group together which category of elements on the periodic table?   Metals  
🗑
What best describes the organization of the periodic table of the elements?   Elements within a group have similar properties  
🗑
What elements would have similar properties to those of potassium?   Lithium and sodium  
🗑
Which of the following elements, hydrogen, fluorine or lead would have 7 valence electrons?   Fluorine  
🗑
What is the significance of metalloids in the periodic table?   They separate metals from nonmetals  
🗑
What element in Period 3 is known to be a highly reactive metal?   Sodium  
🗑
If an element has no electrons to share and is stable, what family is it found in?   Noble gases  
🗑
Where would a new highly reactive metal most likely be placed on the periodic table?   On the left side  
🗑
How is the current periodic table arranged?   By atomic number  
🗑
What elements are shiny, malleable, ductile, and good conductors of heat and electricity?   Metals  
🗑
Which element is the most reactive - calcium, beryllium, strontium or magnesium?   Strontium  
🗑

🗑
How would you describe the purpose for the bold staircase line on the right side of the periodic table?   Used to separate metals from nonmetals  
🗑
What characteristics do the elements on the far right side of the periodic table have in common?   They are found in elemental form in nature  
🗑
What best describes elements found in a column of the periodic table?   The elements have similar chemical properties  
🗑
What property is unique for each element?   The atomic number  
🗑
What are the changes in the physical state of elements in PERIOD 4?   From left to right - solid, liquid, gas  
🗑
What property best supports the statement that a material can be identified by its behavior when chemically combined?   Reactivity  
🗑
How would you describe the reactivity of alkali metals?   Reactivity increases down a group  
🗑
What characteristics of an element determines it's placement in the periodic table?   The number of protons  
🗑
Which element is the least reactive - carbon, hydrogen, helium or iodine?   Helium  
🗑
Which group contains elements with the most varied properties?   Transition metals  
🗑
What is a property of metalloids?   The ability to conduct electricity under certain conditions

🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
