periodic table

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Term
Definition
matter   anything that has mass and takes up space  
🗑
mass   the material/stuff that matter is made up of- it can be measured  
🗑
space/volume   the specific area/ place that matter takes up  
🗑
electron   particle of an atom with a negative charge,moves around the nucleus and has an attractive force that allows it to bond with other atoms creating everything in the universe.  
🗑
neutron   particle of an atom with a positive charge located inside the nucleus  
🗑
periodic table   large grid that identifies and classifies all of the elements by their chemical and physical properties  
🗑
element   the simplest substances that cannot be broken down/ they make up all matter they make up all matter in the universe.  
🗑
periods/rows   rows that tell how many energy levels each elements has for the electrons to move around.  
🗑
groups or family/columns   columns that tell how many valence electrons each element has/ the number of electrons that can move on its outer shell/ energy level  
🗑
valence electrons   the electrons that move on the outer shell / energy level of an atom  
🗑
atomic number   how many protons an element has inside the nucleus usually is same number of neutrons and electrons  
🗑
atomic mass   the measurement of the mass for an elements atoms  
🗑
chemical property   the ability of substances to combine with one another forming and different compounds and molecule  
🗑
physical property   the state of matter and appearance of a substance  
🗑
ionic bond   when elements either lose or gain an electron during bonding  
🗑
covalent bond   when elements share electrons during bonding  
🗑
chemical change/reaction   elements bond together through the attractive force of electrons crating some type of reaction and change  
🗑
compound molecule   two or more elements combine together in a specific ratio/pattern creating a whole new and different substance  
🗑
mixture   two or more substances combine together keeping their original properties the do not change into a new substance or compound  
🗑
Nobel Gases   all of the elements in group number 18 they are the most stable elements because they have eight electrons in their outer shell  
🗑
Hologens   all of the the elements in group # 17 they are very reactive bonding easily with elements in group #1 because they have seven valence electrons.  
🗑
alkali metals   all of the elements in group #1- they are very reactive because they have only one valence electron.  
🗑
metalloids   elements between metals and non-metals that can react either way, they have 3-7 valence electrons.  
🗑


   

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.
