🗑
show formula that gives information about the proportion of atoms in a molecule  
🗑
chemical property   show
🗑
show a substance that is composed of two or more atoms that are bonded together

show a substance that is made of only one type of atom  
🗑
show levels of energy surrounding the nucleus occupied by electrons, also known as orbitals or shells  
🗑
extended structure   show
🗑
show vertical column in the periodic table; in their neutral states, each element in a group shares the same or similar number of 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.
