100
Give the Ion for Ca
Ca+2
100
Why are the Nobel Gases extremely Unreactive
They have a full valence shell of 8
200
My symbol is Na.?What’s my name?

200
Each Column on the Periodic Table is called a…?
Group or Family
200
This family is “headed” by Boron and includes elements with 3 valence electrons.

Poor Conductors Not Ductile Not Malleable Dull/Brittle
300
My symbol is Cl.?What’s my name?
Chlorine
300
The Group Number can be used to determine what…?
Valence Electrons
300
This elements in this ?family have 5 valence electrons and includes ?N, P, and As.
Nitrogen Family
300
Draw the Ions in this reaction S ---> Ca
S-2 ---> Ca+2
300
What is the most reactive metal family on the periodic table? Explain why they are so reactive.
Alkali Metals, because they have 1 valence electron which makes it easy to share because it only has to give up 1 electron to have a full shell
400
My symbol is Au.?What’s my name?
Gold
400
How are the elements arranged on the Periodic Table?
By the Atomic Number
400
The elements in this ?family have only ?one valence electron, ?such as Li, Na, and K.
Alkali Metals
400
Draw a Cation and an Anion
Answers may Vary… S-2 (Anion) Ca+2 (Cation)
400
Explain why Cations have a Positive Charge
Cations are sharing electrons therefore becoming more Positive
500
My symbol is Fe.?What’s my name?
Iron
500
For the most part, why do elements within the same group have similar properties?
Because they have the same # of Valence Electrons
500
This family is made ?up of elements with ?7 valence electrons, ?such as F, Cl, and I.
Halogens
500
How many groups on the periodic table can not form an ion with any other group? (other than it self)
2 4 & 8
