Setting the Periodic Table
Its a Family Thing
Metals and Non Metals
Not-quite Metals
Reaching for the Stars
100
The atomic number of an atom is determined by the number of these particles.
What are protons
100
A column on the periodic table is called this
What is a family or group
100
These metals are always in transition.
What are the transition metals
100
This type of element is marked by a stair-step on the periodic table.
What are metalloids
100
Atoms are stripped of their electrons and the nuclei are packed close together in this state of matter.
What is plasma
200
In the curent periodic table elements are arrange by this.
What is atomic number
200
This noble family doesn't minglewith other families. Probably because they are so gassy.
What is noble gasses
200
This property of metals helps them transfer electricity and heat
What is conductivity
200
Metalloids have the properties of both of these types of elements.
What metals and nonmetals
200
Nuclei colliding together with enough energy to stick togeter is known as this.
What is fusion
300
Elements are made of these three particles.
What are protons, neutrons, and electrons
300
The family lives next door to the Alkali Metals.
What are Alkaline earth metals
300
This non metal comes with a breath of fresh air.
What is oxygen
300
This is the most common metalloid.
What is silicon
300
When two hydrogen nuclei undergo fusion they become this noble gas.
What is Helium
400
The atomic mass is based on the sum of these two subatomic particles.
What protons and neutrons
400
This is the most reactive family in the periodic neighborhood.
What are the Alkali Metals
400
This property of metals makes them perfect for wires.
What is ductility
400
This is the most common use for metalloids
What is electronics/microchips
400
This star burns by the process of nuclear fusion.
What is the sun
500
He created the first periodic table
Who is Dmitri Mendeleev
500
Each member of this family always wants one more electron.
What are the halogens
500
Nonmetals do not share this property of metals, making them easily crumble.
What is maleabillity
500
This property of metaloids means it can only conduct electricity under certain circumstances.
what is semiconducting
500
This giant explossion marks the end of a stars life.
What is supernova
