Table Terms
This is a type of element that is typically a hard, shiny solid and is a good conductor of heat and electricity.
What is a metal?
These are the metals that go from groups 3-12 of the Periodic Table and properties of finding valence electrons are different that other elements.
What is Transition Metals?
This is the number of groups in the Periodic Table.

What is Na?
This element is in period 2 and has 6 valence electrons.
What is Oxygen(O)?
This is a type of element that is usually a gas or a brittle solid at room temperature, not malleable or ductile and is a poor conductor of heat and electricity.
What is a non-metal?

What is a metalloid?
These are the metals in group 1 of the Periodic Table that are the most reactive group of metals. They form a +1 ion.
What is Alkali Metals?
This is what an element's groups determines.
What is number of valence electrons and chemical properties?
This element is the basis of all life on earth.
What is C?
This metalloid has 6 energy levels.
What is Polonium(Po)?
They arrange the elements by the number of electrons that are in the outer shell; elements in these have similar chemical and physical properties.
What is a group or famliy?
These are the non-metals in group 17 of the Periodic Table that are most reactive group of nonmetals. They form a -1 ion.
What is Halogens?
This is what a element's period determines.

Forms a -1 ion, used in pools to keep clean, but not Chlorine.
What is Br?
This metal has similar properties to Zinc and has 5 energy rings.
What is Cadmium(Cd)?
This is the rows in a Periodic Table that separate elements based on their energy levels.
What is a period?
These always have a full octet in their outermost energy shell.
What are Noble Gases?
Chlorine, Bromine, and Fluorine are in this same group because they have the same number of these
Valence electrons
This is represented by the symbol K.
