There are this many elements on the periodic table (in 2024). 

118

The problem with power plants releasing thermal energy into a river is that it does this. 

Hurts/kills/threatens existence of aquatic (in water) organisms. 

100

This is formed when two different types of atoms chemically bond together.

A compound (type of molecule).

100

This type of renewable resource works best in the desert where there is little wind but lots of sun.

Solar panels

Sodium Chloride (NaCl) is formed in a chemical reaction between sodium (Na) and Chlorine (Cl2). From this information, we know that sodium chloride is this.

A compound. 

200

These 3 group numbers on the periodic table contain the most reactive elements on the periodic table. 

Groups 1,2, 17

200

Burning coal does these two things to the environment.

Adds air pollution + causes acid rain

200

Burning coal does these two things to the environment.  

Acid Rain and causes global warming. 

200

Acid rain happens when pollutants are released into this.

The air.

This equation shows two different elements combining to form this. 


Mg + S = MgS

One Molecule or compound. 

300

This is the group that has the following elements in it: Mg, Ca, Ba.

Group 2 (reactive).

300

These are the risks of nuclear power.

These are the benefits of nuclear power.

Risks: radioactive wastes, nuclear meltdown

Benefits: doesn't pollute

300

These are the risks of nuclear power. 

These are the benefits of nuclear power.

Radioactive waste and possible nuclear meltdown. 

Doesn't pollute. 

300

This group of natural resources leads to an increased amount of atmospheric carbon dioxide.

Fossil Fuels: Coil, Oil, Natural Gas

300

Identify which of these elements is most reactive. K or Kr? Be ready to explain how you know. 

K is in group 1 (most reactive) and Kr is in group 18 (non-reactive) so K is most reactive. 

400

The organization of elements in the Periodic Table is arranged by this. 

Left to right by increasing atomic number. 

400

Mr. Tell read that the amount of fossil fuels available is declining (going down) which is leading to less supply for cars. Describe what would happen as a result. 

Fossil fuel price would go up.

People would start using more renewable resources. 

400

This is the reason that Gold (Au) is below Copper (Au) on the periodic table.

Gold (Au) has a greater atomic number and a greater atomic mass than Copper (Cu).

400

Geothermal, solar, biomass, and wind are all this type of natural resource.

Renewable

400

Based on its position on the Periodic Table,which of these elements is a nonmetal: K, V, Si, or F.

K Group 1 (metal)

V Group 5 (metal)

Si Group 14 (metalloid)

F Group 17 (non-metal)

500

This subparticle of the atom has no weight which is why it isn't included in the atomic mass. 

Electron

Fossil fuels are cheap and easy to buy right now. However, these are the disadvantages for using fossil fuels.

1. Produce smog and air pollution.

2. Limited supply--will run out eventually. 

500

This category of elements has high luster, high malleability, high ductility, and high boiling and melting points.

Metals

500

This is the other name for solar panels.

Photovoltaic Cells

The horizontal rolls are called this.

The vertical columns are called this.

Another name for the vertical columns is this.
