Periodic Table FYI
WHAT THE HELIUM?! (2x)

The Greeks believed there were these 4 basic elements that compose the world
Water, Earth, Fire, Air

This mid-1800s scientist observed patterns in elements and created a periodic table by dividing them up into similar properties.
Dmitri Mendeleev

You find a shiny, solid material in the ground on a hot sunny day, you try to touch it but you burn your hands
Metal

The modern periodic table goes down in order of.... While Mendeleev's periodic table used...
Atomic numbers and Atomic Mass

Why shouldn't you trust atoms?
They make up everything

Name the 3 rules of giving an element a symbol
First letter: Capitalized, first letter of the name Second letter:Lowercase, used only if the first letter was already used OR Latin name (2x bonus if you said this!)
200
This early 1800s chemist suggested a symbolic system to describe elements using letters of either their common name or their Latin name.
Jons Jakob Berzelius

You see that Element "X" borders the "staircase" on the Periodic Table of Elements, you identify the element as a...
Metalloid

True/ False: Dmitri Mendeleev is a Latin scientist who published the first Periodic Table of Elements
False. Mendeleev is RUSSIAN!!!

Oxygen and Potassium went on a date, how did it go?
O K
300
List the characteristics of Non-metals
Dull, Brittle or will shatter when struck, Lower melting and boiling point than metals, Often a gas at room temperature, poor conductors of electricity and heat
300
This late 1700s this scientist classified the known elements into four groups: metals, gases, non-metals, and "earths" using physical properties
Antoine Lavoisier
300
You see strange coloured air after a chemistry experiment goes wrong, to your knowledge the room is at room temperature
Non-metal
300
Why is the Periodic table called the PERIODIC table?
Mendeleev observed that events happened in a regular pattern or Periodically
300
What is Mendeleev's favorite Periodic table making card game?
Solitaire
400
list the 7 characteristics of a Metal Hint: reactivity and density are some of the characteristics
Shiny (lustre), Malleable, Ductile, Good conductors of both electricity and heat, Solid at room temperature (2x if you said Mercury is liquid), Denser than non-metals, *active metals react with acid and very active metals react with water (3x if you said this)
400
This Scottish Chemist isolated non-reactive gases into a group that we now call the "Noble Gases"
William Ramsay
400
How are metalloids/semi-metals useful in electronics industry?
They have a partial ability to conduct electricity (from no ability to full conductivity).
400
How did Dalton find out the atomic mass for elements
By seeing their proportions when chemically combined with Oxygen

What do you call a girl that is made of Copper and Tellurium?
CuTe

Name 5 elements with a Latin origin for a symbol 2 elements named after a scientist 5 elements named after a place 1 elements named after a planet 1 element with a German origin for a symbol
-Sodium, potassium, iron, copper, silver, tin, antimony, gold, mercury, lead, -Curium, Einsteinium, Mendelevium, Nobelium, Bohrium, Copernicium -Scandium, Germanium, Europium, Polonium, Francium, Americium, Berkelium, Californium -Uranium, Neptunium, Plutonium, Cerium -Tungsten
500
This English Scientist discovered that the masses of the elements involved in chemical reactions are always in certain proportions, allowing a later chemist to organize the elements into a a Periodic Table
John Dalton

You see a strange shiny liquid on the ground. To your knowledge, the room is at room temperature. What is this?
A metal, (Mercury is liquid at room temperature)
500
Name the 3 classifications of elements and the Name of Group I: lithium, sodium, potassium as well as Group 0: Argon, Xenon
Metals, non-metals, metalloids/semi-metals -Alkali Metals and Noble Gases

2 chemists walk into the lab, the first one says "hand me a glass of pure H2O, the second says hand me a glass of pure H2O too! What happens to the second chemist?
The 2nd chemist dies: H2O2 (Hydrogen Peroxide)
