Assembling a Periodic Table Williamsburg High School for Architecture and Design Mr. Quinn and Ms. Tom 11/4/13
Aim • How can periodic trends be used to classify unknown elements?
Homework • Write a 1-page explanation of why you organized your periodic table in the way that you did. • DUE FRIDAY
Notes • Don’t organize A, Q, X, and Y! • The elements will not form a perfect rectangle
Examples • Unstable oxides and chlorides are often in the same group as Ne • Melting points generally increase down groups • Look at the phases on the periodic table for hints • Same hydride/oxide/chloride and much different MP/IE means different groups
