Interactive Physics Modules: Matter Multimedia tutorial about the basics of atomic structure and how atoms interact to create more complex compounds. Instructional Resources / Useful web-sites The Periodic Table in its present form is the way the elements have always been categorized There is only one way to categorize the elements, consensus was easily achieved Science and its methods provide absolute truth rather than being tentative and evolving All that is to be known is known regarding atoms and elements Science is procedural more than creative Identify properties of common families of elements Explain how elements differ in terms of structural parts and electrical charges of atoms Gather and synthesize information about the Periodic Table Show how knowledge of chemistry is used in everyday lifeĭevelopment of periodic table element families of elements periodicity properties of matter: physical and chemical Examples: ductility, conductivity of heat and electricity, lustre, reactivity Students will relate the reactivity and stability of different families of elements to their atomic structure including alkali metals, alkaline earths, chalcogens, halogens, and noble gases. Students will investigate the characteristic properties of metals, non-metals, and metalloids and classify elements according to these properties. Students will: Students will investigate the development of the periodic table as a method of organizing Įlements. Finally, students learn that the Periodic Table continues to be useful as more is learned about the structural parts of atoms, their electrical charges, and their associated properties. They are also introduced to the idea that chemical changes can be explained in terms of the arrangement and motion of atoms and molecules.
They learn that vertical columns represent families of elements, related by common properties. Through the study of the development of the Periodic Table, students discover that unknown elements were predicted based on empty spaces in the table. Students also discover that there is an orderly progression from the lightest to the heaviest atoms and that this pattern is organized on the Periodic Table of elements. They learn that each atom has unique properties, depending upon the number and arrangement of the subatomic particles within it. In this unit students learn that all matter is composed of extremely small parts called atoms.
