Periodic Table Activity

The document provides instructions and questions to complete worksheets using information from the periodic table. It asks the student to find atomic symbols, numbers, masses, and other properties for various elements. Key terms are defined, such as atomic number and mass. Questions assess understanding of comparisons between elements, such as which has more protons or electrons. The student is asked to look up elemental information and provide short answers using the periodic table as a reference.

PERIODIC TABLE
Directions: Use a Periodic table to find the information asked for below:
1. What is the atomic number of: 2. What is the atomic mass of:
Calcium 20 Calcium 40
Iron 26 Iron 56
Gold 79 Uranium 238
Uranium 92 Copper 64

3. How many protons do the following have?


Calcium 20
Gold 79
Copper 29
Iron 26

4. How many electrons do the following have?


Gold 79
Iron 26
Copper 29
Uranium 92

5. Does mercury have more protons and electrons than tin? Answer: yes, because the number of protons and
electrons of mercury are 80 and the protons and electrons of tin are 50 only.

6. Is mercury a heavier element than tin? Answer: yes, because the atomic mass of mercury is 200 and the atomic
mass of tin is only at 119.

7. Does potassium have more electrons than neon? Answer: yes, because the electrons that potassium has are 19 and
neon has only 10 electrons there for potassium has more electrons than neon.

8. Does hydrogen have more electrons than Uranium? Answer: No because hydrogen has only one electron and
uranium has 92 electrons so that specifically proves that uranium has more electrons than hydrogen.

9. Which has more protons, sulfur, or iodine? Answer: Iodine, because iodine has 53 protons while sulfur has only 16
protons so again that proves that iodine has more protons thank sulfur

10. Write the symbols or the names for each of these elements:

Chlorine Cl Zn Zinc

Copper Cu Helium He

Potassium K Iron Fe

Silver Au P Phosphorus

Na Sodium Ne Neon
