Name: ------------------------------------------------------- Grade 7- Section D,E,F,G Date: 26/02/2015

• It was once believed that --------------, --------------, ------------, and ----------------, in various combinations, made up all
objects.

• By the 1860s, scientists considered there to be at least 60 different basic substances, or ----------------------.

• Scientists found that many of these elements have similar ---------------------- and began ---------------------- them.

• Dmitri ----------------------- first organized the elements by arranging them in order of increasing --------------------------
------------ He observed that the properties of those elements were in a --------------, or regularly repeating, pattern.

• Mendeleev’s arrangement of the elements became known as the --------------------------------.

• Henry ------------------------- reorganized Mendeleev’s periodic table in order of increasing ---------------------------------

• Why The periodic table is useful? -----------------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------.

• -------------------------------------------

• --------------------------------------------

• ---------------------------------------------

• ---------------------------------------------

• The ---------------------------------------- is placed at the top of each square.

• The --------------------------------------- is an abbreviation for the element’s name.

• The first letter of the ----------------------------------------- is always capitalized, and any other letter is lowercase.

• The ---------------------------------------- is written under the symbol.

• All atoms of an element have the same number of ----------------------, but the number of ----------------- can vary.

• What is The average atomic mass of an atom?-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------.

• Average atomic mass is reported in ------------------------------------------------ (u).

• A zigzag line on the periodic table divides the three major categories of elements: ----------------------, -----------------,
and ----------------------------------.

• What are the Metals? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------.

• What is the difference between malleability and ductility? -------------------------------------------------------------------------

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

• Elements to the left of the zigzag line are metals, -------------------------------------------------.

• The elements to the right of the zigzag line are ------------------------------------.

• What are the nonmetals? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------.

• What are the metalloids? --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------.

• Each vertical column of elements on the periodic table is called a ------------------, or ---------------------.

• Elements in a group are similar because their atoms have the same number of -----------------------------.

• What are the valence electrons? ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

• Valence electrons participate in ------------------------------------------------.

• Each horizontal row of elements on the periodic table is called a -------------------------.

• ------------------------- and ------------------------------ properties of elements change in predictable ways from one end
of the period to the other.

• Atomic size ----------------------------------- as you move from left to right across a period.

• Elements in the middle of a period are the most -----------------------.

• As you move from left to right within a period, the --------------------------------------- of each element increases by 1.

• The -------------------------- and ---------------------------- are placed below the table to allow the table to be narrower.
