MOTIVATION
Activity 1: Sort Me Out!
Goal – to sort the contents of Ding Dong according to their similarities

Procedure:
1. The class will be divided into 2 groups.
2. Materials will be given to each group.

ENGAGE - plastic cellophanes
- Ding Dong snack
c. Establishing a purpose for the lesson 3. When the teacher gives the GO signal, the students will now start classifying based on similarity the contents of the DING DONG using their own
strategy.
4. When done, please your group should raise your right hand to be recognized, the first group to finish will receive a simple reward.

Guide Questions:
1. What are the different contents of the DING DONG mixed nuts snack?
2. What are the characteristics of the mixed nuts contents that made you decide to group them together?
3. What is the strategy done by your group to finish as fast as you can?

PERIODICAL TABLE OF ELEMENTS INTERACTIVE DISCUSSION
The periodic table is a tabular arrangement of chemical elements that is arranged by increasing atomic number and groups elements according to
recurring properties.
The seven rows of the periodic table are called periods. The rows are arranged so that metals are on the left side of the table and nonmetals are on
the right side. The columns are called groups. Groups contain elements with similar properties.
ORGANIZATION
The structure of the periodic table makes it possible to see relationships between elements at a glance and predict properties of unfamiliar, newly
discovered, or undiscovered elements.
 Periods
There are seven rows of the periodic table, which are called periods. Element atomic number increases moving from left to right across a period.
Elements toward the left side of a period are metals, while those on the right side are nonmetals. Moving down a period on the table adds a new
electron shell.

Groups
The columns of elements are called groups or families. Groups are numbered from 1 (the alkali metals) to 18 (the noble gases). Elements with a group
share a valence electron configuration. Elements within a group display a pattern with respect atomic radius, electronegativity, and ionization energy.
Atomic radius increases moving down a group, as successive elements gain an electron energy level. Electronegativity decreases moving down a
group because adding an electron shell pushes the valence electrons further from the nucleus. Moving down a group, elements have successively
lower ionization energies because it becomes easier to remove an electron from the outermost shell.

Blocks
Blocks are sections of the periodic table that indicate the outer electron subshell of the atom. The s-block includes the first two groups (the alkali metals
and the alkaline earths), hydrogen, and helium. The p-block includes groups 13 to 18. The d-block includes groups 3 to 12, which are transition metals.
The f-block consists of the two periods below the main body of the periodic table (the lanthanides and actinides).

Metals, Metalloids, Nonmetals

The three broad categories of elements are metals, metalloids or semimetals, and nonmetals. Metallic character is highest at the bottom lefthand corner
of the periodic table, while the most nonmetallic elements are in the upper righthand corner.
The majority of chemical elements are metals. Metals tend to be shiny (metallic luster), hard, conductive, and capable of forming alloys. Nonmetals tend
to be soft, colored, insulators, and capable of forming compounds with metals. Metalloids display properties intermediate between those of metals and
nonmetals. Toward the right side of the periodic table, the metals transition into nonmetals. There is a rough staircase pattern—starting at boron and
going through silicon, germanium, arsenic, antimony, tellurium, and polonium—that identified the metalloids. However, chemists increasingly categorize
other elements as metalloids, including carbon, phosphorus, gallium, and others.

A. Dmitri Mendeleev
B. Henry Moseley
C. John Newlands
D. Johann Dobereiner

2. Which of the following choices is NOT TRUE regarding John Newlands work?
