5. Lightning Questions
How many protons and electrons are found in an atom of
Chlorine?
How many neutrons are found in an atom of Sodium (Na) that has a
mass number of 23 amu?
What happens to an atom when you add another proton?
How can you change the mass number of an atom of sodium?

Groups and Periods
Groups or families are vertical columns in the periodic table
Periods are horizontal rows in the periodic table.
The zig- zag line separates metals from non-metals
Group or family
Period
With the discovery of isotopes by Mosley in 1909, the Periodic
Table was reorganized by increasing atomic number (number of
protons).
This is modern Periodic Table we use today!

7. Valence Electrons
These are the electrons found in the last level of an atom.
They are the MOST important electrons in determining the reactivity
of an atom.
Elements with the same number of valence electrons will react
similarly.
As a rule elements in the same group have the same number of
valence electrons.
For example:Hydrogen, Lithium, Sodium etc all have 1 valence
electron.

Valence Electrons
Lithium is #3 in the periodic table. So it has THREE
electrons.
As we had stated before two electrons are in first level, leaving
ONE electron in level 2.
So Lithium has ONE valence electron.

9. Lightning Questions!!!
How many electrons are there in an atom of Sulfur (S)?
How many valence electrons are found in an atom of Sulfur?
Name an element that would have similar chemical properties to
Sulfur.

10. Reactivity and the groups
Some elements are more reactive than others. Why?
Valence electrons!
All atoms want a full octet (8 valence electrons). Think about
elements like fluorine or chlorine. Theyre so close to having 8
valence electrons. Are they reactive?
What about elements in group 1? Reactive or not?
Group 2 elements?
Group 4?
11. Ca +2 Cations and AnionsN-3
- Metals lose their valence electrons to form cations
12. Cations = positive. (Cats whiskers)Click here for: Cation
clip
- Nonmetals will gain enough electrons to form anions. They will take as many electrons they needto get 8valence electrons.
13. Anions = negative (An means to negate)Click here for:Anion

Mr. Lopezs science class is playing an educational game to study
the periodictable. He gives Trahn a card with some clues to help
him identify a particular group on the periodic table. Below is
Trahns card.
12
Which chemical group
1.Reacts with water to form basic solutions
2.Readily combines in nature to form other compounds
3.Loses 2 outer energy level electrons to form +2 ions
Trahns card describes which group on the periodic table?
F. Group 1
G. Group 2
H. Group 16
I. Group 18

Julio is given an unknown element to study. After carefully
analyzing his element he arrives at the following
conclusions.
His element has a very low density and when it reacts with other
elements it gains 3 electrons to form an anion with a -3
charge.
In which of the following groups could we find Julios
element?
A) Group 3
B) Group 5
C) Group 13
D) Group 15

3.Suppose a scientist makes an unexpected discovery about the
possible existence of a new element. The finding does not fit well
with the initial hypothesis. The scientist is a member of a team of
researchers. If the team behaves according to the best principles
of scientific inquiry, which of the following would NOT
occur?
A) rejection of the finding as being impossible.
B)willingness to repeat the studies that led to the finding
for
confirmation.
C)urging the scientist to communicate findings to other
researchers.
D) insistence on reviewing all data carefully and systematically
for any errors.
