The periodic table one
Elements in the periodic table are arranged by their atomic number which is determined by the
number of protons each element contains. Using this rule gives rise to g_______ of elements with
similar chemical and physical properties. There are eight distinct groups of elements, for example
group one elements are the reactive alkaline metals. There are also 30 elements known as the
transitional metals. There are five periods or rows. Each e__________ has its own unique
symbol which is used all over the World to save time. Find the symbols for the following
elements: Sodium, Gold, Iron, Oxygen, Nitrogen and Neon ?

Understanding materials one
All materials, c___________ or chemicals are made from matter or atoms of
elements. There are just over 100 elements in the periodic table that combine together
in different ways to give rise to all the different types of materials that we use and see
every day. Some materials are extremely simple, containing only one or two different
e__________, where as others like biological molecules contain many different types
of elements. What is the definition of a pure substance ?

Understanding materials two
Atoms of different elements found in the p_________ table are the building blocks of all
materials. There are over 30 million materials made from just over 100 elements. In iron, all the
atoms are the same, because iron is an element. In a material like steel, all the atoms are not the
same. Steel contains iron atoms, carbon atoms and other metals atoms like chromium and nickel.
Iron, the pure element is like any other metal, but it rusts, combining readily with o________ and
water. Steel which does not rust is also much stronger. That’s why we use the majority of iron for
making steel. What is a metal alloy and give two examples ?

Understanding elements
Each element has an internationally recognised symbol and unique atomic and mass number.
Atoms of different elements like sodium (reactive group I metal) and chlorine (reactive group VII
non metal gas) are all made from three identical sub atomic particles. Elements are made from
e_________, protons and neutrons. The only difference between elements is the number of each
sub atomic particle. Therefore, the number of electrons, protons and neutrons each element
contains determines all their physical and chemical properties. What makes a reactive metal like
s_______, simply 11 electrons and protons and 12 neutrons. What makes a reactive gas like
chlorine, simply 17 electrons and protons and 20 neutrons and that’s it !!

Some elements like carbon and hydrogen have naturally occurring isotopes. Atoms
of isotopes like hydrogen are made up of atoms of different m_______. The number
of protons in isotopes of the same element is always identical, but the number of
n________ is different. Isotopes of the same element have identical chemical

Understanding allotropes of atoms
Some non-metals like metals can also build giant structures by sharing electrons. In these
structures, every atom is joined to the next atom by a very strong c_________ bond. These
examples of giant covalent structures have different properties to simple covalent molecules.
They are very hard and have high melting and boiling points. For example, there are three forms
of c________: Diamond, Graphite and Buckminster fullerene. Each allotrope of carbon is
unique. Explain why diamond is the hardest substance on Earth ?

Relative atomic mass one
Each e_________ in the periodic table has a unique atomic number and relative atomic
mass. We can use the atomic number and mass number to build a complete picture of an
atom. The atomic number of an atom tells us the number of protons found in element’s
nucleus. Subtracting the atomic number from the m______ number gives the number of
neutrons. In an uncharged element the number of protons equals the number of electrons.
Work through the four examples below, giving the number of neutrons, protons and
electrons ?

Relative atomic mass two
Single atoms have a very s_______, almost negligible mass. The mass is so small that it makes it
impossible to use in calculations. Instead, an element’s mass is compared with other elements.
Relative atomic masses has been calculated for all elements, so that we can compare the mass of
one element relative to another. For example: hydrogen has a mass of one on this scale,
h________ is four times heavier, at four. Carbon is twelve times heavier, at twelve. Link the
relative atomic mass of an element with the number of protons and neutrons that each element
contains. Why do electrons appear not to contribute to the mass of an element ?

Elements and electron shells one
The atomic number of an element also tells us the number of electrons that an element has.
These electrons are arranged in s_______ or orbits around the positive nucleus. These
shells are also sometimes called e_______ levels. Electrons start filling the inner shell
first. The inner shell contains two electrons. The next two shells each contain eight
electrons. The fourth shell can contain up to eighteen electrons. Look at the first six
elements: Hydrogen, Helium, Lithium, Beryllium, Boron and Carbon. How do the number
of electrons found in the element’s outer shell relate to their position in the period table ?

electron shell is f_______ a new one begins to fill with electrons. It is the electron
arrangement of an element that determines its c__________ properties. During chemical

Group VIII of the periodic table contains a family of very stable non-metals known as the
Noble gases. This group contains h________, neon, argon and krypton. They are all
monatomic colourless gases. All but helium are found in low quantities in our atmosphere.
Helium is found trapped under the bedrock along with deposits of n_________ gas.
Helium is so light that the Earth’s gravity is not strong enough to keep it in our
atmosphere. Eventually we will run out of helium as it escapes the Earth’s gravitational
pull. Give two uses helium and neon ?
