THIS IS THE BEGINNING OF YOUR STUDY GUIDE! THIS WILL CHANGE OFTEN ~ SO CHECK IT OFTEN!!! TEST IS MARCH 7th and MARCH 8th!!!!!

The test will be worth approximately 175 - 200 points. It will have T/F, multiple choice, fill in the blank, essay, short answers, matching, etc.

EXTRA CREDIT - Email Mrs. Allen by 10 pm TONIGHT (3/6/12) for an opportunity to complete extra credit. Title the subject of your email - "EXTRA CREDIT PERIODIC TABLE TEST"

YOU MUST STUDY THE CHAPTER THREE INFORMATION IN YOUR COMP BOOK! IF YOU ARE MISSING ANY OF THE WORKSHEETS, PLEASE EMAIL MRS. ALLEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Practice QUIZ: http://www.quia.com/quiz/2293018.html

YOUR HOMEWORK IS TO STUDY ALL OF YOUR NOTE CARDS, NOTES IN YOUR COMP BOOK AND YOUR POWERPOINT NOTES. YOUR TEST IS GOING TO BE ON THE FOLLOWING:

Miscellaneous Facts - that you need to know
1. How to draw a Bohr model of an atom using the K,L, M, shells (like the making model atoms lab you did)
2. Coal is mostly Carbon
3. Nonmetals are reactive and form compounds - Example: Iron and Oxygen can combine to form rust (Fe2O3)
4. Properties of nonmetals: poor conductors of heat and electricity, reactive with other elements, dull and brittle
5. All halogens are very reactive and found uncombined in nature.
6. Halogen means salt forming.
7. Hydrogen is the only element that does not belong into a family.

ASSIGNMENTS TO STUDY - the assignment will have this EXACT title:

WHAT TO STUDY!!!!!!!

1. Element note cards
2. Key terms  (examples, too) and questions – on note cards
3. "Intro to Atoms" - notes in comp book
4. “Intro to Atoms - Agenda" (Fill in the blanks)
5. “Atoms, Elements, and Periodic Table PowerPoint notes”
6. “Metals: Ch 3 section 3” - on note cards

11.   "Atoms, Elements, and The Periodic Table LAB" (potassium Permanganate)
12.   "Element/Periodic Table Webquest/Review"
13.   "Powerpoint - Counting Atoms"

You should be practicing the online review games and going to the online websites.

Email Mrs. Allen with any questions.


Why are family elements so reactive?

As with all families, these elements share traits. They are very reactive. Why? They all have one electron in their outer shell. That's one electron away from being happy (full shells). When you are that close to having a full shell, you want to bond with other elements and lose that electron. An increased desire to bond means you are more reactive. In fact, when you put some of these pure elements in water, they will cause huge explosions.


The Elements of Life website: http://www.windows.ucar.edu/tour/link=/earth/geology/life_elements.html&edu=mid

Some elements that are important for animals (including people) are calcium (Ca), for bones and muscles, chlorine (Cl) for digesting food, fluorine (F) for tooth enamel and iron (Fe) to help blood carry oxygen around the body.  Plants also need elements to survive and grow including magnesium (Mg) and chlorine (Cl) that help plants convert the Sun’s energy into food. Some plants, such as grass, contain silica (Si), which makes them very strong.
