Updated Take Home Portion Of Periodic Table Test

ChemistryWiki | RecentChanges | Preferences

Attention All Students, there are two parts to the Updated Take Home portion of the Periodic Table Test.

1. Your Notes on Periodic Trend (Take Home Test)

You will need to print out a copy of this webpage. You are limited to one side of the paper unless you use figure/diagrams where you can go onto the back of the page (you can use back side as much space as the diagrams are). Information on this page can be in outline form but it needs to be understood by the teacher. A "solid" block of words is not what I am looking for. A mix of diagrams and text would work better (sorry all you English majors). Remember, this page is where you are showing me that you know the concept you will need to teach. A maximum score of 10pts will be given to this section.

2. Learner Notes on Periodic Trend ake Home Test)

Once you have finished teaching the concept to your "learner", the learner will need to explain what they have been taught. The learner will do this by printing out the above webpage and then writing what they have learned. Unlike the above section, the learner can write a block of text to explain what they have been taught. They are not required to make a diagram but can surely do it if it helps in their explanation. There is no length requirement for the learner (as short or as long as they need). Both the teacher (i.e. "my chemistry student") and the learner need to sign the bottom of this webpage. A maximum score of 10pts will be given to this section.

The learner must be out of high school (assumed older than 18yrs old) and can not be a teacher at our school (unless they are also one's parents).

3. Finished Product

Make sure that you have your name and period on both webpages and that you and your learner have signed and dated the appropriate webpage. Then staple them together and pass them into your teacher. Both section must be completed in paper, NO ELECTRONIC SUBMISSION WILL BE EXCEPTED.

Due Date: To be determined in class.

Chooses of Periodic Trends
For the following chooses, when you see the statement, explain the general trend, you must give both the trend and reason why for both Down a group and Across a period. Each should be a separate section.

1. Give the two major factors that contribute to the columbic force (CF) between the nucleus and the valence electrons. Then explain the general trends for CF. In a final sentence, explain if the valence electrons are more tightly held or more loosely held as you, 1) go down a group and 2) across a period.

2. Define Atomic Radii(size). Then , explain the general trends for AR. In a final sentence, explain if the valence electrons are more tightly held or more loosely held as you, 1) go down a group and 2) across a period and how it relates to the atomic radii/size.

3. Define Ionization Energy (IE). Then explain the general trends for IE. In a final sentence, explain how the IE relates to how tightly or loosely held the valence electrons are to the nucleus. Do not do Exception to the Across the period IE trend
