2. Locate the various groups and periods in the periodic table, state the special names, and describe the general properties associated with each.
3. Identify where metals, non-metals, and metalloids are located on the periodic table and explain how their physical & chemical properties differ from each other.
4. Identify the state of matter each element exists in at room temperature.
5. Write electron configurations of atoms and ions using noble gas notation.
6. Identify elements and their position on the periodic table based on their electron configuration and vice versa.
7. Compare the relative sizes of parent atoms and their resulting ions, and explain why this is so.
8. Identify, apply, and explain the periodic trends of atomic radius, ionization energy, and electronegativity.
9. Understand the connection between the organization of the atom and the organization of the periodic table.
