• Critical Thinking: Analyze how element properties are interconnected.
• Learner’s Mindset: Explore the dynamic nature of the periodic table.
• Communication: Clearly express understandings of element relationships.
How do the periodic trends (like electronegativity and atomic radius) relate to element properties?
What role do groups and periods play in predicting element behavior?
How does the periodic table help identify relationships between different elements?
Explain periodic trends and their impact on element properties.
Predict element behavior based on their position in the table.
Identify and compare relationships between elements.
• Pattern Recognition: Identify and interpret trends in the periodic table.
• Chemical Analysis: Analyze properties and behaviors of elements.
• Data Interpretation: Use the periodic table to draw conclusions about element interactions.
• HS-PS1-1: Use the periodic table as a model to predict the relative properties of elements based on the patterns of electrons in the outermost energy level of atoms.
• HS-PS1-2: Construct and revise an explanation for the outcome of a simple chemical reaction based on the outermost electron states of atoms, trends in the periodic table, and knowledge of the patterns of chemical properties.
