Element Project Pages

This is a list of the pages that will be placed in your element project.

Title Page - element names and/or symbols; highlight assigned alement

Density - table showing the densities of the four elements

States of Matter - give the state of matter at room temperature for each element; find a picture of each element

Element Trivia - find at least two items of interest about each element

Atomic Number - give the atomic number for each element

Protons - state the number of protons found in the nucleus of each element; write the notes definition of proton

Electrons - state the number of electrons found in the nucleus of each element; write the notes definition of electron

Neutrons - chart for each element with mass number, # of neutrons, and indicate radioactives; notes definition for neutron

Atomic Mass Calculations - chart for each element with isotope symbol, mass(amu's), %abundance, mass contribution, and the calculated atomic mass at the bottom of the chart

Half Life - chart for each element with isotope symbols and length of half-life; choose one isotope per element and calculate the mass and elapsed time after 4 half lives (beginning mass of sample is 2.00 grams)- chart results

Radioactive Decays - chart for radioisotopes of each element- isotope symbols, protons, neutrons, decay process

Nuclear Equations - choose 2 radioisotopes per element and write the nuclear equation for the decay process

Electron Configurations - write the electron configuration for each element

Noble Gas Notation - write the noble gas notation (shorthand form) for each element

Orbital Diagrams - draw orbital diagrams for each element

Electron Dot Formulas - write the electron dot formula for each element

Periodic Table Information - chart - element symbol, period #, Group# old system, Group# new system, group name

Element Characteristics - chart - element symbol, atomic radius, ionic radius, first ionization energy, electronegativity

Ions - write the formulas for the ions formed by your elements; identify the crystal structures formed

Covalent Compounds - use the electron dot structure to show how many sinlge covalent bonds an be formed by your nonmetal element(s); draw structures of at least two molecules that the element is in

Chemical Reactions - find at least two chemical reactions per element and write balanced equations for the process

Molar Mass - look up the molar mass for each element; define molar mass

Stoichiometry - use your chemical reactions page to help you create a total of four stoichiometry problems, one mole-mole, one mole-mass, one mass-mass, and the fourth mole-volume if you have an element that is a gas

Acids and Bases - research your elements to find the acidic or basic compounds which they can form
