11. In the boxes below, draw what the particles look like in each state of matter and label them! (3 points)
Metals
Non-Metals
WEDNESDAY: Periodic Table (worth 33 percent)
Metalloids
Stable
Reactive
Groups
Periods
1. _____________________ are mostly gases, not very dense, and are good insulators because they do NOT allow
heat or electricity to travel through them.
2. The noble gas family is the most ___________________ group because they have 8 valence electrons and do not
easily react with other elements.
3. The horizontal rows on the periodic table are called _________________________.
4. ______________________ have properties of both metals and non-metals and located on the staircase.
5. Groups 1, 2, and 17 are the most _____________________ groups.
6. The vertical columns on the periodic table are called _________________________.
7. ______________________ are mostly shiny, solid, and good conductors located on the left side of the staircase.
