Periodic Trends Lab
Grade Level: High School
Discipline: Chemistry
Standards: Texas State Standards
(2) Scientific processes. The student uses scientific practices to solve investigative questions. The student is expected to: (H) organize, analyze, evaluate, make inferences, and predict trends from data; and (I) communicate valid conclusions supported by the data through methods such as lab reports, labeled drawings, graphs, journals, summaries, oral reports, and technology-based reports. (5) Science concepts. The student understands the historical development of the Periodic Table and can apply its predictive power. The student is expected to: (C) interpret periodic trends, including atomic radius, electronegativity, and ionization energy, using the Periodic Table.
Are you ready to teach your students about the properties of ionization energy, atomic radius and electronegativity? Check out this lab and help your students understand how certain properties of elements on the periodic table increase or decrease as they move across the periodic table.
