Questions: B. Periodic table 1. Write the elemental symbols and atomic numbers from Procedure A in the proper boxes on the blank periodic table in the report sheet. Write the group numbers on the top of the representative element vertical columns using both numbering systems. Write the period numbers for each of the horizontal rows. Draw a heavy line to separate the metals and nonmetals. 2. Six of the fourteen actinides were named for scientists. Write the elemental symbols and atomic numbers in the proper boxes on the blank periodic table in the report sheet for the elements named for the following famous scientists: Marie Curie (known for her pioneering work on radioactivity), Albert Einstein (developed the theory of general relativity), Dmitri Mendeleev (created the periodic table), and Alfred Nobel (inventor of dynamite and sponsor of the Nobel prizes). 3. Use colored pencils to label and shade the columns that contain the alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, halogens, and noble gases.

Solution Steps

To complete this step, you need to write the elemental symbols and atomic numbers from Procedure A on the blank periodic table. Additionally, write the group numbers on the top of the representative element vertical columns using both numbering systems (IUPAC and old system). Write the period numbers for each of the horizontal rows. Draw a heavy line to separate the metals and nonmetals.

Identify the six actinides named for scientists and place their elemental symbols and atomic numbers in the proper boxes on the blank periodic table. The elements named for the following scientists are:

• Marie Curie: Curium (Cm), Atomic Number 96
• Albert Einstein: Einsteinium (Es), Atomic Number 99
• Dmitri Mendeleev: Mendelevium (Md), Atomic Number 101
• Alfred Nobel: Nobelium (No), Atomic Number 102

Use colored pencils to label and shade the columns that contain the alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, halogens, and noble gases. The specific groups are:

• Alkali metals: Group 1 (IA)
• Alkaline earth metals: Group 2 (IIA)
• Halogens: Group 17 (VIIA)
• Noble gases: Group 18 (VIIIA)
