Chemistry #2 The Periodic Table 📓 Flashcards
Okay, lets start this out with some singing… You don’t have to memorize this song I made but it will definitely help you!
Verse 1:
We start with Hydrogen, the first on the list
Atomic number one, it can’t be missed
Followed by Helium, with two electrons
It’s used in balloons and medical reasons
Chorus:
The periodic table, it’s a chemistry thing
Elements arranged, in a row and a ring
From Lithium to Lawrencium, we learn them all
Just remember their symbols, and you won’t fall
Verse 2:
Beryllium and Boron are next in line
Carbon, Nitrogen, Oxygen, and Fluorine
Neon, Sodium, Magnesium, and Aluminum
These elements, they’ve got some serious class, son
Chorus:
The periodic table, it’s a chemistry thing
Elements arranged, in a row and a ring
From Lithium to Lawrencium, we learn them all
Just remember their symbols, and you won’t fall
Verse 3:
Silicon, Phosphorus, Sulfur, Chlorine
Argon, Potassium, Calcium, Scandium
Titanium, Vanadium, Chromium, Manganese
Iron, Cobalt, Nickel, Copper, Zinc, Gallium
Chorus:
The periodic table, it’s a chemistry thing
Elements arranged, in a row and a ring
From Lithium to Lawrencium, we learn them all
Just remember their symbols, and you won’t fall
Verse 4:
Germanium, Arsenic, Selenium, Bromine
Krypton, Rubidium, Strontium, Yttrium
Zirconium, Niobium, Molybdenum, Technetium
Ruthenium, Rhodium, Palladium, Silver, Cadmium
Chorus:
The periodic table, it’s a chemistry thing
Elements arranged, in a row and a ring
From Lithium to Lawrencium, we learn them all
Just remember their symbols, and you won’t fall
Verse 5:
Tin, Antimony, Tellurium, Iodine
Xenon, Cesium, Barium, Lanthanum
Cerium, Praseodymium, Neodymium, Promethium
Samarium, Europium, Gadolinium, Terbium
Chorus:
The periodic table, it’s a chemistry thing
Elements arranged, in a row and a ring
From Lithium! Yay!
What is the periodic table?
The periodic table is a tabular display of the chemical elements arranged according to their atomic structure.
What is the symbol for oxygen?
O, which stands for “Oh my goodness, I need to breathe!”
Who is credited with creating the first periodic table?
Dmitri Mendeleev, a Russian chemist who probably had a lot of fun arranging all those elements.
What is the atomic number of gold?
79, which is also the number of reasons why you should treat yourself like royalty. 😉
What is a group on the periodic table?
A group is a vertical column of elements that share similar properties. Think of it like a family reunion, but for chemical elements.
Which alkali metal is the softest and can be cut with a butter knife?
That would be cesium, which must have a really gentle personality.
How many elements are there in the periodic table?
There are currently 118 elements in the periodic table.
What is the symbol for gold?
The symbol for gold is Au
What is the lightest element in the periodic table?
The lightest element in the periodic table is hydrogen, with an atomic number of 1.
What is the symbol for Carbon?
“C” stands for “Crazy about Chemistry!”
How many elements are there in the periodic table?
There are 118 elements, or as I like to call them, “118 little building blocks that make up everything around us!”
How are elements arranged on the periodic table?
They’re arranged by atomic number, which is just a fancy way of saying “how many protons each atom has.”
What group on the periodic table contains the Noble Gases?
Group 18, also known as “The Party Group” because the Noble Gases don’t like to react with other elements and just hang out and have a good time.
What is the most abundant gas in Earth’s atmosphere?
Nitrogen, aka “Noble gasbag” because it’s pretty chill and doesn’t react much with other elements.
