Learning Objectives
C1a.5b
This PowerPoint file contains some Learning
Objectives for this topic in the EDEXCEL
specification. Only a limited amount of colour
has been used on these slides, but of course you
can customise them in any way you wish. As well
as introducing each lesson with the relevant
slide, and using the slide to summarise at the
end of the lesson, you may also find the slides
useful for a quick revision course. So that you
can tell when to stop clicking, the last line
(only) on each slide has a full stop.
Chapters 4, 5 and 27 EDEXCEL C1a.5b (5.1 7,
5.9 10, 5.12 15, 5.18 22)
2
The Periodic Table Chapter 4 You
should learn

• that the periodic table is an example of how a
  scientific theory can predict the discovery of
  new elements
• how the periodic table was devised, referring to
  atomic number. H

3
The Periodic Table Chapter 4 You
should learn

• that all atoms of the same element have the same
  number of protons
• that elements with similar properties appear in
  the same vertical column (group)
• why elements are arranged in rows (periods) and
  columns (groups)
• to use the periodic table to find the symbol of
  an element
• locate the positions in the periodic table of the
  alkali metals, halogens, noble gases and
  transition metals.

4
The Periodic Table Chapter 4 / 27 You
should learn

• how to use flame tests to identify the presence
  of a particular metal
• to identify and recall the position of metals and
  non-metals in the periodic table.

5
The Periodic Table Chapter 4 You should
learn

• the change in reactivity of the alkali metals
  with increasing atomic number, as shown by their
  reactivity with water.

6
The Periodic Table Chapter 4 / 27 You
should learn

• the colours formed by transition metals with
  sodium hydroxide solution to identify iron,
  copper and zinc
• the properties of iron, copper, silver and gold,
  and explain their uses.

7
The Periodic Table Chapter 5 You
should learn

• the colour, physical states at room temperature
  and the trends in boiling points of the halogens
• that elements in the same group of the periodic
  table have similar chemical properties, as shown
  by the halogens
• the change in reactivity of the halogens going
  down the group, as shown by displacement
  reactions with solutions of other halides

8
The Periodic Table Chapter 5 You
should learn

• the properties of chlorine and iodine, and
  explain their uses.

9
The Periodic Table Chapter 5
You should learn

• that the noble gases as chemically inert compared
  with other elements
• recall that there is usually a gradual change in
  properties of the elements from the top to the
  bottom of each group
• the properties of helium, neon and argon, and
  explain their uses.
