Post 6 Electronic Structures

We did another worksheet on the periodic table involving finding the different elements and where they would be place on the table. It was a fun but tedious task that involved 42 different elements in which we separated them through metal, metalloids, and non-metals. We then grouped them in columns based off of reaction in which Ah = Na (1+) and Ak = Cl (1-) before ordering them through density. We then fine tuned the chart by looking at ionization, which was the last thing we considered, and trying to keep certain elements we were already aware of in certain areas. In the end, our density across the periods were slightly off. Regardless, you can't help but respect those who have made the period table such an easy chart to maneuver.
