  • Q4
    What data from the table above supports the claim that sample 1 is the only metal?
    Question Image
    Sample 1 because it is shiny and a good conductor of electricity
    Sample 2 only because it is shiny and solid at room temperature
    Sample 3 only because it is the only sample that is a liquid at room temperature
    Samples 1 and 2 because both samples are shiny and solid at room temperature

    They are all metals
    They have the same number of valence electrons
    They are all nonmetals
    They have a full outer shell of electrons

  • Q6
    Which statement below correctly describes what changes when moving downwards from fluorine to chlorine on the periodic table? (DOK 1)
    The ionic charge of the elements changes from positive to negative
    The number of valence electrons increases
    The classification changes from non metal to metal
    The number of total electrons increases

    Question Image
    Sulfur
    Tin
    Silicon
    Carbon

  • Q8
    Hydrogen is typically placed at the top of Group 1 on the Periodic Table. However, Group 1 consists of the alkali metals and hydrogen is not a metal. What reason best explains why hydrogen is placed in this group? (DOK 3)
    There isn’t a space available to place hydrogen with the other nonmetals
    Hydrogen and the other alkali metals have similar physical properties
    Hydrogen was the first element to be discovered so it is placed first on the periodic table
    Hydrogen has the same number of valence electrons as the alkali metals
