HS-PS1-1 Matter and its Interactions

HS-PS1-1: Use the periodic table as a model to predict the relative properties of elements based on the patterns of electrons in the outermost energy level of atoms.
Clarification Statement: Examples of properties that could be predicted from patterns could include reactivity of metals, types of bonds formed, numbers of bonds formed, and reactions with
oxygen.
Assessment Boundary: Assessment is limited to main group elements. Assessment does not include quantitative understanding of ionization energy beyond relative trends.
Evidence Statements: HS-PS1-1

Engage
Build An Atom
Anticipatory Set
This could be used as both an engage and an exploration depending on the task. Ask students to build any atom. Refer to the location of the atom they built.
They may draw the atom they build. Write one or more patterns that you observed.

Flame Test Lab
The purpose is to observe the characteristic colors produced by certain metallic ions when vaporized in a flame and then to identify an unknown metallic ion by
means of its flame test.

Electron Configuration- Part 1
Students will be able to explain how electrons are located in energy levels and how to determine the number of valence electrons for atoms through completing
an inquiry-style paper.

Electron Configuration- Part 2
Students will be able to write electron configurations for elements including orbital box diagrams and shorthand notation by taking notes, watching videos, and
doing an activity.

In these lessons
Teachers Should: Introduce formal labels, definitions, and explanations for concepts, practices, skills or abilities.
Students Should: Verbalize conceptual understandings and demonstrate scientific and engineering practices.
Explanation Topics to Be Discussed in Teacher Directed Lessons (Disciplinary Core Ideas):
Concepts and Practices PS1.A: Structure and Properties of Matter
Each atom has a charged substructure consisting of a nucleus, which is made of protons and neutrons, surrounded by electrons.
The periodic table orders elements horizontally by the number of protons in the atom’s nucleus and places those with similar chemical properties in columns.
The repeating patterns of this table reflect patterns of outer electron states.
Periodic Table Scavenger Hunt
Students are using the periodic table to determine the number of particles in atoms, as well as the type of element represented.

Extension Activity Graphing Periodic Trends
Using the data from this interactive website, students will use Google Sheets or Excel to create graphs showing the periodic trends of Atomic Radii,Ionization
Energy, Electronegativity and Electron Affinity vs atomic number using data from the following website. Students can construct explanations for the graphs
showing the periodic trends.
