​Conclusion

The Periodic Table is arranged chronologically (1,2,3...) by the number of protons (atomic number)

Properties are used to determine the general location of the element on the Periodic Table (metals to the left, nonmetals to the right).

The​ periodic table is organized (into groups) based on how the elements react with each other.

34

Multiple Choice

How are elements arranged into rows on the Periodic Table?

1

Chronologically based on atomic number

2

Alphabetically based on element name

3

Alphabetically based on element symbol

4

Chronologically based on atomic mass

35

Multiple Choice

The atomic number tells us the number of

1

atoms in the element

2

protons in one atom of the element

3

neutrons in one atom of the element

4

protons and neutrons in one atom of the element
