1. “I Can” Study Guide Unit 1-3
I can define the general characteristics of an atom and its sub-atomic parts
I can explain the basic statements made by Atomic Theory and its historical setting
I can define what an element is, their source, and how they differ from other forms of matter
I can differentiate (simply) between nuclear fission and nuclear fusion
I can compare the complexity and rarity of various elements with some examples
I can summarize the Law of Conservation of Matter and recognize examples that demonstrate it
I can explain how and why the periodic table was developed and its historical setting and significance
I can recognize and locate a series, group, and period on the periodic table
I can locate, name, and explain the data found on a typical periodic table box
I can predict relationships between elements given their location on the periodic table
I can recall frequently used elements by name and symbol (from examples, labs, demos)
I can use a periodic table as a tool to learn information about any element
I can differentiate between Ions & Isotopes as well as between Atomic Number & Atomic Mass
I can explain the criteria for a chemical versus a physical characteristic and how they are related
I can list both physical and chemical properties of matter
I can conclude if a chemical change and / or a physical change has taken place in a situation
