Lesson Plan for week ending 0301
Monday:

0227BW: The valence electrons of an atom have the highest energy levels and are involved in chemical bonding. Valence electrons help determine the chemical properties of an atom. A chemical bond is the force of attraction that holds atoms together; attraction causes the interaction of electrons between atoms.


0227CW: Read pages 358, 359 Complete fill-ins. Draw a model of your periodic table element (card project) showing the arrangement of electrons about the nucleus.

0227HW: Why do the elements in each group of the periodic table have similar properties? P 360, 361

Tuesday:

FCAT Writes-- no bellwork, classwork, or homework

Wednesday:

0229BW: The elements within each group of the periodic table have the same number of valence electrons. As a result, the elements in each group have similar properties.

0229CW: Read pages 360, 361 complete fill-ins. Write the answers to \\\"What are the trends in the Periodic Table\\\" lab on your classwork paper.

0229HW: How many valence electrons does Xenon 54 have? How many neutrons does the element Xenon have? Xenon is a noble gas and has 131.293 amu
LAB: 201

Thursday:

0301BW: Metal atoms react by losing their valence electrons. Non-metal atoms become stable when they gain or share electrons to have 8 valence electrons.

In all elements, the number of prtons equals the number of electrons. The amu, atomic mass units, is the total of the atomic number (protons) plus the neutrons.

0301CW: Read page 362, 363 Complete all fill-ins and questions. Write answers to p 363 1a, b, c.

0301HW: Review your bell work notes to prep for the Quiz on 10.1

Friday: Quiz on 10.1
