Arranged periodic table by atomic number
This nitrogen group element is a common ingredient in rat poison.
Arsenic
This element is used in photographic flashes and is the white in fireworks. It is also used to build lightweight building materials such as that used in bikes and aircraft.
Magnesium
Compounds of this element are added to toothpaste and drinking water to prevent tooth decay.
Fluoride
This inner transition metal is a main component of your CD's and DVD's.
Gadolinium
This element will literally melt in your hand. It is used as a semi-conductor chip in solar panels. It also makes lasers that have blue lights which would increase the storage capacity of DVDs.
Gallium
This element is the main element in the sun. It is also used by deep sea divers to prevent the "bends".
Helium
Which element is called "flammable air" because it burns when ignited in air? This property led to the Hindenburg disaster.
Hydrogen
Which element is not considered part of any group?
Hydrogen
This element is needed in our body to prevent against the growth of goiters. It is also used as a disinfectant.
Iodine
This element used to be used in paint, fishing sinkers, gasoline, utensils, etc. until it was discovered to be poisonous.
Lead
This element was originally in 7-up and is used to cure bipolar disorder it is also found in batteries.
Lithium
A compound of this element is an active ingredient in Pepto Bismol.
Bismuth
Around half of the world's supply of this element is found in compound form in the Mojave Desert of California. In compound form it is the 2nd hardest material after diamond that is used as a super abrasive.
Boron
This element is commonly found in chalk, limestone, and marble. It is also an essential element for humans to maintain healthy bones and teeth. It is also found in antacid tablets.
Calcium
These 2 elements are components in hard water. What effect does hard water have?
Calcium and Magnesium; Soap scum
Graphite and diamond are 2 forms that this element can take.
Carbon
This element is a deadly gas but in compound form is used as a bleaching agent.
Chlorine
This inner transition metal is one of the strongest natural magnets.
Neodymium
About 78% of the atmosphere is composed of this element. It is also a component in TNT and fertilizers.
Nitrogen
What is the most abundant element on Earth? In the universe?
Oxygen; Hydrogen
This chalcogen group element is used as a die supplement and is found in fish, eggs, and grains. It is thought to inhibit the growth of cancer and prevent cell damage. It is also used in solar panels since it can convert light into electricity and in photocopiers to create the image of the item being copied.
Selenium
This element is in glass and sand as well as the semi-conductor in computer chips.
Silicon
This element creates the red in fireworks.
Strontium
This element's oxide reacts with water vapor to produce acid rain. It is also used in compound form to preserve fruit. It smells like rotten eggs.
Sulfur
Write the symbol of the element with the following name: trihexbium
Thb
This family contains the elements that are most commonly used in jewelry.
Transition Metals
Name the element with the following atomic number: 190
Unennilium
These 2 radioactive elements are used in nuclear bombs and well as nuclear power plants. One of these elements use to be in paint and glass to allow it to glow in the dark.
Uranium and Plutonium
Oxides of these 2 inner transition metals are found in your TV screens and color computer monitors.
Yttrium and Europium
Which 2 alkali metals are important for the biological functions in and around cells?
Potassium and Sodium
