First presentation introduces Groups, Periods and chemical symbols, including a short question exercise. It discusses the tables devised by Newlands and Mendeleev. Second resource briefly covers properties of Groups 1, 7 and 0, and focuses on explaining trends in reactivity within and between groups. Worksheet summarises the alkali metals. It should preferably accompany a practical demo.

"Excellent for revision!"

Review this resource

Two very straightforward PowerPoints (one normal and 1 harder), in which students choose answers A,B or C and write them down on paper. The questions cover solids, liquids and gases. Answers are included on the last half of the slide show for the first presentation. There is some overlap of questions between the two resources. For added tension I suggest a timer on the whole show! [63 Slides]
