Location Period Group

The periodic table is organized into groups and periods of elements. The characteristics of a certain group of elements are listed below.

Which of these elements is in this group?

• Lithium

• Strontium

• Aluminum

• Silicon

Which two elements on the periodic table are in the same period?

• Sn and Rb

• F and Cl

• K and Ba

• Se and Te

Students were asked to identify the location of elements in the periodic table based on clues printed on game cards. Based on the data, which periodic table shows the correct location of the four elements?

*the answer choices (F, G, H & J) are the same in the question image and the answer choice images...trying to make it so you can zoom in to see the answers!

Element R and Element Q have the same number of valence electrons. These elements both have similar chemical behavior, but Element R has fewer energy levels than Element Q. Which statement best describes the positions of the two elements in the periodic table?

• the two elements are in the same period, with element R the first element in the period and element Q the last element

• the two elements are side by side in the same period, with element Q to the left or element R

• the two elements are in the same group, with element R just above element Q

• the two elements are in the same group, with element Q at the top of the group and element R at the bottom

Students in a science class prepared flash cards so that they could quiz one another about the arrangement of the periodic table. One of the flash cards contained information about two elements, Element L and Element M.

The students had to use the information on the flash card to determine possible positions of the two elements on a blank periodic table. Which periodic table has the elements placed in locations that match the information on the flash card?
