ELICIT
The teacher will ask questions regarding about atomic structure (protons, electrons,
and neutrons).
IV. PROCEDURE

1. What do you call the building blocks of matter?

2. What subatomic particles can be found in the nucleus of an atom?
3. Which subatomic particle is the lightest?
4.What are the 2 subatomic particles makes up the mass of an atom?

ENGAGE

 The teacher will bring in or show pictures of two very common elements: gold and silver.
Follow-up questions:
1.What are the pictures that I have here?
2. Are you familiar with these items? If so, how?
3. Other than being found in jewelry and coins, do you know where all of these
things can be found?
 The teacher will present a video song about the periodic table of elements

Establishing purpose of the lesson

 Learning competency: Trace the development of the periodic table from
observations based on the similarities in properties of elements
 Sub-tasks: Trace the development of the periodic table
Describe how the elements are arranged in the periodic table

Unlocking of Difficult Terms

 Elements - are substances consisting one type of atom.
 Atomic mass - which is also known as atomic weight, is the average mass of atoms of
an element.
 Atomic number - located in the upper left corner in the periodic table; it is the number of
protons in an atom of that element
 Trends- is a regular variation the properties of an element with increasing atomic number
 Properties- include color, density, melting point, boiling point, and thermal and electrical
conductivity. Others are more closely related to properties to the atomic mass and atomic
number.
 Compounds- is a substance formed when two or more chemical elements are chemically
bonded together.
 Column- is a vertical group of values within a table
 Exception- someone or something that is not included in a rule, group, or list.

EXPLORE
The teacher will let the students perform and answer the activities on their LM’s for 25 minutes.

Activity 1 : Tracking the path and constructing the periodic table

Objectives:

 Trace the development of the periodic table

 Describe how the elements are arranged in the periodic table

Guide Questions:
 Q1. How many groups of elements were formed?
Q2. What criteria did you use to choose which group an element belongs to?
Q3. Are there any exceptions to these trends? If so which elements break the trend? Why
did your group arrange these elements the way you do?
Q4. Are there any gaps in your arrangement? Where are they? What do you think these
gaps might mean?
Q5. How did your table of elements change each time you added new elements?
Q6. How is the table of elements you prepared similar to the modern periodic table? How is
it different?
Q7. How do you explain the fact that tellurium comes before iodine in the modern periodic
table, though it has a higher atomic mass than iodine?

EXPLAIN

 The teacher will call random students to report their answers.

 Checking of the activity
 Analysis of the students output.
 The teacher will further discuss the topic.

Periodic Table Timeline

1649 - Hennig Brand discovered phosphorus
1817 - The development of periodic table could be traced back in 1817 to the work of
Johann Dobereiner, a German chemist who form the triads of the elements with similar
properties like the triad of calcium, barium and strontium.
1829 - Johann Dobereiner discover the halogen triad and the alkali metal triad.
1862 - The first periodic table was created by de Chancourtois. He assembled the table
by classifying chemical elements in an order based on their periodicity of chemical and
physical properties.
1864 - John Newlands published his own version of the periodic table and developed the
Law of Octaves.
1869 - Two scientists determined a way to determine a way to put the elements in
order, it was Lothar Meyer and Dmitri Mendeleev.
- Both arranged the elements in order if increasing atomic mass while putting in
groups those with similar properties.
- Dmitri Mendeleev published his periodic table, eventually becoming father of the
periodic table.
1870 - Lothar Meyer published his version of the periodic table (after Mendeleev).
1895 - Lord Rayleigh discovered argon, a new gaseous element that was chemically
inert.
1894 -1898 - Wiliam Ramsey discovered the noble gases and realised that they
represented a new group in the periodic table.
- he helped establish the zero group (for zero valency) and discovered such
as neon, krypton and helium.
1914 - Henry Moseley, an English Physicist determined the atomic number of each of the
known elements.
 - Led to the development of the modern periodic law which states that the
properties of elements vary periodically with atomic number.
1940 - Glenn Seaborg discovered plutonium and the transuranic elements form 94 to
102. his findings represented the last ( and most recent ) changes to the periodic table.

The Modern Periodic Table

The last major changes to the periodic table resulted form Glenn Seaborg’s work in the
middle of the 20th century. Starting with his discovery of plutonium in 1940, he
discovered all transuranic elements from 94 to 102. he reconfigured the periodic table
by placing the actinide series below the lanthanide series. In 1951, Seaborg was awarded
the Nobel Prize in chemistry for his work. Element 106 has been named seaborgium (Sg)
in his honor.
Periodic Table- is a tabular arrangement of the chemical elements ordered by their
atomic number, electronic configuration and recurring chemical properties.
Groups or Family- is the vertical column in the periodic table
 Group 1 - named as the alkali metals
 Group 2- alkaline earth ,etals
 Group 17 - halogens
 Group 18 - noble gases
 Group 13 to 16 - oxygen group
 Groups 1,2 and 13 through 18 are called the representative elements or main groups of the
periodic table.
 Group 3 to 12 - constitutes one block wherein elements in this block are referred as the
transition elements. The lanthanides and actinides are special series of elements but are
also part of the transition block; they are also called the inner transition elements.

Period- is the horizontal row in the table, are numbered from the top to bottom.

ELABORATE

The teacher will post following cards on the board and let the students fill the spaces of the
missing elements and arranged according to the increasing atomic number or its placement of
the partial periodic table.
