Okay so the format of this isn't very aesthetically pleasing. This was an online scavenger hunt we did in class. We went through it to familiarize ourselves with the periodic table of elements. Most of that is pretty useless information though. All I really need to know about the elements is what they are and where they are on the periodic table. It doesn't really matter how big they are or what temperature they're gasses at. At least, it doesn't yet. This isn't the most advanced chemistry class ever. But I suppose the scavenger hunt was a good way for us to refamiliarize ourselves with the periodic table. Atoms and such have never been my strong suit. I understand the terms, an orbital is two electrons, you can fit 8 electrons in most of the highest levels of atoms. Put that all together and I tend to get a little lost. But I'm fine as long as I know that noble gasses don't want to bond with anything.
