Rogue River Academy Science
Week 17 : Jan 18-24
Following these weeks are finals. Here is a review document.
First Semester Review GuideGoals:
1. All atoms are made of the same pieces: electons on the outside, protons and neutrons in an inner nucleus.
2. Valence electron shells hold up to eight electrons (or two) and are progressively filled as you go through the periodic table.
3. Know how the periodic table is organized in regards to: metals/non-metals, reactivity, protons, neutrons, electrons, mass, and families' physical properties and chemical formulas.
