A Fresh Look at the Periodic Table
New Periodic Table
Define/Discover:
We need to make a new periodic table with elements in different places than an original periodic table.
Questions:
- Why is some elements in different places outside of the body of the table?
- Could we categorize it in a different way? Is so how?
- Why don’t they put in alphabetical order?
- Why can you make it in a circle?
- What different shapes can you make the periodic table?
- Why isn’t it classified by density?
- Could you flip the periodic table on its side?
Dream:
Make it in a hexagon
Different sections to have all the elements
Make a place to put the many metals
Colour code it
Make it an oval
