Quantum Mechanical Model : • what is it: electrons are located in regions based on probability (orbits vs. orbitals) • Energy levels, sublevels and orbitals: s,p,d and f sublevels/orbitals; shapes; # of electrons in each sublevel/orbital • Electron configuration (up to argon) Periodic Table: • determining # of valence electrons • organization: families (groups); periods; order of increasing atomic number • types of elements: metals, non-metals, metalloids; properties and location on periodic table • generalized trends: atomic radius; electronegativity and ionization energy • reactivity and properties of elements (in a family): valence electrons

Math Skills
Literacy Standards
RST-4: Determine the meaning of symbols, key terms, and other domain-specific words and phrases as they are used in a specific or technical context relevant to grades 9-10 texts and topics. RST-5: Analyze the structure of the relationships among concepts in a text, including relationships among key terms. WHST-2d: Use precise language and domain-specific vocabulary to manage the complexity of the topic and convey a style appropriate to the discipline and context as well as to the expertise of likely readers. WHST-2e: Establish and maintain a formal style and objective tone while attending to the norms and conventions of the discipline in which they are writing. WHST-2f: Provide a concluding statement or section that follows from and supports the information or explanation presented. WHST-7: Conduct short as well as more sustained research projects to answer a question or solve a problem; narrow or broaden the inquiry when appropriate; synthesize multiple sources on the subject, demonstrating understanding of the subject under investigation.
