This page displays the Periodic Table of Elements and allows you to click each individual element for a page that displays in-depth information about that particular element. There are also links to many different games and learning...

A very detailed look at the element Gallium, a member of the Boron Group.

Learn how to read the periodic table of elements as you solve these Math questions about the number of protons, neutrons, electrons or nucleons in an atom of an element. You can choose how many questions to answer, and how complex they...

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Explores elements and their different properties, the history of elements, and how atoms relate to elements.

Find out if you know enough about atoms to build them. The goal of the activity is to build an atom of a particular element by dragging the correct numbers of neutrons, protons and electrons into the atom.

Students build atoms of elements 1-20. The entire set can be hung from the ceiling in order of the Periodic Table to be referred to throughout the Chemistry class/unit. This is helpful when teaching bonding and patterns of the Periodic...

This lesson focuses on atoms and elements including what they are, the chemical symbols for elements, and the placement of elements on the periodic table. A link to a test is provided.

As part of the General Chemistry Virtual Textbook, this site examines a list of related topics (in hyperlink format) on the atom and the Periodic Table of elements. Topics from light, particles, and waves to the Bohr model, quantum...

Short slide show provides basic information about drawing Lewis dot structures for covalent compounds. Starts with anatomy of the atom, and then shows the relationship between atomic particles and the Periodic Table of Elements. Offers...

Build an atom out of protons, neutrons, and electrons, and see how the element, charge, and mass change. Then play a game to test your ideas!

Build an atom out of protons, neutrons, and electrons, and see how the element, charge, and mass change. Then play a game to test how the ideas work!

Are all atoms of an element the same? How can you tell one isotope from another? Use the sim to learn about isotopes and how abundance relates to the average atomic mass of an element.

A video and a short quiz on the parts of an atom, the periodic table, and molecules.

The interactive activity examines the Periodic Table of Elements. Learners answer questions about the number of protons, electrons, neutrons, or nucleons that an atom of an element contains.

Find out the basic characteristics and main properties of all matter.

[Free Registration/Login Required] This flipchart introduces fifth graders to atoms and elements. Key concepts include atoms, parts of the atoms, elements, and the periodic table. Opportunities for student participation are included...

A fun way to learn about the periodic table! This interactive table allows students to investigate the basic information of an element as well as explore group and family characteristics.

Provides definitions and characteristics of elements, compounds, and mixtures, and gives an animated image of each.

A slideshow looking at the contributions of scientists over time to our understanding of atomic theory. Looks at models of the atom developed by Democritus, John Dalton, J.J. Thomson, Ernest Rutherford, Niels Bohr, and James Chadwick, as...

As part of the introduction to the Periodic Table of the Elements, learners will be introduced to the idea of atoms, molecules, and chemical reactions.

Everythingin the universeis either matter or energy. All matter is made of combinations of about one hundred basic building blocks, the chemical elements on the periodic table. Going a step further and breaking these elements down to...

Explains the basics of atomic structure, from simple definitions to information about quantum theory. Accurate and helpful basics whether or not you need the more advanced information.
