Periodic Tables Most Wanted - Student Ws
Directions: There is an element on the periodic table that does not want
to be located. Actually, this element is hiding out. In an effort to
elude you, the element has provided many false identities and it is your
job to follow-up on all of these to locate it. However, the element is not
as smart as it thinks; we know that all of these false identities are
connected to each other. Therefore, providing the correct identity for
each clue below will ultimately help you find the element (this means
you should use each answer as a reference to get the next one). So, if
you make just one mistake it will affect all clues and identities that
follow; thus allowing this perpetrator to get away.
if you reverse the atomic number of the previous answer, you will
know my mass - _________________

Sum of all three columns combined (Protons, Neutrons, Electrons) = ___________
The sum of the protons, neutrons, and electrons for all of the ions in
the table, divided by 4 represents my atomic # once you reverse the
two digits - __________________
Go to the website www.chemicalelements.com (or use any other
resource available) to find out how many valence electrons I have
and then you will be able to identify the one you have been
searching for because the # of valence electrons I possess is equal to
the number that makes the one you have been searching for unique
