A 9” x 12” rectangle of construction paper will be provided. All paragraphs/written work must be typed in your own words. (NO cutting and pasting of downloads. Pictures used can be downloaded, but must have the website cited below as a caption.) **Please cite your work on the back of your Element Square using MLA format.</p><p>Complete this activity using the library, computer and Internet resources. The information will be used for your Element Square. Your notes should include the following for each element: ***You must turn in this completed worksheet with your Element Square.</p><p>Include the following on your Element Square:</p><p>. Element Name______. Element Symbol______. Atomic Number______. Mass Number______. Number of protons______, neutrons______and electrons______in a neutral atom of your element. Reminders: Protons + Neutrons = Mass # In a neutral atom, protons=electrons . Number of electrons in each electron shell ______</p><p>. A picture of the element in its pure form or a picture of how the element is used.</p><p>. Provide a typed paragraph for your square containing the following information (at least 5 sentences): . Description of the element (color, malleability, state at room temperature, boiling and/or melting point, etc.)______. History of its discovery (who, when, where, how)______. Common uses of this element: ______</p><p>. Other interesting facts about your element Examples: Where can you find this element in nature? Is it easy to find or is it man-made in laboratories? Can you just pick it up or does it require a complicated extraction process from ores like copper? ______</p><p>This project will be worth 50 points (25 points for the element square, 25 points for content including the work cited), please be sure to put your best effort into this You can earn up to 10 extra credit points for an exceptional project!!</p><p>The following are some helpful websites:</p><p>***www.chemicalelements.com www.chemicool.com www.Chem4Kids.com www.webelements.com http://perll.lanl.gov/periodic/elements/4.html http://chemlab.pc.maricopa.edu/periodic/periodic.html</p><p>Please see me if you have any questions! *Please see me if you do not have internet access.
