About the Elements

<p> Mr. Applebaum’s Second Marking Period Chemistry Project “ADOPT AN ELEMENT”</p><p>Requirements: 1 - Bibliography / Reference Page (30 pts) Due Date: ______2 - Element Fact Sheet (30 pts) Due Date: ______3 - Advertising Poster (40 pts) Due Date: ______My element: ______10% lost for each day late</p><p>1 - Bibliography / Reference Page: Your project begins with research. You must have at least three references. Your textbook is good place to start. You can also use magazines, encyclopedias (hard copy or on-line), books on CD and/or internet sites*. After you have found all the required information, you are to cite your specific references in proper form (Author, Title, Resource Location, Date). Check you student handbook (page R-7) to see how books, web pages, etc. are to be cited. I should be able to find the exact information you found by checking your references. </p><p>2 – Each section of the fact sheet on the backside of this page) must be as complete and neat as possible. For example, if your element has no discoverer, in that it has been known in antiquity, you are to write something like “known since ancient times – discoverer unknown”. Costs must be converted to one of the three options listed and common isotopes are hereby defined as those that are stable along with those with a half life no less than a year.</p><p>3- Periodic Table block poster: The size must be 14” x 20” (less than half a normal sized poster board). It must include: your elements name, atomic number, and symbol, the average atomic mass, some of its practical uses and its cost. You must also develop a slogan for you element that describes an important use or feature of your element. Be creative; use related photos, diagrams, and colors. Make it neat and catchy.</p><p>33 74.9 Atomic Atomic No. As Mass 20 inches high by 14 inches wide Arsenic Name and Symbol “A sure fire way to kill a rat; and it works much better than a mean old cat” Slogan</p><p>Cost and uses Practical Uses: medicine, poisons, and alloys Cost = $3.20 per gram</p><p>Your poster must follow this format. Be sure to add artwork, photos, and color!
