Sections cover selecting correct element symbols, understanding Mendeleev’s early periodic table and reasoning for gaps, using a Chemistry Data Sheet to interpret periodic trends, comparing properties of sodium, nickel, and halogens, and completing equations and explanations of reactivity. Includes targeted evidence questions, group and shell electron concepts, and marking totals for each part.","The Periodic Table  \nQuestion Paper  \n\n| Level | GCSE |\n| --- | --- |\n| Subject | Chemistry |\n| Exam Board | AQA |\n| Unit | C3 |\n| Topic | The Periodic Table |\n| Difficulty Level | Bronze Level |\n| Booklet | Question Paper |\n\nTime Allowed: 206 minutes  \nScore: /206  \nPercentage: /100  \nQ1.The diagram shows the chemical symbols of five elements in the periodic table.  \n(a) Choose the correct chemical symbol to complete each sentence.  \n(i) The element that is an alkali metal is ......................... .  \n(1)  \n(ii) The element that is a transition metal is ......................... .  \n(1)  \n(iii) The element in Group 4 is ......................... .  \n(1)  \n(iv) The element with a full outer energy level (shell) of electrons is  \n......................... .  \n(1)  \n(b) Which other element goes in the shaded box?  \n(1)  \n(Total 5 marks)  \nQ2.This question is about the periodic table of elements.  \nUse the Chemistry Data Sheet to help you to answer these questions.  \nIn 1869 Dmitri Mendeleev produced an early version of the periodic table.  \n(a) Draw a ring around the correct answer to complete each sentence.  \n(i)  \nMendeleev first arranged the elements in order of their  \natomic weight. date of discovery. electron number.  \n(1)  \n(ii)  \nMendeleev then placed elements with similar properties in columns called  \ngroups. periods. shells.  \n(1)  \n(iii) When the next element did not fit the pattern,  \nMendeleev  \nignored the element.  \nleft a gap.  \nput the element at the end of the row.  \n(1)  \n(iv) Mendeleev was not able to include the noble gases (Group 0) in his periodic table  \nbecause the noble gases  \nare not elements.  \nare not reactive.  \nhad not been discovered by 1869.  \n(1)  \n(b) Use the correct word from the box to complete each sentence.  \nelectrons molecules neutrons protons  \nIn the modern periodic table elements are arranged in order of the number of  \n........................................... in their nucleus. Elements in the same group have the same  \n[number of ........................................... in](number of ........................................... in) their highest energy level (outer shell) .  \n(2)  \n(c) Sodium (Na) is in Group 1 of the periodic table.  \nNickel (Ni) is a transition element.  \nTick () two correct statements about sodium and nickel.  \n\n| Statement | Tick () |\n| --- | --- |\n| Sodium and nickel are both metals. |  |\n| Sodium has a higher melting point than nickel. |  |\n| Sodium is more reactive than nickel. |  |\n| Sodium is harder than nickel. |  |\n\n(2)  \n(d) Chlorine, bromine and iodine are in Group 7 of the periodic table.  \nChlorine is more reactive than bromine.  \n(i) Complete the word equation for the reaction between chlorine and sodium bromide.  \nchlorine + sodium bromide  ....................... + sodium chloride  \n(1)  \n(ii) Why does iodine not react with sodium bromide solution?  \n...............................................................................................................  \n.............................. .................................................................................  \n(1)  \n(Total 10 marks)  \nQ3.The periodic table on the Data Sheet may help you to answer these questions.  \nPart of the periodic table is shown below.  \nThe letters are not the symbols of these elements.  \nChoose your answers only from the letters shown in the periodic table above.
