Atomic Number so number of protons,

1 of 8

Which side are the metals on?

The left-hand side,

2 of 8

What are vertical columns called and what do these elements have in common?

Groups and they have similar chemical properties as they have the same number of electrons in their outer shell,

3 of 8

What are horizontal rows called and what so these elements have in common?

Periods and they have the same number of shells in their element,

4 of 8

What groups are in the 's' blocks and why?

Groups 1 and 2 as their outer electrons are in energy levels called 's' levels and can have upto 2 electrons

5 of 8

What groups are in the 'p' block and why?

Groups 3,4,5,6,7 and 0. Their outer electrons are in energy levels called 'p' levels that can have up to 6 electrons,

6 of 8

When can ionic bonding only work?

Only works with metals which have one or two electrons in their outer shell and with non-metals with six or seven in their outer shell,
