Dmitri Mendeleev
Know where to find metals, nonmetals, and synthetic elements on the Periodic Table
Know that semimetals (metalloids) are good semiconductors because they can conduct electricity but not as well as metals (example: silicon)
Periods are horizontal rows that tell us the number or energy levels
Know major properties of metals and nonmetals
Bohr Models:  Be able to draw Bohr models for all elements up to 20.

Essay Topics: (be prepared for the following topics):
-       Be able to explain what is unique about the inert (noble) gas region of the periodic table.
-       Be prepared to discuss similarities and differences of metals and nonmetals with examples.
