IV. PROCEDURES

ELICIT: Access prior Using the projector, present to the class figures/diagrams of sample elements and
knowledge use the following questions to ask the students:
A.

1. What do you know about the pictures?

2. Give their correct names and chemical symbol.
3. What common difference/s have you observed in these sample elements?
(Ans. they are different in their nature- as metal element or non-metal element)
 Unknown samples of elements were observed and tested in an experiment.
The data on the table below shows the results of the experiment. Based on
the data, identify if the element being described is a metal or a non-metal by
writing your answer on the last column

1.) Metallic ___________ 2.) Non-metallic _____________

b.) across the group (from top to bottom):

1.) Metallic ___________ 2.) Non-metallic _____________

C. (Group III) – AGGRESSIVE or NOT? MAKE A CHOICE!

Read the situation below.

A group of students perform an activity using muriatic acid and samples of metals.
Based on the result on how metals reacted with acid they found out the data
presented in the table.

Please refer to the table below in answering the given questions.

hydrogen on the activity series will not react with dilute acid.

Please refer to the activity series below.
