Learning Objectives

At the end of this simulation, you will be able to:

Explain the layout and arrangement of the periodic table.
Discuss certain tendencies in atomic properties that occur within groups and periods.
Group elements into their respective families according to their positions on the periodic table.
Differentiate metals from other element categories based on common characteristics.
Apply the flame color test as a method for identifying metals according to their positions within the periodic table.
Establish a connection between the number of valence electrons and the oxidation state of a main group element, considering its location on the periodic table.

How do virtual labs work?

Enhance students' involvement in science by immersing them in interactive learning scenarios. Create simulations for experiments, provide hands-on training in laboratory techniques, and convey theoretical concepts through captivating visual experiences to improve their overall long-term learning outcomes.

Access web-based simulations that are compatible with laptops, Chromebooks, tablets, and iPads, eliminating the need for software installation.
Incorporate a teacher dashboard for automated grading and monitoring of student progress.
Utilize embedded quizzes to assist students in mastering scientific content.
Comprehensive repository of educational materials, including learning resources, lab reports, videos, theory pages, graphics, and more.
