Key Knowledge:
• the periodic table as an organisational tool to identify patterns and trends in, and relationships between, the structures (including electronic configurations and atomic radii) and properties (including electronegativity, first ionisation energy, metallic/non-metallic character and reactivity) of elements.
THE PERIODIC TABLE
•The periodic table is a method of organising all the known elements to show their similarities and differences.
