Help your students build real understanding of electron configurations as through ninety questions that move from basic recognition to genuine reasoning about chemistry concepts.
The set includes questions like "Using the Aufbau principle, which electron configuration is correct for a germanium atom?", "Which element has the electron configuration of [Xe] 6s₂ 4f₁₄ 5d₁₀?", and "Which of the following configurations indicates an element in Group 17?"
Each worksheet reviews the same core ideas from a different angle. Use them across a week or unit so students see the material three times without it ever feeling repetitive.
This set is part of a standards aligned chemistry unit. The unit also covers Atomic Number, Mass Number, Isotopes and Average Atomic Mass, Why Atomic Models Changed Over, Quantum Model as a Predictive, Valence Electrons and Chemical, and Excited Electrons and Observable, all in the same three worksheet format, so your classroom routine stays familiar while the topic changes.
Suitable for Grade 9-12 chemistry classes, and for review at any point in the school year. This set is aligned to Virginia SOL standard CH.2d.
