Standards: HS-PS1-1 — Use the periodic table as a model to predict the relative properties of elements based on the patterns of electrons in the outermost energy level of atoms. HS-PS1-8 — Develop models to illustrate the changes in the composition of the nucleus of the atom and the energy released during the processes of fission, fusion, and radioactive decay.

Resource type: Guided Notes. Format: editable Microsoft Word file plus a ready-to-print PDF.

Classroom use: Have students complete the notes during the slide show or as an independent reading activity, then review with the answer key. Built for high school Chemistry, grades 9–12.
