CAIE IGCSE Chemistry 8.1.5 How the position of an element in the
Practise predicting element properties, bonding, oxide type and reactivity from an element's position in the Periodic Table.
How this is tested
- use group and period position to predict metal or non-metal character and conductivity
- predict bonding and formulae of oxides or simple compounds from Periodic Table position
- place an unfamiliar element in a group from property tables and formula evidence
