8. We
can
divide
the
periodic
table
into
three
primary
categories:
metals,
non‐metals,
and
____________________.
9. Metals
located

14. The
far
right
group
of
elements
on
the
periodic
table
are
called
the
_______________
_______________.
They
are
considered
to
be
_____________

they
do
not
readily
combine
with
other
elements.
15. Rows
on
the
periodic
table
are
called
_______________.
The
columns
on
a
periodic
table
are
called
_________________,
and
these
elements
typically
share
similar
__________________.
16. The
three
states
of
matter
are
_________________,
_________________,
and
_________________.
17. Identify
each
state
below:
18. _______________
have
definite
volume
and
shape,
while
________________
have
definite
volume
but
no
definite
shape.
19. _______________
are
made
up
of
high‐energy,
fast
moving
particles
that
bounce
around
and
are
typically
spread
out.
20. _______________
are
made
up
of
closely
packed
particles
that
only
vibrate
in
place.
21. When
a
solid
changes
into
a
gas,
it
is
called
_______________________,
while
___________________
is
the
name
for
a
solid
changing
into
a
liquid.
22. Evaporation
occurs
when
a
________________
becomes
a
_________________.
23. ______________________
is
when
a
gas
changes
into
a
liquid.

temperature
effect
the
states
of
matter?
________________________________________________________
