skills #1 Once upon a time in a land far away there lived a famous
scientist called Mendeleev. He lived in a huge castle that had
walls made of gold. Mendeleev loved to have parties where
he could invite all his friends to tea that he made in his giant
copper teapot. He would blow up balloons with helium gas
and hang them from the castle walls. He would give his
guests beautiful cups and plates made from silver and they
would eat fish finger sandwiches with lots of salt and activity worksheets
vinegar. The guests loved Mendeleev’s parties because they
always finished with fireworks, made from iron and
magnesium, which filled the sky with beautiful colors.
One day Mendeleev made a mistake. When he was filling his
party balloons, he used hydrogen instead of helium gas. At
the end of the party when the fireworks went off, the balloons
caught fire with a “BANG”, and everyone was very scared.
Luckily, the castle had carbon dioxide fire extinguishers to
put the fire out. From this day forward Mendeleev always
labels his gas jars carefully, using the name and symbol for
the gas.

Guide Question:
 1. Underline all the different elements in this story.
2. Find the symbols for these elements in your periodic table.
What group and period are each element in?
3. Find two compounds in this story. Write their names and
chemical formulas.
4. Why is it wrong to say that carbon dioxide is an element?
Explain your answer.
5. Why is it wrong to say that bread is a compound? Explain
your answer.

Chemical compound-substance composed of identical

molecules, these compounds consisting of atoms of two or
more chemical elements. Compounds are classified in two,
 that are organic and inorganic. Organic compounds were
originally isolated from living organisms. The compounds
that are not considered to be organic are called inorganic
compounds. Chemical compounds are used for our daily
uses, such as Baking powder used in cooking, table salt
(NaCl) used in cooking, mouthwash personal hygiene,
