Understanding the periodic table gives us a good way of understanding the elements in science. Each element is differentiated by another due to its components and number of items. The quiz below was created to test out a student’s understanding of the atoms and the elements in the periodic table. Why don’t you give it a try and see just how much you recall from your classwork?
