15 Helpful Hints On The Lab Report from

Mr. T’s Vast Lab Experience!!!

Hint #14. No experiment is ever a complete failure, it can always serve as a bad example.

Hydrogen

Republic)• Some groups are given family names like

• 1, 2, 7 and 8• Alkali metals, reactive ones are on the far, far left.• Group 2 has the name of alkaline earth.
