• (B) relate chemical properties of substances to the arrangement of their atoms ; 
• (C) analyze physical and chemical properties of elements and compounds such as color, density, viscosity, buoyancy, boiling point, freezing point, conductivity, and reactivity; 
• (D) relate the placement of an element on the Periodic Table to its physical and chemical behavior , including bonding and classification ; 
• (E) relate the structure of water to its function as a solvent ; and 
• (F) investigate the properties of water solutions and factors affecting solid solubility, including nature of solute, temperature, and concentration.
