The Atomic and Nuclear Structure of an Atom The atom has three main components the protons‚ neutrons‚ and electrons. The protons and neutrons make up the nucleus‚ while the electrons are found outside the atom’s nucleus. Each component of an atom has a charge to it. The protons have a positive charge. The electrons have a negative charge‚ and the neutrons have a neutral charge. The atoms also have a charge. For example hydrogen can be negative‚ positive or neutral. These are called

The History of the Atom Hypothesis according to Aristotle (350 BC): All matter consists of the elements earth‚ air‚ fire‚ and water. Experiment: A tree grows from the earth as water is added. The tree is then set on fire in an effort to form new elements. 1. What kind of results would be observed from this experiment? Fire‚ ash (earth)‚ smoke (air) 2. Would these observations support or reject the hypothesis? Explain. Support. No elements have been produced that are something other than

For Zirconium to become chemical stable it must lose 4 electrons (to become a noble gas). So that is why Zr4+ is formed. Compare the stability of the zr atom and zr ion. the electron configuration for Zr is [Kr] 4d2 5s2. Ions are formed by losing electrons in outer shells to obtain more stable electron

Atoms‚ Molecules and Elements Melissa DuBois Chem 110 September 16‚ 2013 Earl Steven Gurley Atoms‚ Molecules and Elements Atoms are the smallest unit of matter and a group of atoms can form chemical bonds in order to form a molecule. Molecules are groups of two or more atoms that have bound together and are the makings of matter. Elements are a substance that has only one type of atom that make up that element. First we can learn about how halogens and alkali metals are extremely reactive‚ where

Gabby Dodgson 2A Oxygen Atom Essay A Day in the Life Being an oxygen atom isn’t as easy as it sounds‚ humans love us so much and those other atoms are always trying to attach themselves to us. Honestly‚ can they be anymore clingy? Really were the Michael Jordan’s of the element world. Todays the day I leave my home in the Tundra Biome‚ finally graduated from the periodic table and am on my way to the Tropics. I can’t wait‚ I’m so sick of this freezing weather and lack of any biotic diversity.

Pineda‚ Carlitos Miguel Ponce M. January 9‚ 2013 AIT2A Natural Science 12 ATOM DEVELOPMENT WITH SCIENTISTS INVOLVED 400 B.C. - Democritus’ atomic theory posited that all matter is made up small indestructible units he called atoms. Democritus expanded the idea to state that matter was composed of small particles called "atoms" that could be divided no further. These atoms were all composed of the same primary matter with the only differences between them being their size‚ shape

understanding upon the structure of the atom. Before Rutherford‚ there was a man named Joseph John Thomson who proposed the structure of the atom. He stated that the electrons of the atoms are actually inside the atom‚ and the atom itself is positively charged‚ like a “raisin pudding”. The electrons are scattered all around the atom. He stated that the electrons and the positively charged material cancel each other‚ making it stable. The structure of the atom‚ proposed by Thomson. (J.J Thomson Plum
