    The Atomic Mass of Metallo You may have noticed on the periodic table that the atomic mass of an element is usually not a whole number. That happens because of isotopes. An atom that is missing a neutron or has an extra neutron is called an isotope. They are still the same element; however‚ they are just a little different from every other atom of the same element. Most of the carbon atoms in the universe are Carbon-12‚ with 6 neutrons. A small percentage of carbon atoms are Carbon-13‚ with 7 neutrons

    Atomic energy is energy produced by atoms. The term originated in 1903 when Ernest Rutherford began to speak of the possibility ofatomic energy.[1] The term was popularized by H. G. Wells in the phrase‚ "splitting the atom"‚ devised at a time prior to the discovery of the nucleus. Atomic energy also may refer to: * Nuclear binding energy‚ the energy required to split a nucleus of an atom * Nuclear potential energy‚ the potential energy of the particles inside an atomic nucleus * Nuclear

    Atomic Theory Essay We are first going to talk about Protons‚Neutrons and Electrons. These three elements are a very good example of most things that are in use of gas fumes. It all started when Protons and neutrons where‚ Protons were discovered by Experimenting with discharging tubes. Eventually they found out the rest of the Atoms over time. Which brings me into the word of Orbital. Orbital is a Neutron‚ electron or a proton Going around a single atom with certain amounts of energy levels. Which

    INTRODUCTION: In atomic spectroscopy the samples are vaporized at 2000-8000k. The process of this involves two steps ‚ one is atomization of sample and the other is absorption of light radiation from light source. The atoms in the vapour are measured by absorption or emission at characteristic wave lengths. The main usage of this was to detect one element from another in the complex sample which has taken ie.‚ it has ability to perform multiple element analyses. Absorbance should obey Beer’s law
