Fluorescence Microscope- 2-D or 3-D‚ allows us to visualize fluorescent dyes. 4. Transmission Electron Microscope- it shoots a bean of electrons through a sample‚ and it collects whatever passes through. -It can do a million fold magnifications. 2-D images‚ visualize down to 2nm(nanometers) 1mm=1000mm(micrometers) 1mm=1000nm 5. Scanning Electron Microscope- Functions in a similar function to a transmission electron microscope> 3-D images‚ 3-20 nm in size. What does it mean to be alive? All living

XRD – X-Ray Diffraction X-ray diffraction (XRD) is a powerful non-destructive technique for characterizing crystalline materials. It provides information on structures‚ phases‚ preferred crystal orientations (texture)‚ and other structural parameters‚ such as average grain size‚ crystallinity‚ strain‚ and crystal defects. X-ray diffraction peaks are produced by constructive interference of a monochromatic beam of X-rays scattered at specific angles from each set of lattice planes in a sample. The

with special relativity to describe the behavior of an electron‚ he found that the solutions of the equation which showed that if matter is created from energy then an equal amount of antimatter is also created. For example‚ the equation‚ X squared equals four can have two possible solutions (X equals two) or (X equals negative two.) Dirac’s equation proves two possible solutions‚ one for an electron with positive energy‚ and one for an electron with negative energy. This showed that for every proton

able to appear because an excited electron was unstable and had to fall back to a more stable energy level‚ creating energy in the form of light. However‚ to understand this‚ one must understand what causes an electron to be excited. So from the very beginning‚ a person named Max Plank proposed a theory that energy is emitted and absorbed in quantities called “quanta.” Einstein then came along and said that light contained quanta energy called “photons.” Electrons that are present in atoms are on

light hits it. Classical mechanics says that electrons will be emitted from a metal by light waves with any frequency as long as the intensity of the light is strong enough‚ and even if it is weak over a long enough period of time electrons will eventually be emitted. The theory was proved incorrect after experiments showed that light under certain frequencies did not produce the photoelectric effect on the metal‚ which meant that the emitting of electrons is related not to intensity but the waves

Part I: Bonding A) Group # and Valence Electrons -is used to describe the column in which an element is in. i.e.‚ Lithium is in group 1. *Group number tells you how many valence electrons a specific element has. i.e.‚ Aluminum has 3 valence electrons. B) Ionic Bonding -Ionic bonds form F.U.’s (formula units) -A bond between a metal and a non metal -Occurs when an atom has lost or gained an electron **BRING YOUR ION SHEET FOR NAMING** C) Covalent Bonding -Covalent bonds form molecules

various types of nuclear radiation. There is more than one type of particle accelerator; they come in two basic types: • Linear • Circular Linear Accelerators The linear accelerator‚ or linac‚ uses microwave technology to accelerate electrons in a part of the accelerator called the "wave guide". Particles pass through a line of hollow metal tubes enclosed in an evacuated cylinder. Within a hollow conductor there is no electric field so a charged particle travels at constant speed inside

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 Pudding Model

heart of our understanding of the structure of atom. New Zealand scientist Ernerst Rutherford was the first to show that the atom is the building block of all matter that consists of a positively charged nucleus surrounded by tiny negatively charged electrons. The extraordinary achievements of these scientists have been instrumental development of chemistry over the past century. Today‚ we take the existence of atoms for granted. We can explain many aspects of the structure of the atom and in fact‚ current
