    What are the parts of an atom? Where are the subatomic particles found? The atoms are the smallest units of matter with their own chemical characteristics. The atoms are divided into 2 parts. The first part is the central nucleus and the electron cloud. The central nucleus contains very heavy particles and the electron cloud contains very light moving particles. The subatomic particles are the protons‚ neutrons‚ and the electrons. They are located within the atom and the electrons spin rapidly

    Chemical Properties of Egg Tempera Art is traditionally viewed as a creative process far removed from science. However‚ beyond the imaginative efforts that contribute to the creation of a work of art are the physical materials that are used as the medium. While science is not an essential part of the thought and design process‚ an understanding of the chemical properties of different art media is integral to creating a work of art that will not only match the artist’s vision but will also stand

    Jessica Robins Lab 3: Properties of Organic Compounds Introduction Distillation is a physical process used to separate chemicals from a mixture by how easy they vaporize. The temperature rises unit it reaches the temperature of the lowest boiling substance in the mixture while the other contents of the mixture remain in their original phase (until the most volatile substance has all boiled off) as it’s heated. Hot vapor results and passes into a condenser and is then converted to a liquid

    molecule of water A chemist’s view of the world is not as narrow as one might think! Yes‚ we start with the atom‚ and then go on to the rules governing the kinds of structural units that can be made from them. We are taught early on to predict the properties of bulk matter from these geometric arrangements. And then we come to H2O‚ and are shocked to find that many of these predictions are way off‚ and that water (and by implication‚ life itself) should not even exist on our planet! But we soon
