such as Russia‚ North Korea‚ and Pakistan continue to develop and test nuclear weapons. This race to develop nuclear weapons was started by the United States near the end of World War II. The U.S. used nuclear weapons in World War II to make the Japanese surrender. The Japanese surrendered five days after the cities Hiroshima and Nagasaki were bombed. Whether this bombing was justified is still debated today. Many people wonder about the future of the world as more powerful nuclear weapons are developed

1. Atomic and Molecular Structure a. Students know how to relate the position of an element in the periodic table to its atomic number and atomic mass. The Periodic Table organizes elements by their atomic number - from hydrogen (1) to whatever is the highest one currently known (>105). It is arranged so that similiar members fall in a list such as Chlorine Bromine etc.. The average atomic weight is usually shown with each element‚ but due to isotopes (caused buy nuclear varations)

quickly before it carried on anymore. Surrendering was not something Japan would do‚ they informed the countries involved in the war on this and would fight till the finish to defend their region of the Pacific. The U.S. chose to use the atomic bomb against Japan in hopes of ending the war swiftly and obtaining ultimate power over post-war decisions. They failed to realize the consequences that would follow their detrimental decision. Not only would the bomb kill thousands of innocent lives‚ consequently

Nuclear Bombs August 6th‚ 1945‚ the US drops the first nuclear bomb in combat over the city of Hiroshima‚ in Japan. This date is a huge part in our history because no weapon of such mass destruction has ever been used in combat like this. Three days later another nuclear bomb is dropped over Nagasaki‚ as soon as the bomb detonated around 80‚000 people died almost instantly showing the sheer power the bomb. A nuclear bomb has never been used in combat since then‚ but nuclear development has created

Chemistry Atomic Structure: The Electron A myriad of trends occur on the periodic table‚ whether it is defined through the size of the atoms or the first ionization energy that may occur‚ many other trends can be found simply looking horizontally or vertically on to the table. As you look from left to right you can see that the reactivity of the elements increase‚ this is due to the number of electrons increasing on the shell. This also once you go down the table; the shells become further and
