    Etymology The name atom comes from the Greek ἄτομος (atomos‚ "indivisible") from ἀ- (a-‚ "not") and τέμνω (temnō‚ "I cut")‚[3] which means uncuttable‚ or indivisible‚ something that cannot be divided further.[4] The concept of an atom as an indivisible component of matter was first proposed by early Indian and Greek philosophers. In the 18th and 19th centuries‚ chemists provided a physical basis for this idea by showing that certain substances could not be further broken down by chemical methods

    he atom is the basic unit of chemical matter. The atom is the smallest unit that defines the chemical elements and their isotopes. Everything that is solid‚ liquid‚ or gas is made up of atoms. Everything that can be seen and touched is made up of atoms. Atoms are tiny; their size is typically measured in picometers (trillionths of a meter). A single strand of human hair is about one million carbon atoms wide.[1] Every atom is composed of a nucleus made of protons and neutrons (hydrogen-1 has no

    524 SILICON CARBIDE Vol. 22 SILICON CARBIDE 1. Introduction Silicon carbide [409-21-2] (SiC) is a technologically important material that is one of the small number of unusual materials that were first created synthetically and then subsequently discovered in nature. Silicon carbide was first observed in its natural form in 1905 by the Nobel-prize-winning chemist Henri Moissan‚ who discovered it in the meteor that created the Diablo Canyon in Arizona. The transparent mineral‚ now known as

    Oil-Drop Experiment The Millikan Oil-Drop experiment was the first experiment to determine the charge of an electron. In 1909‚ Robert Millikan ultimately came up with a way to determine this charge through finding the minute electric charge on a droplet from an oil mist. Basically‚ Millikan started with an enclosed chamber that had two flat plates inside‚ one with a positive charge and one with a negative charge. The portion is split up by the positively charged plate so at the beginning of the experiment

The overall charge on the molecule then becomes zero. e) Atoms can bond covalently

    Net Neutrality Imagine paying for every website‚ most of the paychecks earned would contribute to the internet fees. Imagine having to go to the library to do research. Right now our internet is free letting people browse anything. Some people can not afford rent or payments. First‚ paying for internet‚ now whoever pays for bill would also have to pay for internet fees. The sites will then be limited. Without Net Neutrality‚ ISPs can block any website they want‚ an ISP is an Internet Service

    An electron microscope is a type of microscope that produces an electronically-magnified image of a specimen for detailed observation. The electron microscope (EM) uses a particle beam of electrons to illuminate the specimen and create a magnified image of it. The microscope has a greater resolving power than a light-powered optical microscope‚ because it uses electrons that have wavelengths about 100‚000 times shorter than visible light (photons)‚ and can achieve magnifications of up to 1‚000‚000x

    1) 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
