nuclei of atoms in particular patterns. You will discover these patterns (and how electrons sometimes act like passengers boarding a bus) with the Electron Configuration Gizmo™. To begin‚ check that Lithium is selected on the PERIODIC TABLE tab. 1. The atomic number is equal to the number of protons in an atom. How many protons are in a lithium atom? ________3_____ 2. A neutral atom has the same number of electrons and protons. How many electrons are in a neutral lithium atom? ______3_______

The notion of the atom all stared about 450 BC when a Greek scholar starting think when can something break on more‚ when are the pieces at their smallest‚ this mans name was Leucippus. Leucippus also had pupil who also thought the same way as Leucippus‚ his name was Democritus. They developed there ideas and when Democritus died his theory summed up briefly was that everything in the world was made of tiny pieced that could not be broken up any more. That how the word atom was derived from the Greek

modern concept of the atom. I am going to give a brief history of the atomic model including Thomson’s atom‚ Rutherford’s atom‚ Bohr’s atom‚ and Schrödinger’s atom. I am going to include a diagram for each of these models. In 1897 physicist‚ J.J. Thomson‚ shortly after discovering electrons‚ proposed his Plum-Pudding model of the atom. He based this model on the two facts that he knew at the time: 1. atoms contain small negatively charged particles called electrons and 2. atoms behave as if they

Notes on the history of the atom In 1897 the British physicist Joseph John (J. J.) Thomson (1856–1940) discovered the electron in a series of experiments designed to study the nature of electric discharge in a high-vacuum cathode-ray tube‚ an area being investigated by numerous scientists at the time. Thomson interpreted the deflection of the rays by electrically charged plates and magnets as evidence of &quotbodies much smaller than atoms&quot that he calculated as having a very large value

nuclear energy was linked to military purpose. The Atoms for Peace speech from Eisenhower in 1953 helped to change this point of view. In his speech he persuaded the world increase the researches within the nuclear power field with the focus on the energy possibilities‚ and start to decrease the potential destructive nuclear weapons. He shifted the focus from nuclear energy from war and fear to an open and peaceful way of generating energy (Atoms for Peace). The Dutch government already saw nuclear

At night‚ Carla and her friends went outside to watch the stars peacefully. It had never occurred to them that the night would bring a sudden kidnap. All of Carla’s friends and Carla were attached to two oxygen atoms. Unfortunately‚ Carla fainted during the kidnap so when she woke up‚ she took the surprise of no longer being carbon but carbon
