Atomic Structure AssignmentHello all, I have explained the concepts of an atomic structure in my last few lessons. I am quite sure you are keen to share your understanding with all the bloggers and me....write as much as you can about it...., I will be very impressed!! Please enjoy completing the assignments below :
1. What does an atom looks like? What are the sub-atomic particles inside it.....(talk about electrons, neutrons, protons, electron shells, nucleus....)
2. Draw the atomic structure of a sodium atom and a sodium ion....explain why you draw it this way.
3. Draw the atomic structure of a sulfur atom and a sulfide ion....explain why you draw it this way.
4. Chlorine-35 atom and Chlorine-37 atom are called isotopes...Use these two examples to explain what is 'isotopes'.
5. Sodium is a metal and sulfur is a non-metal....why we classify them this way??
