speak)‚ there is much information regarding its atomic buildup. Every element’s atoms are composed of three main subatomic particles: neutrons‚ electrons and protons. Located in the atom’s nucleus‚ protons and neutrons are referred to as nucleons. The electrons rest outside of the nucleus at various energy levels (orbitals). Most of an atom’s mass comes from its very small nucleus‚ whose protons and neutrons each have a mass of approximately 1 u (atomic mass units). Electrons‚ on the other hand‚ have

The world changed in 1945 when the atomic bomb was dropped on Japan‚ many people have debated whether or not this was necessary. The United States atomic bombing of Japan was justified. The Japanese would not have given up if the United States had not dropped the two atomic bombs.

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
