    1) The document provides instructions for an activity to help students learn about atomic structure. It introduces key terms like atom, ion, charge, and subatomic particles. 2) Students are asked to draw and label a basic model of an atom without outside resources. They then use an online simulation to explore atomic structure in more detail. 3) By exploring the simulation and answering questions, students identify protons, neutrons, and electrons as subatomic particles and learn their roles in determining elemental identity, mass, and charge of atoms and ions.

    CS 1: Atomic Structure
    LT 1: understand the basic structure of an atom

    When you are completed with this activity, you will be able to:

     Identify the building blocks of an atom and their location in the atom structure.
     Identify which atomic building blocks inform element identity, atom charge, and atom mass.
     Use an element symbol to determine the number of each subatomic particle in an atom and
    an ion of that element.
    Complete this page in the student notebook. On the top is prior knowledge and on the
    bottom is your drawing after completing this activity.
    Model 1. The Atom, Prior Knowledge
    With another student, come up with a single drawing that represents a possible model for an
    atom. Do not read ahead in this exercise. Do not consult your book or other written resources
    (no Googling please!). Feel free to use color to enhance your drawing below.

    Group drawing/model of the atom: do this in your notebook

    New terms that you must know to complete this activity:

    Atom
    Ion
    Neutral
    Charged
    Sign and Magnitude of charge
    Particles
    Stable
    Net charge
    Mass number

    Model 2. Open the Build an Atom! at http://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulation/build-an-atom
    Click to Run, as the icon suggests. If a new web browser does not open with a simulation
    in it, then ask an instructor for assistance. Spend a few minutes exploring the model
    (feel free to play a bit!) and then, with a partner, agree upon answers to the
    following questions:

    Key Questions
    1. What different kinds of “particles” do you have as building materials for an atom?
    a)
    b)
    c)

    2. Are you limited as to where you can put any of these “particles”? If so, briefly describe
    any limitations in the space below.

    3. How many different uncharged (neutral) stable hydrogen atoms can you build? ____
    In the space below, briefly describe the similarities and differences in their composition.

    4. Which particle/particles affect the element name of the atom you build?

    5. Which particle/particles are primarily responsible for the mass of the atom you build?
    Provide evidence from the simulation to support your answer.

    6. Use the simulation to build three different atoms that are all neutral. Record information
    about their composition in the table below.
    Element Element #protons #neutrons #electrons Mass Net
    Name Symbol Number Charge

    7. Which particle/particles affect the net charge of the atom you build? Justify your answer
    with data from your table above.

    8. In the space below, provide a general expression to clearly describe how to use your
    knowledge of an atom’s composition to determine the sign and magnitude of its charge.

    9. Find the symbol for the element nickel on the periodic table.

    a) How many electrons are in a charged atom (an ion) of Ni2+? What information
    did you use to determine this answer?

    b) What do all nickel atoms and ions have in common? What information did you
    use to determine this answer?

    10. Make a drawing of any atom in your notebook in the space below the atom you
    drew at the beginning of this activity. Be sure to give it a name and correctly label
    the subatomic particles.
