Atomic Physics Lab Report

Through the understanding of the structure of the atom, scientist were able to isolate system of electrons and atomic nucleus. The atomic part of physics is primarily concerned with the arrangement of electrons around the nucleus and the processes by which the arrangements was changed. Atomic theory has affected the field of physics in a way that has given scientist knowledge on how to produce an atomic bomb. Scientists has differentiated between atomic physics that deals with the atom as a system involving a nucleus and electrons, and the system that deals with nuclear physics that is considered atomic nuclei alone.
Learning Objectives: -
At the end of this lesson, students should be able to:
 Define molecule and atom.
 List the primary structure or components of an atom.
 Recognize how physicist uses their research knowledge of the atomic structure to develop modern technologies.
Introduction/Motivation: -
Instructor asks student about the structure of atom. The instructor explains to the students that all living things are made up of a tiny particle called matter. Atoms are the main components that made of matter. In many cases, atoms bond together to form molecules. The smallest part of element that maintain all its properties …show more content…
Instruction explains some concepts to students, by saying that anything that has mass and can occupy space is called matter. Atoms are the main components that make up matters. Name the particles that are in different form in an atom; answer to this question is electrons, protons and neutrons. Where protons and neutrons are found in an atom? Answer: proton can be find in the nucleus, and electrons are located in the shells outside of the nucleus. Can someone in the class defines a molecule? Answer: A molecule is defined as the smallest part of a substance that has all the properties of that
