This essay going to be about an atom. Atom is always around us all the time and ever object are made out of an atom. We, humans, are also made of the atom. Knowing about the structure and what it really is a very important thing to learn as a student. In order to learn about an atom, we will have to understand about Democritus first. So who is Democritus? Democritus is the first human to ever come up with the first atomic theory. Democritus was born in Greece around 460BC. He has a life spend…

Atoms, ions, and isotopes are everything you eat, breathe and see. They are everywhere and everything is made up of them. The first person that aided in the discovery of the atom was Democritus in 400 BC. He is the one that named the atom. The word atom comes from the Greek word atomos which means indivisible. Aristotle which was another flossier in at that same time disagreed with him. He believed that matter could be divide infinitely without changing its properties. At that time more people…

In this Beanium lab, the objective was to make sense of the numbers used to calculate average atomic mass. By separating, counting, and weighing beans we were able to create the numbers used to calculate the weight of one bean. From there, we could use the total number of beans to produce the percent abundance for each type of bean. These were the numbers that we had to produce in order to understand how and why there are many types of isotopes for each element. In doing this lab, we can think…

Natural selection is a concept that has long since interested me, I consider it to mean “survival of the fittest”. Thus, looking upon this title, I deduced that the metaphor, which is used for comparison, implies the following principles of natural selection apply to knowledge development: there is variation in knowledge, the ‘fittest’ knowledge is most suitably adapted to the environment, and superseded knowledge is not fit to survive. Questions and doubts thereby arise: What is meant by the…

equal to the number of positively charged particles inside the nucleus. Through the gold foil experiments he was able to discover the atomic nucleus, which housed most of the atom’s mass, and later the proton in 1917, which was the positively charged particle in the nucleus. In his discovery of the proton, Rutherford converted nitrogen atoms into oxygen atoms by crowding nitrogen with alpha particles. While Rutherford’s Atomic Model was not necessarily correct, it lay down a foundation for the…

charged electrons. Here, the electrons represents the plume in the pudding of positive charge. Hence his model was known as plum pudding model. It was also known as watermelon model where the positive charge was the flesh of the watermelon and the electrons were the sects. a) J.J. Thomson who discovered the electron in 1897, proposed the plum pudding model of the atom in 1904 before the discovery of the atomic nucleus in order to include the electron in the atomic model. b) In Thomson’s model,…

In the chapter “Democritus, Sophie is asked “Why is Lego the most ingenious toy in the world?”(Gaarder 44). This question then leads to the philosopher, Democritus, who is known for the atom theory. Alike the structure of legos, he believed all atoms that made up the universe were “eternal, immutable, and indivisible”(Gaarder 45). Furthermore, Democritus believed all atoms were firm and solid and were all different. Since they were all different, he thought they could join together and form all…

1. Is mercury an appropriate target for AGI? Why or why not? Please clearly cite examples for your reasons. (10 points) There are many reasons that mercury is an appropriate target for AGI. • Both companies are in the same industry of footwear products. • First off the two companies have differentiating strategies and markets that they sell to. AGI will be adding a new market to their company goals and increasing their revenue streams. • AGI strives in the casual footwear segment with a…

This idea helped him develop the nuclear theory of the atom, which has three (3) basic parts:More work by Rutherford and others that wad completed later on demonstrated that the atom's nucleus contains both positively charged protons and…

Chapter Six: Completing the Table…with a Bang 1. What is the difference between a “dirty” bomb and a conventional nuclear bomb? (1 mark) The difference between a “dirty” bomb and a conventional nuclear bomb is that a nuclear bomb is designed to destroy organisms using heat and impact, while a dirty bomb is designed to kill with gamma radiation. Radiation from dirty bombs, besides burning through skin, also alters the DNA in bone marrows, which significantly weakens the body’s immune system, and…
