Periodic Table, Atoms, Model of the Atom, Valence Electrons | High School
Simulation: Periodic Trends: Ionization Energy, Atomic Radius & Ionic Radius Mark as Favorite (0 Favorites)
In this simulation, students can investigate the periodic trends of atomic radius, ionization energy, and ionic radius. By choosing elements from the periodic table, atoms can be selected for a side by side comparison and analysis. Students can also attempt to ionize an atom by removing its valence electrons. Quantitative data is available for each periodic trend, and can be further examined in a graph.

Lesson Plan: Modeling Energy in Chemistry: Energy and the Electron Mark as Favorite (1 Favorite)
This activity is designed for students to build a scientific argument about the relationship between energy and spectral lines by exploring how light interacts with atoms. In the process, students will examine proposed models of the hydrogen atom and use collected data to analyze the proposed models. They will then select one of the models and write a scientific argument to support their choice. Students will then review additional data to support and/or refute their selection. Based on their analysis, students will revise their selected model and construct a new argument to support their revisions.

Periodic Table, Model of the Atom | High School
Animation: Atomic & Ionic Radii Animation Mark as Favorite (0 Favorites)
This animation explores patterns in atomic and ionic radii. Students will look at the different sizes of atoms in the third period and the atoms in the sixth group to see trends across periods and down groups. They will also look at an atom and its corresponding cation as well as an atom and its corresponding anion.

Activity: Periodic Trends I: Ionization Energy, Atomic Radius & Ionic Radius Mark as Favorite (0 Favorites)
In this simulation, students will investigate several periodic trends, including atomic radius, ionization energy and ionic radius. Through the use of this simulation students will have the opportunity to examine atomic data as well as visually compare and interact with select elements from the periodic table.

Periodic Table, Atoms, Model of the Atom | High School
Simulation: Periodic Trends II: Electron Affinity, Atomic Radius & Ionic Radius Mark as Favorite (0 Favorites)
The May 2016 simulation is a follow-up to the March 2016 simulation. Students will focus their investigation on the electron affinity of an atom. Through the use of this simulation students will have the opportunity to examine the formation of an anion as well as compare the atomic radius of a neutral atom to the ionic radius of its anion.

Lab: Sweet Model of the Atom Mark as Favorite (0 Favorites)
In this lesson, students will use different candies to represent electrons, protons, and neutrons to gain a better understanding of atoms, ions, and isotopes.

Model of the Atom | Middle School
Project: Augmented Reality and the Atomic Model Mark as Favorite (0 Favorites)
In this project, students will first work with a partner to select a common element from the periodic table to research. They will create a video using iPods to present their research and they will access the Aurasma app on iPods to upload their video. Students will create a trigger image using a picture of the element from the periodic table. Secondly, the students will use the Aurasma App to scan a different element’s trigger image and will use information from another group’s video to construct a model that replicates the atomic structure for the selected element.
