Atomic+Theory

= = =Georgia Performance Standards = toc a. Relate the role of nuclear fusion in producing essentially all elements heavier than hydrogen. a. Discriminate between the relative size, charge, and position of protons, neutrons, and electrons in the atom. c. Explain the relationship of the proton number to the element’s identity. d. Explain the relationship of isotopes to the relative abundance of atoms of a particular element. =What students should know, understand and be able to do: =  =Unit Essential Question:   = How does the modern atomic theory explain the properties of atoms? 
 * SC1. **** Students will analyze the nature of matter and its classifications. **
 * SC3.**** Students will use the modern atomic theory to explain the characteristics of atoms. **
 * -structure of an atom based on current understanding
 * -modern atomic theory
 * -behavior of subatomic particles
 * -number of subatomic particles
 * -all elements above hydrogen are due to fusion
 * -changes in the number of subatomic particles (isotopes and ions)
 * -relate relative abundance to isotopes and average atomic mass
 * -use information on the periodic table to predict properties of atoms/elements
 * -produce models of atoms
 * -calculate the number of subatomic particles for atoms, ions, isotopes
