Delve into the world of quantum mechanics by viewing this PowerPoint. Chemistry novices learn about electron energy and shells, and they practice listing electron configuration for different atoms. Because this presentation provides...

Young mathematical scientists interact with protons and electrons in an atom to create a neutrally charged atom. They answer questions based on their findings throughout the interactive resource.

The periodic table of elements is a vital tool for all chemistry apprentices and professionals alike. Here is a chance for your beginning chemists to assess their understanding of the periodic table. They list element names, symbols,...

The first of two worksheets methodically prepares chemistry novices for naming polyatomic compounds. It begins by having them acknowledge the number of each atom contained in a molecule. Then learners list the valence electrons for a...

After drawing the valence electron distribution of 13 basic elements, there are spaces to draw 18 more complicated molecules.  For each molecule, there is space for a Dot structure and Lewis structure that best describes the...

Get down to basics with these worksheets on the structure of atoms. Challenging young chemists to identify information from the periodic table and create Bohr diagrams and Lewis dot structures for different elements, this...

This is a tremendous overview of the tiny atom. Journey through the history of human understanding of this basic building block of matter. Examine each of the sub-atomic particles in detail: neutrons, protons, electrons, quarks. Peruse...

Students are introduced to the concepts of magnetism and electronics. As a class, they walk through the steps of the scientific method and define new vocabulary. In groups, they are given a bag of objects and they are to separate them...

In this bonding worksheet, students complete a chart of elements, their symbols, the total number of electrons, the number of valence electrons and the oxidation numbers. They draw Lewis structures for atoms and show the transfer of...

Basically walk your early electronics techs through the vocabulary relating to an electronic circuit. Give them an LED light, a resistor, a battery, and some clips, then have them construct a simple circuit. Specific electronic equipment...

Simple in format and standard in content, this resource is an assessment of your beginning chemists' grasp of the atom. Using a periodic table of elements, they fill in a chart of missing chemical formulas, atomic masses, and numbers of...

High schoolers are able to discuss the difference between a proton, a neutron and an electron. They also can explain the difference between an ionic and a covalent bond. Students know the main structure of atoms and molecules. Student...

This PowerPoint provides a complete recap of all the information needed for a unit on elements and the periodic table. The seventy slides cover the basic notation of elements, energy levels and ionization energies. The trends in the...

Each of these slides presents the basic scientific details and situations where charge, or static may appear. Handouts of the empty PowerPoint slides could be provided so that students could work through these examples and correctly...

Using a copy of the periodic table, chemistry test takers fill in a chart with element name, chemical symbol, atomic number, atomic mass, and numbers of subatomic particles. They define subatomic particles, draw atom models, explain...

Shock your physical science class using this video to teach the basics of static electricity. Electricity is defined,and electrons are differentiated from protons on an atom model. The use of hydropower and wind are explained as ways of...

Some basic chemistry concepts are fundamental to understanding biology. Learners explore how molecular structure plays a role in biological processes, especially the structure of the water molecule. The final page focuses on water's...

Your students should enjoy this slideshow which includes some basic definitions about the atomic structure of atoms. In fact, this presentation would be best-viewed before giving details and diagrams of neutrons, protons and quarks. The...

Various situations are listed here and the state of conditions listed. The effect of those conditions on resistance in electronic circuits is explained and then pupils are told whether the transistor is switched on or off. These details...

What's smaller than a kiwi seed? Atoms! Basic atomic structure is detailed for beginning chemists in a light-hearted animation. Protons and neutrons are explained as part of the nucleus, and so are electrons that encircle the nucleus....

In this chemistry worksheet, students complete each of the bonds listed. They draw the Lewis structures for each atom and show the transfer of electrons and charge for each ion. Students also draw the Lewis structures for each atom and...

In this chemistry worksheet, students complete the chart for each of the given elements by naming the number of protons, electrons, Valence electrons, and the electrons used to fill the outer shell. Then they complete each covalent bond...

Students participate in an Electron Square Dance in which they act the part of atoms. They follow the structure of different atoms suggested by the teacher.

In this chemistry activity, students complete the chart for each of the listed elements, including the number of protons, electrons, and valence electrons. Then they complete each of the ionic bonds that follows.
