|-
|| '''Slide Number 5'''

'''Learning Goals'''
|| Using this Simulation, Students will be able to-

'''Build an atom''' using protons, neutrons and electrons. 

Identify an element and its position on the periodic table. 

Determine whether an atom is neutral or an ion. 

Predict the charge. 
|-
|| '''Slide Number 6'''

'''Learning Goals'''

|-
|| '''Slide Number 7'''

'''Composition Of An Atom'''
|| Atoms are fundamental building blocks of matter.

Each atom consists of a small, dense, positively-charged nucleus.

Nucleus is surrounded by much lighter, negatively-charged electrons.
|-
|| '''Slide Number 8'''

'''Composition Of An Atom'''
|| Nucleus may also contain neutrons.

Neutron has same mass as proton but it has no charge.
|-
|| '''Slide Number 9'''

'''About Atom'''
|| Number of protons in the nucleus of an atom defines the chemical element.

Chemical properties of an element arise due to number & arrangement of electrons.

|-
||Drag a '''Neutron''' and place it on the nucleus.

Point to the '''Mass Number'''.

Drag a '''Neutron''' and place it on the nucleus.
||Add a '''Neutron''' to the nucleus. The atom is now '''Stable'''.

So add another '''Neutron''' to the nucleus.

This completes the atomic structure of '''Helium''' atom.
|-
|| Point to '''Protons''', '''Neutrons''' and '''Electrons'''.
|| '''Helium''' atom has 2 '''Protons''', 2 '''Neutrons''' and 2 '''Electrons'''.
|-
