<p>The <strong>atomic theory</strong> was initially proposed by Dalton, which suggested the follow

Rutherford's Model and Modern Atomic Theory

This section covers the groundbreaking ernest rutherford gold foil experiment and subsequent atomic models.

Highlight: Rutherford's gold foil experiment discovered that atoms have a dense, positive nucleus surrounded by mostly empty space.

Definition: The Bohr model introduced specific energy levels for electrons orbiting the nucleus.

Example: The quantum model represents electrons as having wave-like properties within probability clouds.

Vocabulary: Electron cloud - the outer region of an atom where electrons are found in a probability distribution.


<h2 id="atomictheory">Atomic Theory</h2>
<p>The <strong>atomic theory</strong> was initially proposed by Dalton, which suggested the follow

Subatomic Particles

This page details the fundamental particles that make up atoms and their properties.

Definition: Subatomic particles are the building blocks of atoms: protons, neutrons, and electrons.

Highlight: Each particle has specific characteristics:

  • Protons: positive charge, located in nucleus
  • Neutrons: no charge, located in nucleus
  • Electrons: negative charge, found in electron cloud

Example: The mass of an electron 9.109×1031kg9.109 × 10⁻³¹ kg is much smaller than that of protons or neutrons.


<h2 id="atomictheory">Atomic Theory</h2>
<p>The <strong>atomic theory</strong> was initially proposed by Dalton, which suggested the follow

Atomic Number and Mass Number

This section explains how to identify and characterize atoms using their fundamental properties.

Definition: Atomic number is the number of protons in an atom's nucleus.

Vocabulary: Mass number - the sum of protons and neutrons in an atom.

Example: In notation format, the atomic number ZZ appears as a subscript and mass number AA as a superscript.

Highlight: For neutral atoms, the number of electrons equals the number of protons.


<h2 id="atomictheory">Atomic Theory</h2>
<p>The <strong>atomic theory</strong> was initially proposed by Dalton, which suggested the follow

Ions and Isotopes

This page covers variations in atomic structure through ions and isotopes.

Definition: Ions are atoms that have gained or lost electrons, resulting in a net charge.

Vocabulary: Isotopes are atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons.

Example: Sodium can form Na⁺ by losing an electron, while Bromine can form Br⁻ by gaining an electron.


<h2 id="atomictheory">Atomic Theory</h2>
<p>The <strong>atomic theory</strong> was initially proposed by Dalton, which suggested the follow

Atomic Structure Applications

The final page provides practical applications and key points about atomic structure.

Highlight: When identifying atomic structure, consider:

  • Neutral atoms have equal protons and electrons
  • Ions have unequal protons and electrons
  • Isotopes have different numbers of neutrons

Example: For Helium-3, the mass number is 3, atomic number is 2, resulting in 1 neutron.

Definition: Average atomic mass is calculated using the natural abundance of an element's isotopes.


<h2 id="atomictheory">Atomic Theory</h2>
<p>The <strong>atomic theory</strong> was initially proposed by Dalton, which suggested the follow

Early Atomic Models and Dalton's Theory

The foundation of modern atomic theory begins with Dalton's model and progresses through various refinements. This page introduces fundamental concepts about atomic structure and early models.

Definition: An atom is the smallest part of an element that retains its chemical properties.

Highlight: Dalton's Atomic Theory proposed five key principles about the nature of matter and atoms, though some were later modified.

Example: The plum pudding model by Thompson used cathode ray tubes to discover electrons, showing atoms had internal structure.

Quote: "Atoms can be subdivided, created, and destroyed atomicbomb,manmadeelementsatomic bomb, man-made elements."

The app is very easy to use and well designed. I have found everything I was looking for so far and have been able to learn a lot from the presentations! I will definitely use the app for a class assignment! And of course it also helps a lot as an inspiration.

This app is really great. There are so many study notes and help [...]. My problem subject is French, for example, and the app has so many options for help. Thanks to this app, I have improved my French. I would recommend it to anyone.

Wow, I am really amazed. I just tried the app because I've seen it advertised many times and was absolutely stunned. This app is THE HELP you want for school and above all, it offers so many things, such as workouts and fact sheets, which have been VERY helpful to me personally.

I think it’s very much worth it and you’ll end up using it a lot once you get the hang of it and even after looking at others notes you can still ask your Artificial intelligence buddy the question and ask to simplify it if you still don’t get it!!! In the end I think it’s worth it 😊👍 ⚠️Also DID I MENTION ITS FREEE YOU DON’T HAVE TO PAY FOR ANYTHING AND STILL GET YOUR GRADES IN PERFECTLY❗️❗️⚠️

Knowunity is the BEST app I’ve used in a minute. This is not an ai review or anything this is genuinely coming from a 7th grade student (I know 2011 im young) but dude this app is a 10/10 i have maintained a 3.8 gpa and have plenty of time for gaming. I love it and my mom is just happy I got good grades

Not only did it help me find the answer but it also showed me alternative ways to solve it. I was horrible in math and science but now I have an a in both subjects. Thanks for the help🤍🤍

The app's just great! All I have to do is enter the topic in the search bar and I get the response real fast. I don't have to watch 10 YouTube videos to understand something, so I'm saving my time. Highly recommended!

In school I was really bad at maths but thanks to the app, I am doing better now. I am so grateful that you made the app.

I found this app a couple years ago and it has only gotten better since then. I really love it because it can help with written questions and photo questions. Also, it can find study guides that other people have made as well as flashcard sets and practice tests. The free version is also amazing for students who might not be able to afford it. Would 100% recommend

Best app if you're in Highschool or Junior high. I have been using this app for 2 school years and it's the best, it's good if you don't have anyone to help you with school work.😋🩷🎀

THE QUIZES AND FLASHCARDS ARE SO USEFUL AND I LOVE THE SCHOOLGPT. IT ALSO IS LITREALLY LIKE CHATGPT BUT SMARTER!! HELPED ME WITH MY MASCARA PROBLEMS TOO!! AS WELL AS MY REAL SUBJECTS ! DUHHH 😍😁😲🤑💗✨🎀😮

This app is phenomenal down to the correct info and the various topics you can study! I greatly recommend it for people who struggle with procrastination and those who need homework help. It has been perfectly accurate for world 1 history as far as I’ve seen! Geometry too!
