NOTES: |
This unit includes five programs that cover the following concepts: atoms - explains that molecules are made up of atoms, that in pure metals all the atoms are arranged separately in a latticework pattern, but in most nonmetals, liquids, and gasses, the atoms are bunched together into molecules; electrons - it illustrates how electrons whiz so quickly around the nucleus that they appear to form layers; and conduction - looks at the process of conduction, explaining that the application of heat to an object makes the molecules or atoms vibrate faster and cause a sort of " domino effect." |
