Atomic Structure and the Periodic Table

Atomic Structure and the Periodic Table

In this video you are going to learn about atomic structure and the Periodic Table of Elements. Atoms are everywhere and make up all matter! They are all structured differently and their protons, neutrons, and electrons cause them to all behave differently. Different numbers of protons, electrons, and neutrons cause them to be isotopes, ions, or completely different elements. They are all arranged on the Periodic Table of Elements. Whether you are teaching or studying for Chemistry or Physical Science, maybe you are just curious...COME LEARN WITH US and SHARE!
