Atomic Mass Mass Spectrometer
455 wordsThe moles beginning is traced back to the most basic units of matter, atoms. Since atoms are extremely small, scientists have perplexed a great deal over finding a way to measure atomic mass. They struggled to find a universal container that had the capability to mass atoms. Measuring the mass of one atom on a balance in grams is not practical, because the result in grams is an amount too small to be of any use in the laboratory. Fortunately, a new idea came about. If two or more same amounts of...

Valence Electrons Periodic Table
854 wordsThe periodic table is simply the organization and classification of different elements. By the end of the 1700 s, scientists had identified about 30 elements. In less than 100 years, the number of known element doubled because of new means of recognizing them. In the early 1800 s, Dobereiner observed that there were elements that could be classified into groups of 3, or triads. These triads were significant because these classifications of similar elements represented the very beginning of the p...

Friction At The Atomic Scale
1,010 wordsFriction at the atomic scale. From the article "Friction at the Atomic Scale" by Jacqueline Krim we learn that standard friction and friction at the atomic scale are quite different. In my summary paper I would like to try to explain that fact based on the article. Having used different apparatus, the scientists made an experiment to prove that physicists didnt pay enough attention to the study of frictions atomic level or nano tribology for a long time wrongly. However now it was determined tha...

They called these particles atoms, meaning not divisible. Then came the chemists and physicists of the 16 th and 17 th centuries who discovered various formulae of various salts and water, hence discovering the idea of a molecule. Then, in 1766 was born a man named J...

951 wordsTHE ATOMIC BOMB Seven months after the discovery of the neutron, on September 12, 1932, Leo Szilard inaugurated the possibility of a controlled release of atomic power through a multiplying neutron chain reaction. Leo was legally recognized as the inventor of the atomic bomb on July 4, 1934. He described not only the basic concept of using neutron induced chain reactions to create explosions, but also the key concept of the critical mass. There are 2 types of atomic explosions, one in which two ...
