✏️L3.1 Formative Lesson: Electron Configuration

Lesson 3.1: Electron Configuration

Objective: I will be able to explain how electrons are organized.

This lesson starts with a practice set!

Use this practice set to activate your previous knowledge. Hint: Check Lesson 2.1 and Lesson 2.2

Fill in the Blanks

What is the charge of the electron?

Fill in the Blanks

What is the relative mass of the electron?

This means that electrons are 1820 times smaller than protons and neutrons!
