GCSE Physics - Atomic Structure, Isotopes & Electrons Shells #32

This video tutorial covers the fundamental concepts of atomic structure, including the nucleus, protons, neutrons, and electrons. It explains how elements are represented in the periodic table, focusing on nuclear symbols, atomic numbers, and mass numbers. The video also delves into isotopes, their stability, and the process of radioactive decay. Additionally, it explores electron energy levels, how electrons can become excited, and the concept of ionization, where atoms become ions by losing electrons.
