Understanding Atomic Structure and Properties

The video lesson begins with a prayer for guidance and introduces the topic of atomic structure. It reviews previous lessons on changes in matter and engages students with a scrabble activity to reinforce chemistry vocabulary. The lesson covers subatomic particles, atomic models, and the historical development of atomic theory. It explains how to use the periodic table to determine atomic number and mass, and provides examples of calculating the number of protons, neutrons, and electrons in various elements. The lesson concludes with practice exercises to reinforce learning.
