What is an atom?
An analogy for Atoms, Compounds and Formula, drawn by SN This video is the first in the series for beginner Chemistry. In this video, I use the analogy of the atom as units very much like "lego bricks". This analogy was first used by researchers in MIT.
assignment :
1. practice making a model of ATOM, ELEMENT, COMPOUND, MIXTURE using lego and label it
2. practice making lego formulae. Take a picture of the lego formulae you did in class
We will learn the analogy of LEGO and practice building lego compounds, and writing lego formulae
Take a picture of the work you did in class
3. Colour code the periodic table
4. write your hypothesis on the calcium demo in your class observations channel.
