Modeling Atoms, Elements, Compounds

 Practice questions:   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 : 

practice making a model of ATOM, ELEMENT, COMPOUND, MIXTURE  and label it. 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.

Make as many combinations of compounds as you can with the boxes of lego provided

Take a picture of the work you did in class
