Science Nspired - Chemistry - Atomic Structure and Periodic Table by Texas Instruments

The Periodic Table is one of the most important tools for chemists. Understanding the Periodic Table is dependent upon learning the structure of the atom. This unit will allow the student to discover the periodic trends and their relationship to atomic structure.

Chemistry: Atomic Structure and Periodic Table Classroom Activities	Type	Download
Simulations
Periodicity of Properties Exploration In this lesson, students will plot and analyze the periodic properties (melting point, boiling point, density, electronegativity, and first ionization). Standards Textbook		Download14,280
Build an Atom (HS) In this lesson, students will simulate, observe, and manipulate the variables that affect the structure and, therefore, the properties of an atom. Standards Textbook		Download3,398
Electron Configurations In this lesson, students will explore an interactive periodic table, using sliders to move around the table. The electron configuration of the element is displayed graphically. The electron configuration is also displayed in the standard textual form. Standards Textbook		Download8,408
Waves and Spectrum Exploration In this lesson, students will study the relationship between wavelength, frequency, and color through an interactive simulation. Standards Textbook		Download7,440
Isotopes and Atomic Mass In this lesson, students will use a simulation of a mass spectrometer. Students will use a slider to adjust the magnetic field to direct either Cl-35 or Cl-37 to the detector. Standards Textbook		Download6,367
Radioactive Dating Game (HS) In this lesson, students will simulate radioactive dating at an archeological site. Standards Textbook		Download2,589
Data Collection
Beer's Law Data Collection Lab In this lesson, students will use a Colorimeter to discover the relationship between absorbance and concentration of a solution to ultimately determine an unknown solution. Standards Textbook		Download6,862
