- Atom | Definition, Structure, History, Examples, Diagram, Facts . . .
All atoms are roughly the same size, whether they have 3 or 90 electrons Approximately 50 million atoms of solid matter lined up in a row would measure 1 cm (0 4 inch) A convenient unit of length for measuring atomic sizes is the angstrom (Å), defined as 10 −10 metre
- Atomic physics | Structure, Particles Energy | Britannica
Through the procedures of wave mechanics, the energies of atoms in various energy states and the characteristic wavelengths they emit may be computed from certain fundamental physical constants—namely, electron mass and charge, the speed of light, and Planck’s constant
- atom - Kids | Britannica Kids | Homework Help
The tiny particles called atoms are the basic building blocks of all matter Atoms can be combined with other atoms to form molecules, but they cannot be divided into smaller parts by ordinary means The word atom comes from the Greek word atomos, meaning “indivisible ” The ancient Greeks were the first to think of the atom as the basic
- Atom - Development, Theory, Structure | Britannica
Studies of the properties of atoms Size of atoms; Electric properties of atoms; Light and spectral lines; Discovery of electrons; Identification of positive ions; Discovery of radioactivity; Models of atomic structure Rutherford’s nuclear model; Moseley’s X-ray studies; Bohr’s shell model; The laws of quantum mechanics; Schrödinger’s
- periodic table - Encyclopedia Britannica
As atoms have more electrons, they have more orbits available to fill, and thus the rows contain more elements farther down in the table Why does the periodic table split? The periodic table has two rows at the bottom that are usually split out from the main body of the table
- Atomism | Definition, Philosophy, History, Facts | Britannica
Atomism in the strict sense is characterized by three points: the atoms are absolutely indivisible, qualitatively identical (i e , distinct only in shape, size, and motion), and combinable with each other only by juxtaposition Other forms of atomism are less strict on these points
- Atom - Electrons, Orbitals, Energy | Britannica
Each element has a unique set of energy levels, and so the frequencies at which it absorbs and emits light act as a kind of fingerprint, identifying the particular element This property of atoms has given rise to spectroscopy, a science devoted to identifying atoms and molecules by the kind of radiation they emit or absorb
- Atom - Mass, Isotopes, Structure | Britannica
The mass of atoms is measured in terms of the atomic mass unit, which is defined to be 1 12 of the mass of an atom of carbon-12, or 1 660538921 × 10 −24 gram The mass of an atom consists of the mass of the nucleus plus that of the electrons, so the atomic mass unit is not exactly the same as the mass of the proton or neutron
