Atoms - The Basics

You may have studied atoms and the periodic table of elements before in another class. Before you begin this topic, make a list of all of the elements of which you can think. These may be items that you use every day, or they may be exotic elements that are rarely found in nature.

Once you have made your list, download and install the the Periodic Table of Elements application from WHRO Education Online Courses. Review how many elements you listed versus the number available on the periodic table of elements. After you explore the information part of the application, play the quizzing game to see how much you know about the periodic table of elements as a whole.
