Atoms Simulation
Structure of an Atom
The discovery process of the atom Democritus (Ancient Greece) – Predict the presence of an atom Dalton (UK, 1800) – Applied atomic chemistry Krux (Britain, late 19th century) – Invented a cathode ray tube to explain … more
Nuclear Chain Reaction
Caution This simulation is intended to understand the principle of fission, and the proportions of the model presented may not match the reality. The nucleus was exaggerated and drawed large. The electrons around the nucleus were … more
Energy Band of Metal
Energy band and band gap of atom According to Niels Bohr’s atomic model, electrons subordinate to an atomic nucleus do not have continuous energy. Electrons can only have sparsely defined energies. This is why lines in … more
Bohr’s Atomic Model
The discovery process of the atom Democritus (Ancient Greece) – Predict the presence of an atom Dalton (UK, 1800) – Applied atomic chemistry Krux (Britain, late 19th century) – Invented a cathode ray tube to explain … more
Scale of Atom
Each click on the screen increases or decreases by 10 times. The structure of the atom The matter is composed of atoms such as hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen, and the size of the atom is … more
Half Life Period of a Radioactive Substance
Radioactive decay The radioactive material can collapse its own nucleus structure. At the same time, the nucleus emits some small particles or energy to the outside. The emitted particles and radioactive energy can cause damage to … more
Rutherford Scattering
Discovery of nuclei At the beginning of the 20th century, little was known about atoms’ structure, except that atoms contain electrons. At the time, the atom was thought to be as a model of pudding containing … more
Absorption and Emission of Light
The energy level of the atom Atoms are made up of an atomic nucleus and electrons that revolve around the nucleus. In Bohr’s atomic model, electrons can change their position by receiving energy (mainly light energy). … more
Flame Test
* This simulation take the spectral data from NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF STANDARDS AND TECHNOLOGY. When heat is applied to the atoms, some electrons can have high energy levels and fall to the lower levels. Some electrons … more
Electron Configuration of an Atom
Orbital An atom has an atomic nucleus with a (+) charge at the center and electrons with a negative charge around it. Electrons are arranged according to certain rules (wave functions), which are called ‘orbitals.’ In … more
Quantum of Light
This simulation assumed that a candle emits all its energy in only one specific wavelength. The power of the candle is assumed to be 50W. The emitted wave diagram is for understanding only and does not … more
