In the same way our Earth revolves around the Sun, electrons revolve around the nucleus. Electrons are negatively charged particles, which means they are held in orbit by the difference in charges between them and the positively charged protons in the nucleus. For an atom to be stable it must have an equal number of electrons and protons. If an atom loses or gains electrons, instead of changing what element it is like with protons, it becomes what&#8217;s called an ion. This means that the atom is still the same element but it now has a charge. If an atom loses one electron for example it would have a charge of +1 since it now has 1 less negatively charged particle. On the other hand if it were to gain two electrons it would have a charge of -2 as it gained two extra negatively charged particles<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div

subatomic particles. Unlike the other two neutrons have no atomic charge and therefore have little effect on the type or ionic state of the atom. Neutrons do play a part though in atomic weight. Neutrons are located in the nucleus along with the protons and weigh almost the same amount as a proton.\u00a0<span style=\"color: var(--ast-global-color-3); font-size: 1rem;\">In a regular atom the number of neutrons can vary.<\/span><span style=\"color: var(--ast-global-color-3); font-size: 1rem;\">\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; color: var(--ast-global-color-3);\">\u00a0Each element has a unique number of neutrons in its nucleus in its most common form. However there are also often atoms that don&#8217;t fit this regular number. These atoms with extra, or less neutrons, then their elements most common form are called isotopes. For example the most common form of the natural element Carbon is Carbon-12, named this because it has 6 protons and 6 neutrons so its atomic weight is approximately 12 atomic measurement units. Although Carbon-12 is the most common when scientists do certain procedures such as Carbon dating they actually look for an isotope called Carbon-14, which has two more neutrons, as the amount can indicate the age of an organic object, More neutrons also means a heavier atom. For another example a common home issue in plumbing and showers is called &#8220;heavy water&#8221;. Regular water is composed of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. When water becomes &#8220;heavy&#8221; it means that the hydrogen atoms, which regularly contain just a proton and an electron, now contain a neutron as well, making the atoms weigh twice as much. This isotope of hydrogen is called Deuterium and this new Deuterium-oxide or heavy water can create issues when ingested. In small amounts it is fine but when taken in in large amounts that extra weight can cause a slow in bodily reactions which can cause issues. So altogether while neutrons might not have an effect on an atoms identity or charge they can certainly affect it&#8217;s weight and reactability.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6850e52 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"6850e52\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a1efb3f elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"a1efb3f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">The Periodic Table:<\/h3>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-2ae9f9b elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"2ae9f9b\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-c5d2fae\" data-id=\"c5d2fae\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e72d05a elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"e72d05a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Many of us have seen this table before, and if not you will almost certainly see it in high school chemistry and onward. The periodic table is a visual organization of every natural element we have discovered, which is currently a total of 118 elements. Each element is separated by its number of protons. This number is called the atoms &#8220;atomic number&#8221;. For example Hydrogen has only one proton so it is the first element with an atomic number of 1, while an atom of Krypton has 36 protons and therefore is the 36th element on the table with an atomic number of 36. Because of this if an atom changes how many protons it has then it also changes what element it is. An atom&#8217;s protons determine its identity.

data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>a carbon atom. In order to do this we must first look at how many of each particle a Carbon atom even has. Well according to Carbon&#8217;s periodic table entry we can see it has an atomic number of six, from which we can determine it has six protons. Let&#8217;s go ahead and drag these 6 protons from the proton bin onto the center &#8220;x&#8221;. Hey! Now it says we have Carbon, but wait, its unstable. To solve that we can look at the neutrons. When atoms don&#8217;t have a viable number of neutrons they can become unstable and break apart, and we don&#8217;t want that here. Let&#8217;s again look at the periodic table entry. Carbon has a mass of about 12 amu. Since electrons have a nearly negligible weight and protons and neutrons each have a weight of approximately 1 amu we can find the number of neutrons we need. Since total we have 12 amu we can subtract off the 6amu from our 6 protons which leaves us with 6 amu of neutrons or six neutrons. Let&#8217;s go ahead and add those now. Now it&#8217;s stable! But wait, let&#8217;s click the plus by the net charge tab. Our atom isn&#8217;t neutral and has a charge of +6. Normal atoms in an ionic state will search for electrons so that they can become stable as quickly as possible. Let&#8217;s make our atom stable. If we currently have a +6 charge we need a -6 to balance it out. Since each electron has a -1 charge we would need 6 electrons to balance that out. Let&#8217;s go ahead and add those now. Now we have a stable, neutral Carbon atom.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-97a6208 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"97a6208\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h5 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Challenge: In the symbol tab you can see that instead of physically displaying the numbers of each particle the numbers appear as they would in a periodic table entry.

Let&#8217;s first view the force that happens when you set one proton and one electron against each other. To view this we can set charge 1 to -1<span style=\"color: var(--ast-global-color-3); font-size: 1rem;\">\u00b5C and the other to 1<\/span><span style=\"color: var(--ast-global-color-3); font-size: 1rem;\">\u00b5C as if they hold the charge of each particle. Now let&#8217;s drag particles over to the right as far as they will go. Here is our maximum force at these charges and it is 45.855 N. Now let&#8217;s see what happens when we start moving the negative particle to the left. The force decreases! This is the first rule with coulomb&#8217;s law.

This would be like raising the element. Lets set them to a fixed distance. From here let&#8217;s look at their force measurement to remember. Now change the positively charged particle to 4 instead of 1. The force increases! This is due to the greater charge difference between the electron, and in this case, the four protons in the nucleus. In cases like this even if we had four separate electrons each one would experience this same force. This is another rule of Coulomb&#8217;s law.

They fill shells around the nucleus called orbitals. The first orbital can only hold two electrons. The next two orbitals can hold 8 electrons. The next two orbitals hold 18 electrons. These last two orbitals though fill in an irregular patternAll orbitals after this do not follow such a simple pattern, however we will only need as far as the fifth orbital for this unit. These orbitals though, are another way to show the change in distance between electrons and the nucleus. Distance increases as orbitals increases. Also the electrons in the outermost orbital for an atom are called <b>valence electrons<\/b>. Valence electrons usually have the least force of attraction on them as they are furthest from the protons in the nucleus.\u00a0<\/p><p>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 One trend on the periodic table as well follows the orbitals. The first row has two elements. The next two have 8. The next two have 18. Is this pure coincidence? No, as with most scientific coincidences this has meaning. The periodic table is designed this way so that the entire column on the left, known as the noble gasses, have completely full orbitals. This means that with each row the distance between electrons and the nucleus increases. This also means that the size of atoms increases. One thing to keep in mind is that as you move down the periodic table though, the distance increases meaning that valence electrons become more susceptible to becoming free. The other name for this removing force is called i<b>onization energy<\/b> as it refers to the force it would require to remove an electron and thus make the atom an ion.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4ad7ea0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"4ad7ea0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">A Proton Pattern:<\/h4>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c69bd82 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c69bd82\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 While distance was one factor in making electrons easy to remove, so two was the number of protons pulling on the electron.

As you move left across a row on the periodic table, the proton number increases without an increase in the distance between charged particles. This is just like the second part of the interactive and so as predicted the force increases. From this we can see that as you move across rows on the periodic table the ionization energy rises.\u00a0<\/p><p>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 A way scientists view how susceptible atoms are to losing electrons, especially in those elements whose orbitals do not fill in a regular order, is by looking at how many valence electrons the atom has. If it has just one then that means that one electron has a great distance with as few protons in the nucleus as it could have at that distance from the nucleus. If there were two we now could predict that the force has increased because another electron means another proton. This continues as more valence electrons appear. Because of this when scientists look for elements to carry electricity with low ionization energies they usually look to those with only one valence electron.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3ffc7bd elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"3ffc7bd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Copper: A Real World Example:<\/h3>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-72c1eee elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"72c1eee\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>At this point you may be wondering, what elements actually have just one valence electron. Well let&#8217;s look at the most commonly used metal to transfer electronic charges, copper. Copper is special because although it falls in the middle of the periodic table, its orbitals fill in an irregular pattern meaning we end up with just 1 electron in its 4th orbital. Because of this special case(which is due to the way electrons fill shells around the nucleus) copper has a uniquely low ionization energy. Along with that copper is also an abundant metal which is also malleable and can easily be manufactured in the real world. Let&#8217;s now see what these electrons look like in a Bohr diagram.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-598333d elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"598333d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/tikz.net\/files\/charged_particles-005.png\" title=\"\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bddd140 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"bddd140\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>When we talk about what materials are most often used in electrical wiring, the first and greatest answer is copper.
