1
Inside an Atom What do you find?
2
The world is made up of how many single substances?
92
3
Who knows what those 92 substances are called?
What… only 92 you say! Who knows what those 92 substances are called?
4
That’s right! Elements What is an element?
Pure substance that is made up of only one atom.
5
What is an atom? the smallest component or part of an element having the chemical and physical properties of that element
6
What is the center of the atom called?
The core of every atom is called the nucleus.
7
What are the two parts of the nucleus?
Protons: Positively charged particles found inside of the atom’s nucleus. Neutrons: Carry no charge; Found in the nucleus.
9
Negatively charged particles. Usually the same number as protons.
What is an electron? Outside of the nucleus Negatively charged particles. Usually the same number as protons.
11
The parts of an atom The protons, neutrons, and electrons are called subatomic particles, Subatomic means smaller parts that make up an atom.
12
How to read the Periodic Table
Atomic Number Element Symbol Atomic Mass Element Name
13
What does the atomic number mean?
Atomic number tells you how many protons are in the nucleus. If the atomic number of oxygen is 8, how many protons are there? 8 Copper has 29 protons. What is its atomic number? 29

Chorus They are so small. (snap, snap) They’re round like ball. They make up the air. They’re everywhere. Can’t see them at all.
16
Verse 1 They’re tiny and they’re teeny, Much smaller than a beany,
Atoms Family Song Verse 1 They’re tiny and they’re teeny, Much smaller than a beany, They never can be seeny, The Atoms Family.
17
Chorus They are so small. (snap, snap) They’re round like ball. They make up the air. They’re everywhere. Can’t see them at all.

2nd Verse: Together they make gases, and liquid like molasses,
And all the solid masses, The Atoms Family Chorus

Where protons hang around; Electrons they surround The Atoms Family.
3rd Verse Neutrons can be found, Where protons hang around; Electrons they surround The Atoms Family. (Chorus)
22
Who are the residents of Matterville?
23
How do you find the following information about an element?
Number of protons Equal to the atomic number
24
How do you find the following information about an element?
Number of electrons Equal to the atomic number
25
Why are protons and electrons the same number?
All things in nature must balance. There must be positive and negative charges to equal zero. If there are more protons are added, then that is no longer the same element.
26
Why are protons and electrons the same number?
If there are protons taken away, it is not the same element. All elements have an exact number of protons. That is how they are arranged by atomic number.
27
How do you find the number of neutrons?
