 * Atom, Compounds, Molecule Research Assignment **
 * **View** Table of Elements
 * **Read** Atoms and Elements (BBC)
 * **Read** about atoms and molecules on Fact Monster
 * On your Atom wiki page include **
 * 1) Crete a wiki page named **Atom Code Name.**
 * 2) On your page, provide the definitions of the following terms in your own words:
 * atom - the most basic piece of matter that cannot be cut to a smaller state
 * proton - a positive charge
 * neutron - a neutral charge
 * electron - negative charge
 * nucleus -
 * atomic number - the number that is associated with the element to be able to find on the periodic table
 * atomic weight - the average weight of an element
 * atomic symbol.- the symbol that is used to represent an element
 * 1) You will be assigned an atom to **research**. Go to **Fact Monster** Find the atomic number, atomic weigh and symbol of the atom. Find what atoms it combines with to form compounds. Describe the properties of the atom. Describe the properties of a compound that the atom might form.
 * Krypton
 * Atomic number - 36
 * Atomic weight - 83.798
 * Symbol - Kr
 * 1) Find the electronic configuration of the atom. (example: electronic configuration for copper is 2 · 8 · 18 · 1)
 * 2) Using the information from Fact Monster, **draw** a picture of the atom using Tux Paint to show the number and location of the protons, neutrons and electrons. Use a P to mark the location of the Protons. Label the electrons. Write the name of the atom and the atomic symbol. Enter the atomic number.**Save** this picture in TuxPaint. Then **upload** the picture to your Atom wiki page.


 * Wiki Page Summary ** - Each wiki page should have the vocabulary and definitions, the picture of the atom that you created, a summary from Ghosts and Atoms.
