ATOM BALLS
National Standard: B1
“...There are more than 100 known elements that combine in a multitide of ways to produce (various) compounds ...” 1
Suggested Use
All matter is made of atoms bonded together. If each bump on the Atom Ball represents an atom, challenge students to find out what a grouping like this might represent (a molecule). Use the Internet to find pictures of various molecules (Try Googles “Images”). Discuss simple molecular combinations like water and air.
