MATERIALS:

1. Small marbles or balls

2. Index cards or colored paper

3. Markers or colored pens

4. Scissors

5. Space or table

6. Optional: Colored tape

7. Optional: Flashlights with colored filters

PROCEDURE:

Today, we're going to dive into the world of atoms and explore how scientists thought they looked like in the past.

Remember Rutherford? He suggested that electrons move freely around the nucleus, like planets around the sun. Let's try to represent his model!

Rutherford's Model Demonstration:

1. Create the Nucleus:

Take a central object (representing the nucleus) and place it on the table. This is where the tiny marbles will gather.

2. Electron Arrangement:

Distribute small marbles (representing electrons) to each of you. Arrange these marbles freely around the nucleus. Imagine these electrons moving like planets in our solar system.

Bohr's Model Introduction:

Now, let's explore Bohr's model. Bohr proposed that electrons can only exist in specific orbits. Let's see how this is different!

1. Quantized Orbits:

Cut out index cards or colored paper to represent different energy levels (orbits). Label these cards with numbers to represent quantized orbits.

2. Arranging Orbits:

Arrange these energy level cards on the table, each card representing a specific orbit around the nucleus. Use colored tape or markers to mark specific distances for each orbit

Electron Arrangement:

Distribute small marbles (representing electrons) to each of you. Arrange these marbles on the fixed orbit/quantized energy levels.

GUIDE QUESTIONS:

1. How did you decide where to put the marbles around the middle thing (nucleus) in Rutherford's idea? What did you see about how the marbles are spread out?

2. Why might it be tricky if electrons can go anywhere in Rutherford's model? What kind of problems can you think of?

3. Now, we're using cards or colored paper for different paths in Bohr's model. Why are we doing this? How is Bohr's idea different from Rutherford's?

4. When you put marbles on both Rutherford's and Bohr's models, did you see a change? How does Bohr's way make things better compared to Rutherford's?

Atomic model

What is the shape of the atom? The atomic model is a way of explaining what an atom looks like. The atomic model has been transformed as follows.

When We didn't know much about the atom, we thought it would be a solid lump like a billiard ball. However, real atoms can be divide into electrons and atomic nuclei, and using a particle accelerator can also divide atomic nuclei.

About 200 years ago, an atom was imagined to be like a muffin with raisins. The raisins on the outside of a muffin can be compared to the electron. Positive charges within an atom are spread throughout the entire volume, and electrons were thought to oscillate around fixed points within a cation (muffin).

One hundred years ago, it was discovered by Rutherford that most of the atoms were empty.

After that, Niels Bohr presented a more refined atomic model. Bohr's atomic model is very close to the atomic model that can be seen these days. In Bohr's atomic model, electrons are in a given orbit. This model is also called a planetary model because electrons orbiting around an atomic nucleus resemble a planet orbiting the sun.

Currently, it is known that electrons around an atomic nucleus have the properties of matter and wave at the same time, and the position and speed of electrons cannot be accurately known at the same time and can only be grasped with statistical probability.

MATERIALS:

Index card

Pen

PROCEDURE:

On your index card, generate analogies or metaphors to illustrate the distinctions between Rutherford's and Bohr's atomic models. Craft comparisons that help convey the unique features of each model, aiding in a clearer understanding of the differences between the two concepts

EXAMPLE:

Analogy: Rutherford's atomic model is like a dance party where people move freely across the dance floor without any specific steps or patterns. In this model, electrons orbit the nucleus randomly, much like dancers enjoying the music without following a choreography. On the other hand, Bohr's atomic model is like a well-organized dance routine where dancers move in specific, quantized steps. Electrons in Bohr's model follow distinct orbits, akin to dancers following specific, structured movements. The key difference is that Rutherford's model allows for free movement, like a dance party, while Bohr's model introduces order and choreography, like a rehearsed dance routine. This analogy simplifies the contrast between the two models, emphasizing the randomness of Rutherford's orbits and the structured nature of Bohr's quantized orbits.
