Over the year so far, we've been working on some of the major skills that are needed in order to collect careful data, get good measurements, and do good science.
From here one out we are going to get deeper into atoms, the periodic table and chemistry. Today we learned a bit about how CRAZY small the atom is and about how empty the atom is. 99.99999% of the atom is empty space. That means most of us are nothing but empty space! Here is the video we watched today about just how incredibly small and empty the atom is. It's rather mind-blowing.
For homework this week take a look at the atoms chapter that starts on page 171 in the enclosed .pdf.
Do questions 1 - 9 on page 178,
Best,
