S&EP - SP7: Engaging in argument from evidence
I used evidence to defend my explanation. I answered and filled out a worksheet packet about different types of atoms and elements providing the video that was provided to my classmates and I about atoms and an online simulation about different types of atoms as evidence. I formulated evidence based on solid data when I stated that the Carbon atom is made up of six protons, six neutrons, and six electrons using the online simulation as evidence. I examined my own understanding in light of the evidence. I used to think that the atomic mass of an atom was the amount of all of the subatomic particles present in the specific atom added together, but because of using and testing out the online simulation for the worksheet packet, now I think that the atomic mass of an atom is just the added number of protons and number of neutrons that are in the specific type of atom. However not the number of electrons. I collaborated with my peers in searching for the best explanation. I did some research on atoms, their function, what they are made up of, and different types of atoms which I discussed with my table group. Together we figured out the formation of subatomic particles of the atom and a couple of different types of atoms/elements.
XCC: Patterns
The pattern that is present in atoms is the formation of the subatomic particles of the atom. These subatomic particles include the protons, neutrons, and electrons that are apart of the atom. In every type of atom, the protons and neutrons always take place inside the nucleus of the atom or the center of the atom. The protons and neutrons are usually bonded together and make up the nucleus of the atom. The electrons of the atom float outside the nucleus and orb around it. In each and every type of atom, the protons, neutrons, and electrons stay in this orderly fashion. However, in different types of atoms, there are different amounts of subatomic particles.
