Neon Research Paper

297 Words2 Pages

Neon
My element is neon. It glows very bright and the atomic symbol is Ne. the atomic mass is 20.180. Neon is used for many things like signs and lights under cars. Neon was discovered in 1898. Sir William Ramsay and Morris Travers discovered neon. Neon is a noble gas and a non-metal. Its melting point is –248.57 oC
Electrons 10
Protons 10
Electron shells 2

The beads are for the electron and atom and the orange and green is protons the nucleus is a white ball!
When excited neon enters a plasma state and glows red. Neon is the tenth element of the periodic table and the second of the noble gases. The element is not reactive because of its electron composition. Where can you find neon?

    4.) I noticed that there is a relationship between the ionic radius and the atomic number of the representative elements in Group 1A. The higher the atomic number, the bigger the ionic radius is. So, while hydrogen has an atomic number of 1 and Francium has an atomic number of 87, it is safe to assume that FR has a higher ionic radius. This is true; the ionic radius for Hydrogen is 0.012, and for Francium, it is 0.194.

    A nucleus of an atom is accompanied by several electron shells that orbits around it. Each shell is only allowed a certain number of electrons. The first layer can hold 2, the second layer can hold 8, and the third layer can hold 18 electrons. All atoms prefer a full outer shell, however only noble gases hold them. This causes atoms to either give up or gain electrons from other atoms they encounter to have a full outer shell.

    New elements continue to be added to the periodic table as science knowledge increases. In January of 2016, a news article reported elements with atomic numbers 113, 115, 117 and 118 as approved by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry. These elements completed the seventh row of the periodic table. Isdell shows the concept that chemistry continues to expand when Julie names an element in the Land of Science that did not previously exist, Wendelium with the atomic symbol Wd (Isdell, 442).

The band is across the field, standing a block, every member leaning forward, forming the same angle towards the ground. We are lined up from the 35 yard line to the 45, lying on the wet grass as if we are asleep. We are perfectly still, then suddenly we rise, kicking our legs in unison.

    People thought that the north star was the brightest star in the universe. When we had slavery the slaves would follow the north star which was quite noticeable, considering people thought it was the brightest. Although, people may have gotten the North Star confused with other stars, people still believed it was the brightest. People believed that the north star was the brightest star because they got it confused with the dog star, (Alpha Canis Majoris). Stars have different magnitudes, so if the north star had a magnitude of below -1 it would be brightest then a star with a magnitude of above 0.

    “In 1775, more than a million pounds of indigo was exported from South Carolina to England” (Indigo’s Political, Economic, Cultural History 1). This massive amount of dye being traded was due to many factors that made it nearly the perfect trade commodity. The process of indigo dye being made by slaves in South Carolina in the 1700s is shown very well in the book Someone Knows My Name by Lawrence Hill. The production of this indigo dye has an extensive history of being extremely arduous to produce naturally, but results in a compact substance that will last a long period of time and be very valuable.

    A dye is a coloured substance that has an affinity, a bond with a physical surface, to the substrate to which it is being applied. Dyes are usually soluble in water. Dyes are used to change the perceived colour of an object. Dyes consist of 2 main parts: chromohore and auxochrome. Before 1856, all dyes were obtained from natural resources.
