====== Atoms Demonstrations ===== **See also: **[[categories:elements|Elements and Periodic Table]], [[categories:nuclear_physics|Nuclear Physics]]\\ \\ Atoms are the basic units of matter that still retain the properties of an element. This category focuses on the structure of atoms, the particles they contain, and how they combine to form more complex substances. Learning about atoms helps explain the composition of matter and underpins much of modern science.\\ ---- struct table ---- schema: demo cols: page, materials, difficulty, safety, summary header: "Demonstration", "Materials", "Difficulty", "Safety", "Summary" filter: categories~Atoms filter: page~demonstrations:% sort: title csv: 0 ---- **Materials**\\ ★☆☆ Easy to get from supermarket or hardware store\\ ★★☆ Available in most school laboratories or specialist stores\\ ★★★ Requires materials not commonly found in school laboratories\\ **Difficulty**\\ ★☆☆ Can be easily done by most teenagers\\ ★★☆ Available in most school laboratories or specialist stores\\ ★★★ Requires a more experienced teacher\\ **Safety**\\ ★☆☆ Minimal safety procedures required\\ ★★☆ Some safety precautions required to perform safely\\ ★★★ Only to be attempted with adequate safety procedures and trained staff\\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\
