1. What does C12H22O11 stands for, and what is it?
2. What do you get if you mix a strip of zinc foil and dilute hydrochloric acid?
3. List the first ten elements of the Periodic Table.
Confusing, and for those who don't know anything about chemistry, doesn't make sense at all, eh? Well, you're lucky to have Marshall (me) as your part time chemistry guide !
Chemistry is a subject about atoms, chemical relationships, chemical reactions and all the other things that might be nonsense to you.
The first thing that you all have to know about chemistry is about the structure of an atom. Atoms are so small that about 10 to the power of 18 carbon atoms in the full stop at the end of the sentence. There a three types of subatomic particle (look in a scientific dictionary):
- Protons (positive charge) - found inside the nucleus.
- Neutrons (neutral) - found inside the nucleus.
- Electrons (negative charge) - arranged in energy levels around the nucleus.
All atoms contain these particles - except the lightest atom, hydrogen, which contains no neutrons.
That is all I'm writing today. Thank you for reading this blog message.
1)sugar (you said it on the 'super comma' post.) I don't know what it stands for though!
ReplyDelete2)dunno
3)dunno
excellent work marshall! did yo uuse a website to ge tyou rinfo? if so, say what it was and list the url
ReplyDeletei find the periodic table abbreviations for each element very cool. i like "fe" for iron.
lets learn them in class...
thank you Mr Woody! :-)) i got my idea from my trusty old NCEA lvl 1chemistry book. the whole post is in my own words, edited by a bit of creativity. studying chemistry in class will be SO COOL!!
ReplyDeleteYou are going to be hard pushed for top scientist this year, because I will be your top compeditor! My father is a chemistry teacher, and can give our loooong and boring lectures, but he does give out loooongs nd interesting lectures too. For instance - what are chromazones?
ReplyDeleteAre you doing the science Australasian test this year?
um... er... i think chromosoms- no, wait... kromasone... that chromosomething is in biology, not chemistry. and... yeah - i will do the australasian test this year, plus i got a distinction last year.
ReplyDeletei can't remembe 1 or 2 but three is...hydrogen hellium lithiem beralium boron carbon nitrogen oxygen flourine neon sodium magnesium alluminum silicon phosphuros sulfur,chlorine, argon
ReplyDelete12 carbon 22oxygen and 11hydrogen owe i can't remember the letters or numbers. by the way i was in mrwoodys class last year.
ReplyDeletemiss candy, that is absoulutly correct! there has been a few spelling errors, but never mind, 100%!
ReplyDeleteCRAZY for my brain!
ReplyDeleteBut chemistry is cool!
Coke and Mentos!
WARNING!
Don't have them together!
i found this on the internet,it's info on how the periodic table of elements developed:
ReplyDeletehttp://www.wou.edu/las/physci/ch412/perhist.htm
i'm pretty sure the first 36 elements on the periodic table are:
1.hydrogen
2.helium
3.lithium
4.beryllium
5.boron
6.carbon
7.nitrogen
8.oxygen
9.fluorine
10.neon
11.sodium
12.magnesium
13.aluminum
14.silicon
15.phosphorus
16.sulfur
17.chlorine
18.argon
19.potassium
20.calcium
21.scandium
22.titanium
23.vanadium
24.chromium
25.manganese
26.iron
27.cobalt
28.nickel
29.copper
30.zinc
31.gallium
32.germanium
33.arsenic
34.selenium
35.bromine
36.krypton

thanks
bye
:-)
p.s please read my kakepuku story on http://kakepukukatastrophe.blogspot.com
exellent work, kitty milo! sorry i didn't reply the last few days. my dad had to disconnect the computer!
ReplyDeleteP.S i went to the website you wrote. it has the discriptions of the elements, very cool!
