Topics of the video: 0:11 Which gases are noble gases? 0:36 Where can I find noble gases? 1:41 Why are the noble gases called "noble"? 2:27 Atomic construction - according to Bohr's shell model + noble gas configuration and octet rule 3:57 How do other atoms - other elements - achieve the noble gas

08 The Noble Gas Configuration

The noble gas configuration is a particularly stable electron configuration. The driving force for many chemical phenomena is this state. It should be remembered again that the nucleus is not altered during chemical reactions. Original: "Wolfgang Dukorn" Original: German. All translations in this

How Do You Split An Atom?

There are certain scientific concepts out that that most people have heard of, but don’t quite know what it implies. While you’ve doubtlessly heard mention of splitting an atom in school or films, you may have missed out on how exactly this can be done. So let’s explore the wonderful world of nuclea

Atoms: The Space Between

This video segment adapted from A Science Odyssey uses models, vivid descriptions, and analogies to explain the structural integrity of matter at the atomic level. You wouldn't know it by looking at it, but the atoms that make up a solid piece of iron contain more space than stuff. How is it then th

08 The Atomic Shell

In this screnncast, Bohr's atomic model is compared with the energy stage model. Using the aluminum atom as an example, the different energy levels are explained and how they are to be filled with electrons are described. Original: "Wolfgang Dukorn" Original: German. All translations in this video
