Atomic Structure and Radioactivity Summary

Yet another unit has flown by... time goes by so fast the older you get! Anyways, I thought it would be nice to conclude this unit by reflecting on what i learned. 

Atomic theory- I learned the roots, Dalton's Postulates, Thomson and Rutherford's models, and how ideas of atomic structure have evolved over time.








Radioactivity- I learned about Half-Lives, and the three types of radioactive decay: alpha, beta, and gamma, and how each one effects an element.

Here are some helpful links i found this

 unit over these topics.
