The point of the project was to build a model of an atom to show how protons and neutrons are placed around the atom. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LhveTGblGHY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_lNF3_30lUE
First, we stuck all the beads together with blue tack then put them on the string then put the rings on the string then stuck the atom sign on the string as well.
The Atomic number was 10 and the mass number was 10 this means the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom. I have drawn the electrons the way I have because you can only put 3 in the inside circle and 8 in the next one. It worked well but next time I would use more blue tack to stick the inside atoms together. Neon won’t lose or gain electrons because it’s already complete.
