The objective of this homework assignment is to expand your knowledge of the atom beyond the models presented in General Chemistry 1. To do this you will need to do a little research. Your task is to learn more about the CERN Large Hardon Collider and the research into sub-atomic particles. With that information, you need to teach one of your assigned classmates about one aspect of this research that you find more fascinating. Maybe you are intrigued about the production of man-made elements, or maybe you are intrigued about sub-atomic particles like quarks and the Higgs boson. Take your pick!
Can someone please help!!
1. Marie Curie was a Polish scientist that specialized in chemistry and physics. She wanted to understand how X-rays worked and noticed in her studies that the element, Uranium, gave off rays that could be measured but did not know what the rays were. She assumed that the rays came from the uranium itself instead of through different molecules interacting with each other. To study the rays, she used an instrument, called an electrometer, that studied the electricity that the rays passed through the air. Through this she was able to discover that the more uranium atoms there were in a compound, the stronger the rays that came off of it. She used this discovery to test other minerals that emitted more rays than Uranium, and discovered the elements Thorium, Polonium and Radium. Through her discoveries of these elements, scientists were able to find the structure of the atom and even how the rays can be used to fight cancer. What was Marie Curie’s observation?
