Our Project
Our Project
For this Cosmic Chemistry Project we each split up the work for three different types of ways to show three different topics we had worked on this unit. We did an artistic part showing the evidence for the big bang theory, a historic aspect of jounral entries for alpha, beta, and gamma decay, lastly our group made a rap about nuclear fusion and fission. Each part of the project went into detail about each of these scientific topics. Personally I worked on the cosmic comic for the big bang theory. I added a few boxes for each type of evidence and tried relating each one to something more simple to gasp and understand.
Artistic Comic for Evidence of the Big Bang Theory
Artistic Comic for Evidence of the Big Bang Theory
Personally, I did the comic for the big band. We has split up the work evenly helping eachother and drawing the comic was my section of work. I drew 13 frames explaining the three different types of evidence for the big bang theory.
Major Concepts
Major Concepts
Isotopes
Isotopes
Atoms of the same element (same number of protons) that have different numbers of neutrons.
Half Life
Half Life
Half life is the time it takes for exactly one half of radioactive sample to decay.
Excited State
Excited State
Energy level of an electron that is higher and less stable than other levels
Ground State
Ground State
Energy level of an electron that is the lowest and most stable
Radio Active Decay
Radio Active Decay
Adioactive decay is the process by which an unstable atomic nucleus loses energy by radiation. Essentially the decomposition of a nucleus to form a different nucleus.
Gamma Decay
Gamma Decay
Gamma decay, type of radioactivity in which some unstable atomic nuclei dissipate excess energy by a spontaneous electromagnetic process
Big Bang Theory
Big Bang Theory
The Big Bang theory is the prevailing cosmological model explaining the existence of the observable universe from the earliest known periods through its subsequent large-scale evolution
Alpha Decay
Alpha Decay
Alpha decay or α-decay is a type of radioactive decay in which in which some unstable atomic nuclei dissipate excess energy by spontaneously ejecting/releasing an alpha particle.
Fission
Fission
Nuclear fission is a reaction in which the nucleus of an atom splits into two or more smaller nuclei. The fission process often produces gamma photons, and releases a very large amount of energy even by the energetic standards of radioactive decay.
Beta Decay
Beta Decay
A type of radioactive decay which simply emits electrons
Fussion
Fussion
A nuclear reaction in which atomic nuclei of low atomic number fuse to form a heavier nucleus with the release of energy.
Ion
Ion
Ion, any atom or group of atoms that bears one or more positive or negative electrical charges. Positively charged ions are called cations; negatively charged ions, anions.
