1 Subatomic Physics Chapter Opener Tapping Prior Knowledge, TE Review previously learned concepts and check for preconceptions about the chapter content. Visual Concepts CD-ROM This CD-ROM consists of multimedia presentations of core physics concepts. (BASIC) SECTION 1 The Nucleus PACING Regular Schedule: with lab(s): N/A days without lab(s): 1 days Block Schedule: with lab(s): N/A days without lab(s): 0.5 days STATE OBJECTIVES III. ENERGY C. NUCLEAR OBJECTIVES 1. Identify the properties of the nucleus of an atom. 2. Explain why some nuclei are unstable. 3. Calculate the binding energy of various nuclei. NATIONAL SCIENCE EDUCATION STANDARDS UCP 1: Systems, order, and organization UCP 2: Evidence, models, and explanation UCP 3: Change, consistency, and measurements UCP 4: Evolution and equilibrium HNS 1: Science as a human endeavor HNS 3: History of science PS1a: Matter is made of minute particles called atoms, and atoms are composed of even smaller components. These components have measurable properties, such as mass and electrical charge. Each atom has a positively charged nucleus surrounded by negatively charged electrons. The electric force between the nucleus and electrons holds the atoms together. PS1b: The atom's nucleus is composed of protons and neutrons, which are much more

2 massive than electrons. When an element has atoms that differ in the number of neutrons, these atoms are called different isotopes of the element. PS1c The nuclear forces that hold the nucleus of an atom together, at nuclear distances, are usually stronger than the electric forces that would make it fly apart. Nuclear reactions convert a fraction of the mass of interacting particles into energy, and they can release much greater amounts of energy than atomic interactions. Fission is the splitting of a large nucleus into smaller pieces. Fusion is the joining of two nuclei at extremely high temperature and pressure, and is the process responsible for the energy of the sun and other stars. FOCUS (5 MINUTES) Overview Review the objectives listed in the Student Edition.

Nuclear reactions convert a fraction of the mass of interacting particles into energy, and they can release much greater amounts of energy than atomic interactions. Fission is the splitting of a large nucleus into smaller pieces. Fusion is the joining of two nuclei at extremely high temperature and pressure, and is the process responsible for the energy of the sun and other stars.

5 PS1d: Radioactive isotopes are unstable and undergo spontaneous nuclear reactions, emitting particles and/or wavelike radiation. The decay of any one nucleus cannot be predicted, but a large group of identical nuclei decay at a predictable rate. This predictability can be used to estimate the age of materials that contain radioactive isotopes. FOCUS (5 MINUTES) Overview Review the objectives listed in the Student Edition.
