Picture talk:

1. Which characteristics of the twins are given at the illustration?

2. Do you think they are really the same?

B. Exploration
The students will perform the activity below.
Marble Isotope

Students will be given bags with different numbers of red marbles representing protons,
blue marbles representing neutrons and yellow marbles representing electrons. They will
build the nucleus for each of the atoms and then determine the element (based on
number of “protons”) and the atomic mass of the atom (protons + neutrons). They will
refer to the periodic table of elements in order to identify the element. Students will
record their information in the data table.

C. Explanation
Guide questions:
1. How do you determine the number of protons given the atomic mass and atomic number
of element?
2. Differentiate the number of protons and the number of electrons of each element.
3. Cobalt-60 is used as radiation therapy for cancer. How many protons and neutrons does
cobalt-60 have?
4. How many isotopes did you find?
a. How are they the same?
b. How are they different?
5. Iodine-131 is used to detect thyroid problems. How is iodine-131 the same as iodine-126?
6. How is iodine-131 different from iodine-126?

D. Elaboration
Consider the following atoms:

A B C D E F

No. of 6 6 6 7 8 7
electrons
No. of 6 7 8 7 6 8
neutrons
No. of 6 6 6 7 8 7
protons

Answer the following questions:

1. Which atoms have the same atomic mass?
2. For which atom (s) is the atomic number 7?
3. Which atom (s) are isotopes?

The atomic number or the nuclear charge (proton) is the basis of the atom’s
individuality. Since an atom is neutral, the number of protons equals the number of
electrons. The mass of an atom is concentrated in the nucleus. The mass number is
equal to the sum of the protons and neutrons. Atoms having the same of protons but
different numbers of neutrons are referred as isotopes.

 Neon, a gaseous and inert element found in the atmosphere, has three naturally
occurring isotopes. Their atomic masses Ne-20 (90.60%), Ne-21 (0.26%), and Ne-22
(9.20%) are 19.9924 amu, 20.9938 amu, and 21.9914 amu, respectively. The percent
abundances for each isotope are given in parentheses. Calculate the average atomic
mass of Neon.

Directions: Use the Apartment House Analogy to present the application of the three rules in
filling electron orbitals. Imagine you are the landlord of a very strange of a very strange
apartment building. Your job is to fill the apartments in the building in the most efficient way
possible. You are required by the owner of the building to fill the rooms in a certain way. Use
