Previous Knowledge: engage students in a discussion about fire, hazards, and

extinguishers in the work environment.

Contents:
The Electron Theory consists of the following concepts:
1.      All matter is made up of tiny, invisible particles called atoms.
2.      The atom is composed of negatively charged particles called electrons (-), positively
charged particles called protons (+), and neutrally charged particles called neutrons.
3.              Proton and neutron have the same mass and are about 1,830 times as heavy as
electron.

4.              Every proton carries a unit charge of positive electricity; every electron carries a unit
charge of negative electricity.

5.              The atom of any element contains exactly the same number of protons and electrons,
thus the atom is said to be electrically neutral.

6.              The dense central portion of the atom — the nucleus, is made up of all the protons and
the neutrons. Thus, the positive charge of the atom is concentrated in the nucleus.
7.              Electron revolves around the nucleus in one or more shells or rings at various dis-
tances.

8.              The entire chemical characteristics of an atom depends largely upon the number of
electrons that it has and how these electrons are arranged.

An ion is an atom or molecule in which the total number of electrons is not equal to the total
number of protons, giving it a net positive or negative electrical charge.

Electric current: movement of free electrons in a unify direction.

Electrical conductor: a). carry electric current b.) the force of attraction between the electron
an nucleus is very weak. C.) electrons flow freely d.) Examples of conductors are silver,
copper, and aluminum. However, copper is the most common conductor.

Electrical insulator: a.) the force of attraction between the electron an nucleus is very strong.
b.) electrons do not flow freely. C. examples of insulators are: rubber, plastic, wood, and paper.

Electric Charge: an atom can loose and Gain and gain an electron, but an atom cannot loose or
gain a proton. If an atom should lose an electron it would become positively charge, but if an
atom should gain an electron it would become negatively charge.

Therefore: positive charge- shortage of electrons and negative charge is excess amount of
electrons.

Electric field: the force of attraction causes electrons to move from the point of excess to the
point of shortage

Electro-motive force (e.m.f): a.) electric pressure due to electric field. B.) It is the difference
of potential between conductor ends. Also, called voltage

Electron flow: electron flow because of the potential difference between conductors ends.

Resistance: opposition to the flow of electric current

Application: students will be instructed to complete the activity below

1. Give four (4) examples materials with low resistance to electric current
2. Give four (4) examples material with high resistance to electric current
3. How do electrons flow?

Summary:

The main points about electron theory will be re- stated verbally by the teacher.

Student’s Evaluation: The lesson will be evaluated by the questions that are
asked during the summary of the lesson, and the class activity.
