Atomic Structure

W - WORSHIP (IFL) & WARM UP

Is God designed the universe?

GOD IS THE GREAT DESIGNER

In Genesis chapter 1 we read about God, the Creator, creating the heavens, creating the earth, creating all kinds of living creatures and
lastly, creating male and female.

God's design and plan didn't stop there. In Matthew chapter 1, and Luke the first two chapters, we read of God sending an angel to Mary and
telling her she will conceive and give birth to a son and to call His name JESUS....for He will be the Savior of the world - saving people from
their sins.

What God Has Designed:

Salvation
God has designed a pathway of forgiveness and eternal life, which is salvation through Jesus Christ - Salvation that is freely given to us and not
earned. It is God's design that we would have a Savior...Jesus....

Peace
Along with Salvation, God has designed a pathway of peace. We have:

Peace with God. Personal peace. We are no longer fighting against God because now we have a right relationship with Him.
Peace of God. This kind of peace will do three things:
Guard your heart.
Guard your mind and
Keep, watch over and protect our heart and our mind when we put our life life into His hands.
This peace is available to us on a daily basis when we put our life and our circumstances in His hands. Philippians 4:7 says: and the peace of
God, which surpasses (goes beyond the limit), of all understanding (all of our capacity to understand), will guard your hearts and your minds in
Christ Jesus.

It is God's design for us to have peace, and this peace is freely given to those who believe.

Hope
God has designed for us to also have hope. Webster's dictionary defines Hope as "a feeling that what is wanted will happen, a desire
accompanied by anticipation or expectation." I think all of us at sometime have had this level of hope.

I think a Christian definition of this might be: an eager anticipation of God's promises being fulfilled - knowing we are not going to be stuck in this
forever.

Psalm 42:11 David was encouraging himself to hope: "why are you cast down, O my soul? and why are you disquieted within me? Hope in God;
for I shall yet praise Him, the help of my countenance and my God." I was hanging onto these verses - knowing that I was going to see the other
side of this....having great Hope!

I was eagerly anticipating God bringing a positive outcome. I had a knowing that I was not going to be stuck in this forever....that I would see
God's promise fulfilled.

Maybe you are waiting or hoping in God that He will bring some good, some direction, some conclusions, some strength or maybe you are
waiting and anticipating for a positive outcome. I want to encourage you to remember the words of David and say "For I hope in You, O Lord,
You will answer, O Lord my God." I'm not going to be stuck in this forever.

God has given us Hope. Hope in this life and Hope of eternal life to come.

Love
Love has been designed for us by our great and excellent designer. He gives us His Love.
God's character is Love. He cannot be anything else. He cannot go against who He is. I John 4:16 clearly states that God is Love. And because
of that Love, Hebrews 13:5 says "I will never under any condition or circumstance desert you, nor will I ever at any time forsake you."
 
That is God's promise. We can depend on it.
God also has given us the need to love and be loved.
  
I see God responding that way to us when we cry out for love. He has the greatest capacity to love because that's who He is. People will fail
and disappoint us, but God's love will never fail.
 
He has given us Salvation, Hope, Peace and Love.
 
Whatever God designs, it won't fade, fray, shrink or fall apart because what He makes is made to last
forever____________________________________________________________________________________

PRELIMINARIES

i. Title: Q 3 M 1- Matter: Atomic Structure

ii. Module Overview

Scientists have a wide-ranging pool of queries in their minds, which needs answers to satisfy their thoughts. Some
questions and ideas that swim in that pool include the origin of every matter that we encounter in our everyday activities,
how each matter interrelates to each other, the components of each matter, and even the existence of the most minuscule
substance which is known as atom that is invisible to our naked eye.

This module provides information with the essential information of what an atom is, the subatomic particles, and its
importance in the study of matter.

iii. Learning competencies

By the end of the module, you are expected to:
1. determine the number of protons, neutrons, and electrons in a particular atom.

iv. Instructional materials(APA)

LESSON 1: Atomic Models and Theories

I. INTRODUCTION
M- Mobilize
A. EXPLORE

Specific Learning Outcomes:

1. I can trace the conception of the atom in the past and how it evolved into the present view of atom;
2. I can describe the different atomic theories and models
3. I can explain the modern view of the atom;
2. I can determine the number of protons, neutrons of the isotopes.

A.1-MOTIVATION

Let’’s begin this lesson by gathering your ideas about the topic.

ACTIVITY 1: : Loop
Let us ponder about the way the Greeks thought about what makes up everything. Hold a piece of chalk. Look
closely at it. Get a hard object that you can use to crush it. Now examine what happened to the chalk.
Compare its initial and final appearance.
1. If you crush the chalk further, what do you think will happen?
2. If you keep on breaking it, what will you get in the end?

B. FIRM-UP

ACTIVITY 3: Reading
A. Read
Scientists have collected evidence that atoms are composed of three types of particles, namely the protons,
electrons, and neutrons. These components of the atom are collectively referred to as subatomic particles. The
nucleus of the atom contains protons and neutrons. The outer regions of the atom holds the electrons.

Atoms are electrical in nature. They contain particles with positive and negative charges. The proton carries a
positive charge (+1). The electron carries a negative charge (-1). Atoms in their most stable state are neutral
with an equal number of protons and electrons. For example, if an atom has 5 electrons, then it also has 5
protons. The other particle in an atom is neutron, which does not carry any charge or is neutral.

The properties of the three subatomic particles are summarized in the table below.

Protons and neutrons have approximately the same masses. Both subatomic particles are found in the
nucleus. On the other hand, electrons are found outside the nucleus and are the smallest subatomic particles.
The number of protons determines the atom's identity, and the number of electrons determines its electrical
charge. The atomic number tells the number of protons in one atom of an element. It also tells the number of
electrons in a neutral atom of the element. The mass number is the sum of the total number of protons and
neutrons in the nucleus of the atom. Electrons do not contribute much to an element's overall atomic mass
because they are considered nearly massless in comparison to the masses of protons and neutrons.

The number of neutrons can vary to produce isotopes, which are atoms of the same element having the same
atomic number but different mass numbers.

Page 3 of 5, Science 8 Q3 M2
The number of electrons can also be different in atoms of the same element, thus producing ions (charged
atoms). For instance, Iron (Fe) can exist in its neutral state or in the +2 and +3 ionic states.
