Part 2
Go to http://ippex.pppl.gov/interactive/matter/elements.html
and answer the following questions as you watch the tutorial.
1. Atoms
with a given number of ________________ are called ______________________.
2. Scientists
have discovered more than ___________ different elements.
3. If
we remove one proton from Lithium, it becomes _______________________.
4. If
we change the number of neutrons found in an element, it is called an
___________________.
5. The
______________ __________________ arranges elements according to the number of
____________ and the properties of the elements.
6. Elements

Continue
using the interactive to answer the following questions about molecules.

Now go to http://education.jlab.org/elementmath/index.html and play the Element Math Game. Your settings should be 10 questions, tested
on protons, neutrons, and electrons, and do not round the mass.
