Learning Objectives

At the end of this simulation, you will be able to:
  • Elaborate on the notion of an atom.
  • Describe the characteristics of the fundamental subatomic components: protons, neutrons, and electrons.
  • Employ nuclear symbol notation to infer the quantities of protons, neutrons, and electrons in both atoms and ions.
  • Define atomic number and mass number.
  • Define isotopes and ions.
  • Explain the relevance of atomic number and mass number in the context of isotopes.

How do virtual labs work?

Enhance students' involvement in science by immersing them in interactive learning scenarios. Create simulations for experiments, provide hands-on training in laboratory techniques, and convey theoretical concepts through captivating visual experiences to improve their overall long-term learning outcomes.

  • Access over 300 web-based simulations that are compatible with laptops, Chromebooks, tablets, and iPads, eliminating the need for software installation.
  • Incorporate a teacher dashboard for automated grading and monitoring of student progress.
  • Utilize embedded quizzes to assist students in mastering scientific content.
  • Comprehensive repository of educational materials, including learning resources, lab reports, videos, theory pages, graphics, and more.
