With the help of this online educational platform students can build and explore complex atomic structures. There are tools for running accurate simulations as well.
Build An Atom
Build An Atom is a Windows web service that is designed to help educators create physics lessons related to atomic constructs. Like Practice Anatomy Lab, it includes a large library of lessons, tests and other educational materials. Moreover, an option to view detailed information about different particles.
Model construction
You can insert protons, neutrons and electrons into the workspace to craft various types of atoms. Real time feedback is helpful for better understanding how the subatomic elements affect important particle properties such as:
- Identity;
- Charge;
- Stability.
It is possible to predict atomic mass changes after the addition or subtraction of protons. This functionality is intended for validating the results of scientific experiments.
Educational materials
There is a massive collection of tutorials and guides that provide step by step instructions for atom building. Users are able to adjust the default difficulty level, catering to various age groups and knowledge levels. Additionally, information panels with detailed descriptions of specific isotopes and ions are provided.
Features
- free to download and use;
- empowers students and teachers to simulate intricate atomic constructs;
- provides accurate feedback on relevant particle parameters in real time;
- there is a large selection of tests, quizzes and other educational materials;
- compatible with all modern versions of Windows.
