Hydrogen Atom 3d Model Project. One ball may be a different color to represent the one electron orbiting the hydrogen atom s nucleus. Hydrogen atom picture category.
Cut out a small a medium. One of these atoms can be represented in a model for a physics or science class to help visualize atomic structure. An atom model project is a great way to introduce students from elementary school through high school to the 3d concept of the atom and how the protons and neutrons in the nucleus relate geometrically and in terms of size to the electrons spaced at relatively vast distances from the nucleus.
Glue both colored craft balls into a ball alternating between the protons and neutrons as you glue this will resemble the nucleus 1 x research sourcestep 3 cut out the cardstock.

As a class models of the hydrogen atom are explored using an online java applet in this activity. Step 1 prepare your materials.
