Elements and Atoms

Elements and Atoms
Josh Bliss

There are a lot of amazing things that have to do with elements and atoms. One thing is if you heat the element of gold too much, it actually will melt. If you burn the element of carbon, it will turn into this form of gas. There are 118 different elements that we know of. Atoms are in every element, and if you get deep you can find atoms. If you break those atoms you would lose the element you started with. Most living things are made out of the element carbon. There are about 1 million carbon atoms in the width of the average person's hair. Protons are what make an element an element. Oxygen has eight protons, hydration has one, Helium has two, Carbon has six, nitrogen has seven, Florin has nine, and so on. This is important because this is what everything is. Without elements and atoms there would be nothing at all except God. As you can see there are many amazing things about elements and atom.

  1. I think it's interesting how there are lots of elements. I wonder what effects humans about the element of gold that makes us think it's valuable...

    1. What makes gold valuable is how rare it is. Another factor is how dense the gold is.
