5716 Atom model

This model helps the students to understand the atom, because it permits them to create different atoms using coloured spheres which represent the protons, the neutrons and the electrons. The holes on the plate are ordered according to the different energetic levels of the orbit. In this way it is possible to understand the chemical links, the isotopes, the emission spectra and other matters concerning the atom. Size: 475×475 mm.
