Sun parts review Label the parts of the sun On the back in your own words what does each part do? Today= How is the energy made intro to chem
The Sun • A star • Provides light and heat to Earth • Made of hydrogen and helium • About 4.6 billion years old
Parts reviewed • When you see an image of the sun, you are seeing the photosphere • The sun’s corona, which looks like a halo, can usually be seen only during a solar eclipse • The middle layer of the sun’s atmosphere is the chromosphere • Sunspots are darker areas of gas on the sun that are cooler than the surrounding gases
Chemistry Background Information: Nucleus: has neutrons and protons Electrons surround • An atom is the smallest particle of an element • Atoms have a core, or nucleus, containing neutrons (no charge) and protons (+ charge) • Electrons (- charge) surround the nucleus
Atoms • Atoms can have a positive, negative, or neutral charge • Atoms can change their charge by gaining or losing electrons • When an atom gains an electron, it becomes a negative ion (an ion is an atom with an unequal amount of protons and neutrons) • http://player.discoveryeducation.com/index.cfm?guidAssetId=265D5BAB-BE5C-4A58-8346-EEA0D951E617&blnFromSearch=1&productcode=US
The Periodic Table: • Lists all of the elements • The atomic number is the same number of protons in the nucleus of an atom
What causes the sun to produce energy? • Nuclear fusion- the combination of the nuclei of small atoms to form a larger nucleus; releases energy • Atoms are very active and crash into each other • The nuclei become joined, releasing huge amounts of energy • Nuclear fusion occurs in the core, or center, of the sun • http://app.discoveryeducation.com/search?Ntt=nuclear+fusion
