Naming Ions
Lesson Outline
In today's class, Andrew worked on an activity that gave him a series of names of ions and it was his job to name the ion symbol, ion name, and ion formula for each. The activity also asked him some questions about charges, cations and anions.

nuclear fission
Lesson Outline
Define fission and nuclear fission
Discuss the instability of the nucleus due to neutron/proton ratio
Outline how the unstable uranium atom becomes a more unstable uranium isotope which will undergo nuclear fission.
Show the products formed by the fission along with the release of energy and 3 neutrons/atom.
From a diagram, show how each released neutron will be absorbed by a uranium nuclei and the fission expands, with the release of tremendous energy.
Label this as a chain reaction, uncontrolled.
