Product Details
Atom model, vibrating
The vibrating atom model illustrates the movement of molecules and shows that they are only completely static at absolute zero (0 K).
Description
The model consists of interconnected spheres connected by flexible springs, which are set in motion by a light push. It is delivered unassembled in size 20 × 20 × 20 cm and is intended as a visual and tactile teaching model that supports the understanding of the thermal movements of atoms and molecules.
Use of the product
The model is used in physics and chemistry to illustrate the kinetic molecular model and the concept of temperature. Students can observe how the vibrations symbolize particle motion and how the kinetic energy increases with increasing temperature. The model is particularly useful for introducing states of matter, melting and evaporation, where it makes abstract concepts concrete and understandable.
