- Chemistry is the science of materials, their properties, and how they react with each other and all materials are made of atoms
- Many people think of chemistry as complicated and hard to grasp, but new technology now enables us to take this innovative approach to teaching chemistry, making it more tangible and instinctive than ever before
- Atoms do have observable behaviors and tend to be more stable, or happy, when they have certain numbers of electrons whizzing around their cores
- When atoms share or exchange electrons to be happy, they stick together and form molecules
- This physical and digital system lets you discover the world of molecules in an intuitive, hands-on way by using a set of 250 atom models representing 16 different elements, you can assemble your own molecular models
- Atoms connect easily with magnets: metal tips on the ends of rubbery arms, which represent free electrons, snap onto magnetic bonding sites on the atom spheres, which represent empty spots for electrons in the atom's outermost electron shell
- You can snap together thousands of different molecules, because the atoms already have the correct number of free electrons and empty bonding sites, making it difficult to build a molecule that doesn't actually exist
- Using the Happy Atoms app and the camera on your tablet or smartphone, you can scan molecules you build
- The app then uses state-of-the-art image recognition technology to identify the molecules and after a molecule is discovered, the app presents information about it, including its composition, usage, properties, hazards, formula, and structure
- The app can recognize up to 10,000 molecules, presents in-depth information about 150 molecules and general information about the rest and is a fun and interactive chemistry curriculum
- Manual and App takes you on guided quests to discover new molecules and learn about them
- Track your progress with the app, collecting sets of molecules that you have built and explored
- All Thames & Kosmos chemistry sets are safety tested and approved, offer thorough saftey precautions, include professional quality lab equipment, and come with full-color experiment manuals
- Correlates to Next Generation Science Standards
- Kit contains: 216 Experiments, 250 pieces, poster, FREE App, 16 page color experiment manual, and plastic storage bin
- For System Operating Requirements see Specs Tab
