Think Past
Before watching this video, the Periodic Table was just a confusing bundle of nonsense to me. I understood the atomic numbers and why they were named what they were named. I believed that the Periodic Table was 118 all together in elements. I learned that I was incorrect in that circumstance.
Think Present
I've learned that there are isotopes. Isotopes are new versions of the atom. Basically, other creations. Glenn T. Seaborg founded nine other elements ( from isotopes ) on the periodic table. Which is pretty rad if you ask me. Seaborgium was named after his works on the periodic table.
Think Future
In the future I would love to learn more on how the scientists founded the isotopes.. It's quite confusing to me. I understand that the protons and neautrons can be taken out or put in. But, how do you know how much you've added? Where do you get these elements? HOW? All in all, Isotopes are something I would love to take on. The Periodic Table is a wonderful chart in the scientific world.
