  • explain how the model of the atom changed following the discovery of electrons, protons and neutrons and describe how natural radioactive decay results in stable atoms
  • Example: comparing the mass and charge of protons, neutrons and electrons
  • Common trap: examining how the discovery of electrons, protons and neutrons resulted from experimental evidence and answered questions related to properties and behaviours of atoms
