You can break molecules down into atoms. But that, they said, is as far as you can go. You can take some of the electrons from an atom, but the core, or nucleus, of the atom is unbreakable, they explained. 3. As men pushed their studies of the atom further, however, they realized that this is untrue. For some atoms may throw off protons and change from one element to another. For instance, an atom of radium, which has 88 protons in its nucleus, may undergo spontaneous change. It will emit 6 protons in a series of steps, to change to lead. During these steps, the radium atom also emits a great deal of energy in the form of radiation and heart. Only a few elements are capable of changing to different elements in this manner. 4. On the other hand, elements can also be changed by the addition of moreprotons to their nuclei. For instance, we mentioned above that men havecreated a whole series of new elements by bombarding atoms uranium andother heavy elements with nuclear bullets. Such bombardments can also beused to "smash" atoms, or break them apart. In either case, whenever at-oms are changed, energy is released. This release of energy, of course, isthe basis of atomic energy.
