Bonds
|
links that join atoms

|
Covalent bonding
|
sharing of electrons between atoms on non-metals eg Oxygen gas

|
|
Lattices
|
a regular arrangement of particles - usually three dimensional
|
|
|
Metallic bonding
|
bonding with metals where there is a mutual attraction between the lattice of positive metallic ions and a sea of localised outer shell electrons
|
|
|
Molecules
|
a discrete number of atoms covalently bonded together to form a substance eg carbon dioxide

|
|
Monatomic
|
atoms that exist on their own eg noble gases
