Matter |
Anything that has ass and occupies space |
|
Element |
A pure substance composed of a single type of atom |
|
Atom |
Particles that make up all of matter. "Building blocks" |
|
Nucleus |
Contains subatomic particles . |
|
Protons |
Positively charged |
|
Neutron |
Negatively charged |
|
Electron |
Chemical energy holds electron in orbitals nucleus |
|
Orbitals |
Are located on shells |
|
Outermost shell |
Valence Shell |
|
Reactive Atoms |
Will lose or gain electrons so that the valence shell is full |
|
Inert Atoms |
Already have a full valence shell |
|
Atomic Numbers |
No net charge # or protons never vary |
|
Mass Number |
# of protons + # of nucleus |
|
Isotopes |
Atoms if the same element that differ in # of neutrons |
|
Four most common elements in the body. |
Hydrogen Carbon Oxygen Nitrogen |
|
Ion |
Results when electrons are lost or gained by an atom |
|
Cations |
Are positively charged . have lost electrons |
|
Anions |
Are negatively charged gain electrons |
|
Chemical Bonds |
Form whenever electrons are transferred or shared |
|
Ionic Bond |
Electron transfer , strong attraction between a action and an anion |
|
Covalent Bond |
Electron Sharing |
|
Single covalent bond |
One pair of of electron are shared (h2) |
|
Double covalent bonf |
Two pairs are shared |
|
Nonpolar Covalent Bond |
Electrons shared equally |
|
Polar covalent bond |
Shared unequally One atom has a stronger attraction polarity. Changed polls |
|
Molecule |
2 or more atoms covalently bonded that we have as an independent unit |
|
Compound |
2 or more different kinds of atoms bounded together |
|
Covalent Compounds |
Are molecules |
|
