Document Summary

Centrally, the way matter is constructed from the atom. Discrete chemical species comprising a central positively charged nucleus surrounded one or more negatively charged electrons. Collection of atoms with a definite structure held together by covalent bonds. Covalent bonds involve the sharing of electrons between neighbouring atoms (two electrons = single bond holding molecule together). Chemical species that are either positive or negatively charged. Cations: ions with a positive charge (in a case where an atom loses an electron and get positive charge). (cats are positive) Anions: ions with a negative charge (in a case where an atom gains an electron and get negative charge). Periodic table lists all elements. ded by gets a d gets a. Substances containing two or more elements (fundamental particles) in definitive and unchanging proportion. Compounds may be composed of molecules or a covalently-bonded network of atoms. Do not have individual "molecules" of an ionic compound.
