atoms element and compound Flashcards
(33 cards)
element
made up of only one type of atom
atom
the smallest particle of a chemical element
molecule
a group of atom bonded together
compound
pure substance that are formed when 2 or more element chemically combine together
mixture
contains more than one substance which could be element or compound
metal
a solid material which is shiny hard or any physical characteristic
non metal
a substance that is not metal
proton number
number of proton in the nucleus of an atom
mass number
total number of proton and neutron number in a nuclues of a atom
ion
an electrically charged particle
isotope
atoms of the same element which have same proton number but different neutron number
relative atomic mass
average mass of an element compared to 1/12th of the mass of an atom of 12C
neutron
an uncharged atomic particle which have mass almost nearly to that of proton
electron
a negatively charged subatomic partice
atomic nucleus
consist of positively charged proton and neutraly neutron
why do elements react together
Atoms are more stable with a full outer shell, 8 electrons,
chemical bonding in metal
metalic
chemical bonding of metals and non metals
ionic
chemical bonding in non metals
covalent
metalic
electrostatic force of attraction between positive nuclei and negative delocalised electrons
ionic
electron transfered from metal to non-metal atom
covalent
electrons shared between non metal atom
what bonding is in lattice
mettalic bonding
lattice
a regular, repeating 3D structure within a crystal where atoms, ions, or molecules are arranged in an ordered, repeating pattern
