What is a compound
Substance that is made of two or more types of atoms that have chemically reacted
The new compound is totally different to the original elements
Solid properties ( Also know the diagram)
Cannot flow Cannot be compressed Strong bonds Fixed volume Dense (lots of particles in a small volume) Definite shape
Liquid properties
Can flow easily
Change shape
Cannot be compressed
Medium density (quite a lot of particles in a small volume)
Some forces of attraction between the particles
Particles are close but free to move
Don’t keep a definite shape
Gas properties
Easily flow Move freely Can be compressed Most energy Very weak forces between the particles Don’t keep a definite shape Low density ( not many particles in a large volume)
When two / three or more different elements combine, this is called
A compound
Naming compounds:
When two different elements combine, the compound ends in ide
Eg sodium + chlorine =
Magnesium + oxygen =
Sodium chloride
Magnesium oxide
