(44 cards)
Element
substance that cannot be broken down any further
substance containing atoms with the same atomic number or proton number
compound
Made of different atoms and elements that have been bonded together
Mixture
Different substances that haven’t been bonded together
Signs of a chemical reaction
One or more new substances are formed
Energy taken in or given out
Difficult to reverse
REN
Signs of a physical change
If no new substance is formed it is a physical change
Why do atoms bond
They bond in order to gain stability and have full outer shells
What is a bond
A force of attraction present between two or more atoms, elements, or ions in a compound
Ions
An ion is a charged particle that is formed when an atom gains/looses electrons
Positive ions
Cations A POSITIVE CAT
Negative ions
Anions
Ionic bond
Metal and non-metal
Strong electrostatic force of attraction between ions of opposite charge
Metals form which ion
POSITIVE - CATIONS
Non-metals form which ion
NEGATIVE - ANIONS

What is a covalent bond
An inter-molecular force of attraction that holds the two atoms together and allows them to share a pair of electrons
2 or more non metals
Molecule
Two or more atoms held together by covalent bonds
Diatomic
Molecules that contain two atoms
What is a covalent compound
A compound formed by atoms of different elements sharing electrons
