Atoms
Smallest functional unit of matter that form all chemical substances, can’t be broken down further.
3 subatomic particles
Protons
Electrons
Neutrons.
Protons
Positively charged, found in nucleus same #as electrons
Neutrons
Neutral found in nucleus,#can vary
Electrons
Negatively charged, found in orbitals, same # as protons.
S orbitals
Are spherical
P orbitals
Propeller/dumbbell shaped
How many electron can each orbital hold.
2 electron, an atom with more than 2 electron have more than 1 orbital
1st Shell
1 spherical orbital, holds 2 electron
2nd shell
1 spherical orbitan & 3 propeller / dumbbell shaped orbitals, holds 4 pairs of electrons.
Protons
Of protons distinguishes one element from another
Periodic table
Organizes elements by atomic #
Atomic Mass
Protons+ #nutrons
Dalton (d)
Unit of measurement for atomic mass
Isotopes
Multiple forms of an element that differ in The # of neutrons.
Molecule
2/ more atoms bonded together
Molecular formula
Contains chemical symbols of elements found in a molecule
Compound
Molecule composed of 2/more atoms/elements
3 types of bonds
Covalent
Hydrogen
Ionic
2 covalent bonds
Polar covalent
Non polar covalent
Covalent bonds
Atoms share a pair of electrons
Covalent bond occurs
Between atoms whose outer electron Shells are not full
Covalent bonds can share
1 pair of electron- single bond h-f
2 pairs of electron- double bond 0=0
3 pairs of electron- triple bond
Octet Rule
Atoms are staple when their outer shell is full
