Neutral
Ions
Electrons are transferred from one atom to another
Ionic bond
Electrons are shared between atoms
Covalent bond

Octet rule
Atoms are stable(happy)when their outer energy level has eight electrons
Anything that has mass and takes up space
Matter
Rigid and usually has an organized structure high density
Solid
Fluid structure Adams can slide past each other easily take the shape of its container medium density
Liquid
Fluid structure atoms move freely completely fills its container lowest density
Gas
Simplest form of matter can’t be broken down by ordinary chemical means
Element
When two or more elements or compounds are chemically combined to form a new substance
Compounds
A substance made of two or more elements or compounds but it can be easily separated
Mixture
