This document defines key chemistry terms such as atom, chemical formula, chemical symbol, compound, element, molecule, and Periodic Table. It provides brief explanations for each term, noting that an atom is the smallest part of an element, a chemical formula shows the relative number of atoms in a compound, and a compound is made up of two or more strongly joined elements.
