ATOMS

KEY Compounds
WORDS… 1.1 (2+ different types of atoms)
Chemical bonds hold the atoms
o Element- a THE PERIODIC TABLE tightly together in compounds
substance made o Group 0- the noble gases Example:
up of only one o water = H2O (2)
Group 1- the alkali metals
carbon dioxide = CO2 (2)
type of atom o Group 2- the alkaline earth metals
(cannot be broken o Group 3
o Group 4
down into other
o Group 5
substances) o Group 6 ELEMENTS
o Compound- a o Group 7- the halogens Example:
substance made Sodium (Na = Natrium)
up of 2 or more o Symbols in periodic table represent atoms (e.g Potassium (K = Kalium)
different elements O, oxygen)
chemically o Each group contains elements with similar
bonded together chemical properties
(e.g water/ H2O)
ATOMS
From the - All atoms are made up of a tiny
o Atom- the smallest Ratio of Hydrogen central nucleus with electrons
part of an element chemical water (H20) is a non- orbiting around it
that can exist formula - Protons and neutrons are inside
= H atoms: metal
o Electrons- C02 1 the atoms
carbon O atoms because it
subatomic particle 2:1
that is negatively atom and 2 is a gas
charged oxygen
