atoms and molecules
TRANSCRIPT
Do NOT make an ATOM an ION unless it tells you too!
THIS MEANS- Do NOT make an ATOM stable unless it tells you to do so.
To determine the charge of a picture of an atom look at the number of protons and electrons in the picture and determine the charge. (Examples are on the next slide.)
Review:What is the charge of this ATOM? Just use the
number of protons and electrons that are given.
What is the charge of this ATOM? Just use the number of protons and electrons that are given.

All matter is made of _____________.Atoms
Why would an atom combine with other atoms?
To make the atom stable
When an atom combines with another atom, this forms a ______________________?Molecul
e
When atoms are joined together, they form a _____BOND______.
Atoms bond together for a very simple reason: atoms like to have full valence shells. (8 electrons)
Atoms will share, give away, or gain electrons when forming a bond.
Substances in which 2 or more elements have bonded together form a material with unique chemical properties.
Example: water - 2 Hydrogen atoms bonded to 1 Oxygen atom. H2O

There are two types of molecules
Element MoleculeElement
If a substance has two or more of the same atoms it is a molecule that is an Element
Ex. O (the oxygen we breathe) is made out of two oxygen atoms

If all atoms in a molecule are alike, then the molecule is classified as an
_______________.
ELEMENT
Molecules
form when atoms join
Compound
The other type of molecule is a compound.
Do you think that the atoms joined together in a compound are all the same?
NO! The atoms are different.
Compound MoleculesA combination of two or more different elements
(atoms)Examples:
1 Na atom + 1 Cl atom = the compound NaCl2 H atoms + 1 O atom = the compound H O
The examples above are compounds because the molecule is made out of _____________ atoms.

Energy in Chemical ReactionsOften energy is released or absorbed in
chemical reactions.Where does the energy come from?? Bonds
break or form from electrons being lost or gained.
Energy is released when there is less energy in the products than the reactants. This is called an EXOTHERMIC reaction.
If energy is absorbed there is less energy in the reactants than the products. This is called an ENDOTHERMIC reaction.
Exo = out Endo= in

Chemical Formulas cont.Writing chemical formulas:
Follow right to left pattern on the Periodic Table of ElementsEx. NaCl sodium is a metal located
on the far left and Cl is located farther to the right
Therefore, the formula is written as NaCl instead of ClNa
If a molecule is made out of one type of atom, it is calledA. Element
If a molecule is made out of different types of atoms it is?
B. Compound
Chemical Equations
•Chemical equation tells about a chemical reaction.
•It shows the substances we start with.
•It shows the new substances that are formed.
