Made of two or more different atoms bonded together. 4. Made of different atoms and/or compounds not chemically bonded together. 5. No charge. Found in nucleus. Gain or loss of these particles results in a loss of mass and release of a large amount of energy. Isotopes result. 6. Positive charge. Found in nucleus. Gain or loss of these particles produces an entirely different element. 7. Negative charge. Found moving in waves around the nucleus to create covalent or ionic bonds. Gain or loss of these particles produces ions.

Atoms are the building blocks of matter. Essential Question: How are atoms, elements and compounds related? Atoms are the building blocks of matter. One atom is the smallest representation of an element. When two or more atoms of the same or differing elements combine chemically they form molecules.

Elaborate: 1.__________ is the “stuff” that all objects and substances in the universe are made of. Matter is made up of tiny particles called atoms and molecules.

Elaborate: Matter is the “stuff” that all objects and substances in the universe are made of. Matter is made up of tiny particles called atoms and molecules. These particles attract each other; the greater the attraction, the closer the particles get.

Elaborate: The particles that make up matter are constantly moving. In solids, these particles vibrate in place, but the vibration isn’t great enough to overcome the attraction between the particles and cause them to separate. The particles of liquid move faster and can overcome some of the attraction between the particles, so they can ____ around and over each other. In a gas the particles of the substance move so fast that they are able to overcome the _________ between them and separate from each other entirely.

Elaborate: An element is considered the simplest form of matter. It cannot be broken down into simpler substances under normal conditions. There are about 110 known elements in the universe.

Elaborate: Each element is made of atoms of the same type and has a unique set of physical and chemical properties. These properties can be used to identify different elements and are used to organize them on a chart known as the periodic table of ___________.

Elaborate: The periodic table is made up of horizontal rows and vertical __________ of boxes.

Elaborate: The periodic table is made up of horizontal rows and vertical columns of boxes.

Elaborate: Each box contains information about a single element such as the elements name, the chemical symbol for the element, the elements atomic number and the elements atomic mass.

Elaborate: The atomic mass is the average mass of an atom of that element and the atomic number is the number of protons in an atom of that elements. Each row of elements is called a___________.

Elaborate: Each row of elements is called a period. If you read a period from left to right, you will see that the elements are arranged in order by their atomic number.

Elaborate: Each column in the periodic table is called a group or family. The elements in each group share similar physical and __________ properties. When two or more elements combine chemically, they form a ____________.

Elaborate: Each column in the periodic table is called a group or family. The elements in each group share similar physical and chemical properties. When two or more elements combine chemically, they form a compound.

Elaborate: Some familiar compounds include table salt which is made up of sodium and chlorine atoms, and sugar which is made up of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms. Compounds are known as pure substances.

Elaborate: One way to classify a compound is by its pH which is used to tell how _______ or basic a substance is. A substance with a pH of less than 7 is considered acidic, a pH of 7 is considered neutral, and a pH greater than 7 is considered basic.
