Chapter 8: Lesson 2 Chemical Equations
Elements, Compounds, and Molecules http://apchemcyhs.wikispaces.com/Naming+Ionic+Compounds http://wiki.district87.org/index.php/Organic_compounds
Elements Consist of only 1 type of element Symbols for the elements are found on the periodic table
Diatomic Molecules Neutral particles in which elements share electrons Diatomic = “two” atoms These molecules have two atoms of the same element. Remember: HNOFClBrI H2, N2, O2, F2, Cl2, Br2, I2
Compounds Compounds are composed of 2 or more different atoms. H2O: water is a covalent compound NaCl: salt is an ionic compound {Formula Unit} http://www.elmhurst.edu/~chm/vchembook/images/103co.GIF http://compoundsforkids.wordpress.com/reaserch-paper/ http://ian.umces.edu/imagelibrary/displayimage-6463.html
Law of Conservation of Mass Mass Before = Mass After Mass of reactants = Mass of Products
