Matter Classification
2
Microscopic Scale Atom – building block of all matter
Molecule – two or more atoms chemically bonded together
3
Microscopic Scale Atom Molecule Molecule of element of compound
The smallest unit of an element Ex) Na, Mg, Fe, Ar, Zn, Cu Molecule of element Same element chemically bonded Ex) H2, O2, N2, F2, Cl2, Br2, I2, S8 Molecule of compound Different elements chemically bonded Ex) H2O, CO2, HCl, CH2O
