1 Created by G.Baker www.thesciencequeen.net Atoms, Elements, and Compounds

2 EQs 1.What is the difference between atoms, elements, molecules, and compounds? Created by G.Baker www.thesciencequeen.net

3 Matter is anything that takes up space and has mass. All matter is made of atoms

4 What are atoms? The smallest amount of an element. Atoms are the building blocks of matter, (sort of how bricks are the building blocks of houses.) Created by G.Baker www.thesciencequeen.net

5 An atom has three parts: Proton = positive Neutron = no charge Electron = negative The proton & neutron are found in the center of the atom, a place called the nucleus. The electrons orbit the nucleus. Picture from http://education.jlab.org/qa/atom_model_03.gif

6 What are elements? A basic substance that can't be simplified (hydrogen, oxygen, gold, etc...)hydrogenoxygen gold

7 What are Molecules? 2 or more atoms that are chemically joined together (H 2, O 2, H 2 O, etc...) Created by G.Baker www.thesciencequeen.net

8 What are compounds? A molecule that contains more than one element (H 2 O, C 6 H 12 O 6, etc...)

9 Partner QUIZ: 1.WHAT IS A MOLECULE? 2.WHAT IS AN ELEMENT? 3.WHAT IS A COMPOUND? 4. HOW ARE THESE THINGS RELATED? Created by G.Baker www.thesciencequeen.net

10 Summary: Created by G.Baker www.thesciencequeen.net Atoms combine to make Molecules Molecules can be either elements(2+same type of atom) or compounds (2+ different atoms combined) These all combine to make MATTER.

11 Video Break: Take five notes during the video. (write down five interesting facts) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GpR51zBAdFI Created by G.Baker www.thesciencequeen.net

12 Understanding Elements on the Periodic Table (DRAW ME) Created by G.Baker www.thesciencequeen.net 8 O Oxygen 16 Atomic Number: Number of protons and it is also the number of electrons in an atom of an element. Element’s Symbol: An abbreviation for the element. Elements Name Atomic Mass/Weight: Number of protons + neutrons. Atomic Math: To figure out the number of Neutrons you: Subtract the ATOMIC NUMBER from the Atomic Mass (16-8=8)
