Q: What’s the difference between atoms and molecules? Elements and compounds? A: Molecules are made up of two or more atoms joined together. Compounds are made up of two or more elements.
3
B. What is everything made of? Element – Substance that can’t be broken down to any simpler substance, e.g. ____________, _____________, ______________ Atom – Basic unit of matter, smallest particle of an _______________. Compound – Pure substance made of two or more elements, e.g. ______________ _______________________ Molecule – Particle made of two or more __________ joined together. Smallest particle of a __________________ carbonoxygenhydrogen element water (H 2 O)carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) atoms compound
4
Carbon Compounds Essential Questions 1. What nutrients do all living things need? 2. What are the building blocks of cells?
6
1. The author states that “no other element even comes close to matching carbon’s versatility.” (p. 44). Describe three different things carbon can do that makes it useful to living things. Can join with other elements: oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, etc. Can join with other carbon atoms to form chains, rings Can form millions of big, complex structures.
