The document discusses the components and structure of atoms. It defines elements, molecules, compounds, and mixtures. Atoms consist of subatomic particles including protons, neutrons, and electrons. The number of protons determines the element, while the number of neutrons distinguishes between isotopes of the same element. The periodic table arranges elements based on atomic number and properties. Elements are classified as metals, nonmetals, and metalloids based on their properties. Valence electrons determine an element's chemical properties and reactivity. Atomic size and ionization energy depend on position in the periodic table.
3. •Element is the building block of matter.
It consists of one kind of atom.
•Molecule consists of two or more atoms
chemically bound together.
•Compound a substance composed of
two or more elements that are
chemically combined.
•Mixture is a group of two or more
elements and compounds that are
physically intermingled.
4. Dalton’s Atomic Theory
•All matter consists of an atom.
•Atoms of one element cannot be
converted into atoms of other
elements.
•Atoms of an element differ from the
other elements.
•Compound is a result of a chemical
combination of a specific ratio of atoms
of different elements.
5. The Atom
• An atom consists of a nucleus that contains protons
and neutrons. Wherein, of electrons, are in a large,
empty space around the nucleus.
6. Subatomic Particles
Atoms contain subatomic
particles.
• Protons have a positive (+)
charge.
• Electrons have a negative (–)
charge.
• Like charges repel, and unlike
charges attract.
• Neutrons are neutral.
