24
Q

Atomic theory

A

all matter is made up of tiny invisible particles (atoms)

25
Q

Components of the atom

A

electrons and protons & neutrons in the nucleus

26
Q

How is an ion formed

A

when an atom/molecule where the total number of electrons is not equal to the number of protons, thus giving it either a positive or negative charge

27
Q

Example of an ion

A

H2O molecule, polar —> unequal sharing of electrons thus molecule is slightly negative
