A substance that is made up of two or more elements that are chemically combined
Compounds
The joining of atoms to form new substances
Chemical bonding
The force of attraction between oppositely charged ions
Ionic bond
Charged particles that form during chemical changes when one or more valence electrons transferred from one atom to another
Ions
A repeating three-dimensional pattern of ions
Crystal lattice
A force of attraction that holds two atoms together
Chemical bond
The electrons in the outer most energy level of an atom these electrons are involved in forming chemical bonds
Valence electrons
The force of attraction between the nuclei of atoms and electrons shared by the atoms
Covalent bond
A neutral group of atoms held together by covalent bonds
Molecule
