element
pure substance, all atoms have same number of protons
single bond
share 1 electron
double bond
share 2 electrons
formula
chemical formula, shows elements that combine or something
atomic mass
mass of an atom
metals
high electron conductivity, based on location in periodic table
non-metals
not metals
metalloids
transition metals, in between the metalloids and the non-metals (ladder)
atoms
smallest building block of matter
valence electrons
number of electrons in the outermost layer, determines bonding
