Molecules Flashcards
Two or more atoms held together with chemical bond
Molecule
Connection between atoms
Chemical bond
Representation of an object
Model
The atoms that make up a molecules + the specific quantities
Atomic composition
The specific way the atoms are arranged
Chemical Structure
A molecules whose atoms occur in a constant ratio + repeating
extended Structure
Structure of atom or molecules in a 3D pattern
Crystal
Structure of molecules with a many repeating chain pattern
Polymer
Glucose and fructose both have an atomic composition of C6 H12 O6 but they are different molecules. What is most likely the major difference between them
There chemical structure is different
List two differences between crystals and polymers. Hint: one is shape and one is composition
Crystals can be atoms or molecules and polymers can only be molecules and crystals are 3D polymers are a repeating chain
What is an element
a square on the periodic table
What is an atom
The smallest unit of the elements
What is a molecule
Group of bonds together
When making molecules models, what do the beads and sticks represent
Beads=atoms, sticks= chemical bonds
Can you have 2 different crystals that are made of the same atom
Yes because they could have to different structure
