Molecules Flashcards
2 or more atoms held together with a chemical bond.
Molecule
Connection between atoms
Chemical bond
Representation of an object
Model
The atoms that make up a malente af the specific quantity
Atomic composition
The specific way atoms are arranged
Chemical structure
Structure or atoms or molecules in a 3D pattern
Crystal
Structure of molecules with a repeating chain patters
Polymer
The specific way atoms are arranged.
Extended structure
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?
The major difference is most likely the atomic structure.
List 2 differences between crystals and polymers. Hint: one is shape and one is composition.
Polymers can only be molecules and crystals can be both and also
polymers are bonded in a chain and crystals are bonded in 3D
What is an element?
A square on the periodic table
What is an atom?
the smallest particle into which an element can be divided and still be the same element
What is a molecule?
Two or more atoms held together with a chemical bond.
When making molecule models, what do the beads represent? The sticks?
The beads are atoms and the sticks are chemical bonds.
Can you have 2 different crystals that are made of the same atom?
Yes but the structures are different
