Term Definition
Elements Substances that cannot be broken down into simpler substances by chemical means.
Symbols Abbreviations used to represent chemical elements (e.g., H for Hydrogen).
Periodic Table A tabular arrangement of elements organized by atomic number and properties.
Atoms The smallest unit of a chemical element, consisting of protons, neutrons, and electrons.
Atomic Number The number of protons in the nucleus of an atom, determining the element's identity.
Atomic Mass The weighted average mass of an element's isotopes relative to a carbon-12 atom.
Mass Number The total number of protons and neutrons in an atomic nucleus.
Isotopes Atoms of the same element that have different numbers of neutrons and different mass numbers.
Neutron A subatomic particle with no electric charge found in the nucleus of an atom.
Proton A positively charged subatomic particle found in the nucleus of an atom.
Electron A negatively charged subatomic particle that orbits the nucleus of an atom.
Cation A positively charged ion formed when an atom loses one or more electrons.
Anion A negatively charged ion formed when an atom gains one or more electrons.
Ion An atom or molecule that has a net electric charge due to the loss or gain of one or more electrons.
Valence Electron An electron in the outermost shell of an atom that participates in chemical bonding.
Lewis Structure A diagram that represents the arrangement of valence electrons around atoms.
Octet Rule The principle that atoms tend to bond in such a way that they each have eight electrons in their valence shells.
Orbitals Regions in an atom where there is a high probability of finding electrons.
Electronegativity A measure of an atom's ability to attract and hold electrons when bonded to another atom.
Ionic Compounds Compounds formed by the electrostatic attraction between cations and anions.
Covalent Compounds Compounds formed when atoms share electrons in chemical bonds.
Polyatomic Ions Ions consisting of two or more atoms bonded together, carrying a net charge.
Polarity A property of molecules having a partial positive charge on one side and a partial negative charge on the other, due to the uneven distribution of electrons.
Molecular Shapes The three-dimensional arrangement of atoms within a molecule.
Attractive Forces Interactions that draw molecules or atoms together, influencing their state and properties.
Nomenclature The system of naming chemical compounds based on their composition and structure.
Formula A representation of a chemical substance using symbols for its constituent elements.
Monoatomic Ion An ion formed from a single atom that has gained or lost electrons.
Mole A unit in chemistry representing 6.022 x 10²³ of a substance (Avogadro's number).
Molar Mass The mass of one mole of a substance, expressed in grams per mole (g/mol).
Simple Substitution A type of chemical reaction where one element is replaced by another in a compound.
Double Substitution A chemical reaction where two compounds exchange ions or elements to form new compounds.
Decomposition A reaction where a single compound breaks down into two or more simpler products.
Synthesis/Combination A reaction where two or more simple substances combine to form a more complex product.
Chemical Equation A symbolic representation of a chemical reaction showing the reactants and products.
Boyle's Law A law stating that the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume at constant temperature.
Charles' Law A law stating that the volume of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant pressure.
Avogadro's Law A law stating that equal volumes of gases contain an equal number of molecules at the same temperature and pressure.
