Matter Everything Matter in the universe is made of matter. is anything that takes up space and has mass

Elements cannot be broken down into simpler matter. There are over 100 elements but there are only 92 that occur naturally

Atoms Smallest particle of an element. Elements are made of atoms! Atoms are made of Protons = Postive charge, found in the nucleus of the atom Neutrons = Neutral charge, found in the nucleus of the atom Electrons = Negative charge, found in the outer shell Postiviely Charged Protons = Negatively Charged Electrons

Molecules vs Compounds Molecules are two or more atoms bonded together CO 2, H 2 O, O 2, Compounds are two or more elements bonded together CO 2, H 2 O But not O 2 Why not O 2?

Bonding Why do atoms bond? Same Atoms reason we do, to be in stable relationship! are more stable when they are bonded together.

Types of Bonds Covalent Ionic Bonding= Sharing of electrons Bonding = Gaining or losing of electrons. If an atom gains or loses an electron it is called an ION.
