GCSE Chemistry
unit 1
- Atom
- Smallest part of an element
that can be recognised as
that element.
- Element
- Contains only
one type of atom
- Over 100
elements on the
periodic table
- Mostly
Metals
- They are split
into groups
- Group 0 is the
noble gasses
- Group 1 is the
alkaline metals
- Group 2 is the
Earth Metals
- Compound
- 2 or more elements that
have been chemically
combined or joined
- Bonding
- Ionic
- Only occurs when a metal
is chemically combined
with a non metal
- one of the
elements takes
an electron
from another
- Covalent
- Only occurs when a
non metal chemically
combines non metal
- Sharing of
an electron
- Metallic
- Is when the inside of a metal
combines with another
particle inside of the metal
- NaCl
- Ionicly
Bonded
- CH4
- Covalenty
Bonded
- Cu
- Metalic
Bonding
- H2O
- Covalently
Bonded
- O2
- Covalently
Bonded
- When atoms bond
covalently they
share an electron
- This is because they
need to complete their
outer shells
- When atoms bond
ionicly one atom
takes an electron
from another atom
- Again because both the
atoms want to complete
their outer shells
- Atoms
- Proton
- Positively
charged
- Neutron
- Neutrally
charged
- Electron
- Negatively
charged
- An atom that has the same
number of electrons and
protons does not have a charge
- Atoms that have different
numbers of electrons and
protons are ions
