Resource summary
C3 - Atoms, Molecules & Compounds
Atoms
Really tiny, positively charged nucleus and negatively charged electrons
Electrons move around the nucleus in layers known as shells
Can form bonds to make molecules or compounds
It's the electrons involved in making bonds
If an atom loses one or more electrons it becomes positively charged
If an atom gains one or more electrons it becomes negatively charged
Charged atoms are known as ions
If a positive ion meets a negative ion, they are attracted to another and join
This is called an ionic bond
The other main bond is called a covalent bond
When non-metal atoms join, they form covalent bonds by sharing pairs of electrons
Because the bond is a shared pair, no atom loses electrons
