ATOMS?
ATOMS:
The basic building blocks of all things. They are found in all things.
They are made of small particles:
Electrons (-), Neutrons (O) & Protons (+)
ATOMS?
There are 92 kinds of natural atoms
Natural atoms examples: oxygen, hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, gold, silver, sulfur, helium, aluminum etc..
ATOMS?
So...Aluminum foil is made of aluminum atoms.
A diamond consists of carbon atoms.
Sand is made of silicon and oxygen atoms.
The sugar in my tea...carbon, hydrogen & oxygen atoms
Molecules:
They are combinations of tightly bound atoms.
The atoms in molecules are held together by sharing electrons
Ex: Water is a combo of 2 hydrogen and 1 oxygen. Hence....H2O!
Molecules are extremely small and you need special labs to see them. Imaging them is even harder!
MOLECULES ???
