Molecular Structure

A substance that is made of only one type of atom.

• Isotope
• Element
• Compound
• Molecule

A group of atoms that are held together by chemical bonds and act as a unit.

• Element
• Molecule
• Atom
• Compound

A chemical element that can range from colorless gases like hydrogen to iodine.

• Alloys
• Noble gases
• Metals
• Nonmetal Gases

Brittle, not lustrous and low melting point.

• Nonmetal Solids

• Alloys
• Noble gases
• Metals

A solid material that is typically hard, shiny, malleable, with good electrical conductivity.

• Metal
• Glass
• Wood
• Plastic

Made up of positive and negative ions held together by strong bonds, typically form when a metal reacts with a nonmetal.

• Ionic compounds
• Metallic compounds
• Covalent compounds
• Molecular compounds

A chemical bond were in two or more atoms share one or more electron pairs. An example is a water molecule.

• Ionic bond
• Metallic bond
• Hydrogen bond
• Covalent compound

A 3D arrangement of atoms or molecules that has a specific pattern.

• Molecular lattice
• Extended structure

• Atomic grid
• Solid state arrangement

To become or cause to become incorporated into a liquid so as to form a solution.

• Dissolve
• Mix
• Blend
• Stir
