Document Summary

Protons - positive charged particles - determines element name - located in the nucleus o o nucleus. Neutrons - neutral charged particles - located in the nucleus. Electrons - negative charged particles - located in orbitals surrounding. Isotopes - form of an element with a different number of neutrons. Covalent bonding - atoms" unpaired electrons are shared by both nuclei in order to fill all valence orbitals. Ionic bonding - electrons are transferred between atoms. Covalent bonds/ionic bonds between atoms = a molecule. In covalent bonds, electronegativity can cause one atom to have a partial negative or partial positive charge o. Nonpolar covalent bond - electrons are shared evenly and molecule is symmetrical o. Polar covalent bond - electrons are asymmetrically shared. In ionic bonds electrons are completely transferred from one atom to another to give each atom a full outer shell o o. Four valence electrons allow carbon to make many different molecules.
