Molecule: two or more atoms held together by chemical bonds molecule, the smallest unit that retains the physical and chemical properties of a compound, similar atoms-molecule element, different atoms-molecule compound, elements and compounds are both molecules. If an atom has an almost empty or an almost full outer electron shell is likely to form an ion: ion: a charged atom or molecule. It is charged because it has either lost or gained electrons: any atom that"s gained or lost electrons, anion: a negatively charged atom or molecule.
