What atoms form when they combine together?
They create molecules. If the atoms joined together are from different elements they create polar molecules.
Atoms combine chemically with each other to form what?
When atoms of two different elements chemically combine, they produce a compound. Such compounds include sodium chlorine, hydrogen fluorine, and barium sulfide. Note that if the elements are same, the result is a polyatomic element, not a compound.
Do atoms of nonmetals usually lose electrons when they combine with other atoms?
Yes :)
Why is lithium and chlorine likely to form an ionic compound?
because the atoms of lithium are the type where they take any form easily and stick to other elements. Chlorine on the other hand is the element form of a noble gas, it doesn't mix. So when the lithium clings to the chlorine, with the chlorine being unwilling, then an ionic compound forms.
What other elements does polonium combine with?
Known compounds with oxygen, hydrogen, iodine, chlorine, bromine, etc.
When two chlorine atoms combine with each other what bond forms?
covalent
How is a molecule formed?
Molecules are formed when atoms lose electrons and then attach themselves to other atoms
What other elements will combine with chlorine?
Anything that is not a noble gas will combine with chlorine.
How are there only a few atoms yet millions of substances?
Each atom can exist in many forms on its own. Then when you combine each of the forms with each of the forms of the other atoms, the number of substances increases exponentially.
Do molecules combine to form atoms?
Yes. For example, one sodium atom and one chlorine atom combine to make sodium chloride, commonly known as table salt. Two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom make water.
How can magnesium give away 2 electrons to chlorine?
One, but there is a catch. One magnesium atom will combine with two chlorine atoms to make magnesium chloride (MgCl2). The magnesium will give one electron to eachof two chlorine atoms to create this metal salt.
What atoms form when they combine together?
They create molecules. If the atoms joined together are from different elements they create polar molecules.
Why do atoms combine with another atoms?
Atoms combine with other atoms to become more stable. For example, Na (Sodium) has 11 atoms and if it gives Cl (Chlorine) one atom, it will then become 18 atoms. Ar (Argon) has 18 atoms which is also equivalent. When Sodium loses one it will then become 10 atoms, which is also equivalent to Ne (Neon). It is sort of a win-win situation.
Why do some atoms bond with other atoms?
Atoms combine with other atoms to form compound. It makes the atoms stable.
How chlorine forms anions?
yes, chlorine is a diatomic molecule, meaning two chlorine atoms can combine together to form a molecule.
Atoms combine chemically with each other to form what?

When atoms combine with other atoms?
They make molecules. Molecules are a bunch of Atoms together.
