A molecule is defined as an electrically neutral group of at least two atoms in a definite arrangement held together by very strong (covalent) chemical bonds. Molecules are distinguished from polyatomic ions in this strict sense. In organic chemistry and biochemistry, the term molecule is used less strictly and also is applied to charged organic molecules and biomolecules.In the kinetic theory of gases, the term molecule is often used for any gaseous particle regardless of its composition. According to this definition noble gas atoms are considered molecules despite the fact that they are composed of a single non-bonded atom.
Compounds are formed by the reaction of two or more elements.
Yes. Compounds formed by sharing electrons are called covalent compounds.
Today are known approx. 65.106 chemical compounds.
Molecular compounds certainly can be formed from semimetals, but not all the compounds of semimetals are molecular.
Compounds are formed when elements of matter are chemically combined.
Covalent compounds are formed by covalent bonds.
A large compound formed by the joining of smaller compounds is called a polymer.
Compounds are not mixtures; mixtures are formed from compounds.
Compounds are formed from elements.
These compounds are called products of the reaction.
a mixed compound accours when new compounds are formed
Compounds that are formed from cations and anions, or ions with negative and positive charge. Ionic compounds are also compounds that are formed from a metal and a non-metal.
