Linked up atoms form matter called a compound
elements
molecules or compounds
an element.

compound
Atoms can fuse together to form molecules or compounds.
No. Substances are made of atoms. Some atoms combine with other atoms to form compounds.
chemical bonding
I think electron cloudElectrons, especially the valence electrons (in the outmost orbitals), are involved in bonding atoms to other atoms to form new molecules of different compounds.
They can form a new compound.
Yes - and can be elements as O2 - Oxygen gas or mixtures of atoms to form compounds like CH4- Methane
Atoms can fuse together to form molecules or compounds.
Every type of atom can form compounds.
Atoms form molecules.
No. Substances are made of atoms. Some atoms combine with other atoms to form compounds.
ions
Chemical compounds
A molecule...
The basic building block of all compounds is atoms. Compounds contain atoms of at least two different elements bonded to one another. Thus, atoms of elements are what form compounds.
they share electrons
The chemical properties of atoms are significantly changed when they form compounds. When elements combine to form compounds it is called a chemical reaction. The compound is then a collection of molecules and each molecule has are still the same atoms as one started with, but the arrangement of the electrons in the atoms has changed.
