Matter can be composed of an element, a compound, or a mixture.

Element – a pure substance made of one type of atom, and it cannot be broken down.

Page 6: Chemistry of Life. All matter is made up of atoms. Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space.

There are 109 elements.

96% of the mass of a human is made of only 4 elements –

carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen.

Compound - a pure substance that is composed of atoms of two or more different elements joined by chemical bonds.

Most elements do not exist alone. Elements combine to form compounds.

Chemical bondChemical bond

The elements that make up a compound are held together by chemical bonds.

A chemical bond is a force of attractionbetween two atoms.

Page 12: Chemistry of Life. All matter is made up of atoms. Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space.

There are two types of chemical bonds:

• Covalent bond

• Ionic bond

Page 13: Chemistry of Life. All matter is made up of atoms. Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space.

(1) Covalent bond – chemical bond between atoms in which electrons are shared.

(2) Ionic bond – chemical bond between atoms in which electrons are transferred to other atom.
