Atom
Smallest thing you can break matter down into while still keeping its original identity.
Atoms are used to create the elements.
Elements are used to create everything in the world.. .
So far, there are over 100 known elements.So far, there are over 100 known elements.
An element is a substance in which all of its atoms are the
same.

The Periodic Table
• Dimitri Mendeleev was the Russian scientist who developed the modern Periodic Table
• The Periodic Table is an arrangement of all elements in
order of atomic number.
What is the symbol for beryllium?
Be
What do you notice about the first and last letters of thesymbol?
The first letter is always a capitaland the following letters are always small letters.
What is the name of this element?
Tells how many protons are in the atom
Tells the mass of the atom of lithium
Is the symbol for lithium.How do I know it is only one element and not two put together?
Element – a pure substance. It can NOT decompose into another
substance.
Decompose – break down
Stop here and finish the Periodic Table

Salt is made up of 2 elements. So salt is a _______________.
Salt is made up of sodium, which has the symbol _______ and chloride which has the symbol __________.
We can represent salt with the formula_________.

In a compound, the different elements are chemically bonded together.
A formula tells us what elements are in matter and how many atoms there are of the element.
K3CrO2
3 atoms ofpotassium
1 atomof chromium
2 atoms ofoxygen
These atoms are bonded together chemically!
Write down these formulas. Tell what elements they are made up of and how many atoms there are in each substance.
H2O2
HCl
NaH2CO3
2 atoms hydrogen, 2 atoms oxygen
1 atom hydrogen, 1 atom chloride
1 atom sodium, 2 atoms hydrogen 1 atom carbon, 3 atoms oxygen
Why are these compounds?More than 1 type ofelement is bound together.
