inorganic chemistry

• atom contains a nucleus composed of protons and neutrons.
• Elements are distinguishable from each other due to their "electron cloud"
• Chemical bonding is a key concept in chemistry.
• Chemical Bonding - It is also a topic area where understanding is developed through diverse models.
• Chemistry concerned with the properties and reactions of substances.
• Substances are often understood in terms of aggregations (or combinations) of particles, and the nature of the bonding between those particles is used to explain many of the chemical and the physical properties of the substance
• Chemical change involves the rearrangement of the constituent particles that make up the reactants, to give new configurations that are characteristic
• Chemical bonding - any of the interactions that account fot the association of atoms into molecules
• Lewis diagram - graphical representations of elements and their valence electron.
• Valence electron - are the electrons that form the outermost shell of an atom
• lewis diagram - the symbol of the element is written in the center and the valence electrons are drawn around it as dots.
• ionic bonding - the process of not sharing electrons between two atoms.
• ionic bonding - the process in which electrons are transferred to one another.
• covalent bonding - the process of sharing electrons between two atoms.
• binary compound - formed from two different elements.
• hydrocarbons - it contain only carbon and hydrogen and are the simplest type of inorganic compounds.
