Elements Notes

Atoms are the fundamental unit of matter and are composed of protons, neutrons and electrons. Elements are made of a single type of atom and cannot be broken down further, while molecules form when elements chemically bond together, and can be made of one type of atom or many different types. Compounds are molecules composed of more than one type of atom. Pure substances like atoms, elements, molecules and compounds are chemically bonded, while mixtures are made of two or more substances that are not chemically bonded and can be either heterogeneous, where the different substances can be seen, or homogeneous, where they appear uniform throughout.
