∟Introduction of Molecules

This chapter provides quick introductions about molecules, molecular formula, atomic bonds and molecule structures.

What Is Molecule

What Is Molecular Formula

What Is Atomic Bond

What Is Molecule Structure

Skeletal Formula Notations

Takeaways:

• Molecule is a group of two or more atoms that form the smallest identifiable unit of a pure substance.
• Molecule Formula is an expression of element symbols and numbers of atoms of same element types that bonded together to form the molecule.
• Atomic Bond is a physical process that ties atoms together to form a molecule.
• Molecule Structure is a graphical model of a molecule on how its atoms are bonded together, with information about atom types/sizes/locations and bound types.
• Molecule Structures are commonly represented as Skeletal Formula diagrams.
