atoms = smallest unit of an element
elements = contain only one type of atom
compounds = two or more elements that are chemically bound together
molecules = a group of atoms bonded together
That is false.
An ion is "<span>an electrically charged atom or group of atoms formed by the loss or gain of one or more electrons."
But in detail anion means gaining of electrons.
So, a gain of electrons by an atom creates an anion.</span>
I will chill a container so that its outer surface is very cold, but dry. Then I will
wave the container through the air, and point out the liquid water from the air
that collects on the cold outer surface of the container.
Carbon Dioxide has two polar C=O. bonds, but the geometry of Carbon dioxide is linear so that the two bond dipole moments cancel and there is no net molecular dipole moment; the molecule is nonpolar.
I hope this helps :)
