Molecules and Compounds

En la naturaleza, toda la materia está conformada por unidades químicas básicas conocidas como elementos que tienen propiedades físicas y químicas específicas. La tabla periódica registra un total de 118 elementos identificados hasta la fecha. La unidad constitutiva de cada elemento es el átomo.Algunos elementos como el helio, el neón, la plata o el platino existen como unidades de átomos individuales e independientes. Otros elementos como el hidrógeno, el oxígeno o el azufre existen como unidades de dos o más átomos idénticos. Estos átomos múltiples se mantienen juntos gracias a fuerzas electrostáticas resistentes conocidas como enlaces químicos, y forman unidades estables llamadas moléculas.Además, dos o más elementos distintos también se pueden combinar para formar moléculas como el agua o la fructosa. Estas moléculas, formadas al combinar átomos de dos o más elementos unidos químicamente en una proporción fija, también se conocen como compuestos. Por tanto, las moléculas de agua y fructosa también son compuestos.La molécula de agua está formada por dos átomos de hidrógeno y uno de oxígeno. En cambio, la fructosa es una molécula que contiene seis átomos de carbono, doce de hidrógeno y seis de oxígeno. Los átomos individuales en un compuesto se mantienen juntos por los enlaces químicos, que determinan el tipo de compuesto que se formará, como un compuesto iónico o molecular.Los compuestos covalentes o moleculares, como el agua, se forman cuando átomos no metálicos se unen y comparten sus electrones de valencia a través de un enlace covalente. Los electrones que se comparten entre dos átomos reducen la energía potencial y crean moléculas más estables comparado con los átomos individuales. Los compuestos iónicos, como el cloruro de sodio, se forman cuando átomos metálicos y no metálicos se unen.Los metales pierden electrones fácilmente y se convierten en cationes, mientras que los no metales ganan electrones muy rápido y se vuelven aniones. De este modo, los átomos metálicos transfieren electrones a los no metálicos y las interacciones electrostáticas entre los iones con carga opuesta forman enlaces iónicos. La habilidad de los elementos para formar compuestos contribuye a la gran diversidad de materia que existe en la naturaleza.

moléculas y compuestos

<h4>Átomos y moléculas </h4>
 
 Todo en el universo está compuesto de materia y la materia está compuesta de una combinación de elementos. Un átomo es la unidad más pequeña de un elemento que retiene todas las propiedades del elemento. Por ejemplo, una moneda de plata se compone de átomos de plata y cada átomo de plata conserva las propiedades únicas del elemento — La plata. 
 
 Los elementos son sustancias puras, consisten en átomos idénticos que no pueden ser descompuestos en sustancias más simples por cambios químicos. Los elementos atómicos contienen átomos únicos como su unidad básica. El carbono está compuesto por átomos de carbono y el sodio está compuesto por átomos de sodio. La mayoría de los elementos son elementos atómicos. Sin embargo, hay algunos elementos existen como una combinación de átomos y nunca se encuentran en la naturaleza como átomos únicos. Estos se llaman elementos moleculares. Los elementos moleculares existen como moléculas de dos o más átomos unidos. Pueden ser diatómicos, como el hidrógeno (H2), el oxígeno (O2), o el gas cloro (Cl2), o poliatómicos, como el azufre (S8) y el fósforo (P4). 
 
 Una molécula consiste en dos o más átomos unidos por fuerzas resistentes llamadas enlaces químicos. Una molécula puede consistir en dos o más átomos idénticos, o puede consistir en dos o más átomos diferentes.  Cuando la molécula consiste en átomos de dos o más elementos diferentes que se combinan en proporciones fijas de números enteros, la molécula es también un compuesto. Por ejemplo, el agua es un compuesto y cada molécula de agua (H2O) es una unidad que contiene dos átomos de hidrógeno y un átomo de oxígeno.  La molécula de glucosa (C6H12O6) es también un compuesto que contiene seis átomos de carbono, doce átomos de hidrógeno y seis átomos de oxígeno. 
 
 Los compuestos son sustancias puras compuestas de dos o más elementos en proporciones fijas y definidas. Los compuestos se clasifican como moleculares o iónicos basados en los enlaces presentes. 
 
 <h4>Compuestos</h4>
 
 La naturaleza de las fuerzas atrayentes que mantienen a los átomos juntos dentro de un compuesto define el tipo de enlace químico formado. La transferencia completa de electrones entre un átomo de un metal y un átomo no metálico resulta en la formación de iones con cargas opuestas. La atracción electrostática entre los iones se llama enlace iónico y los compuestos formados a través de enlaces iónicos son compuestos iónicos. Por ejemplo, el cloruro de sodio NaCl es un compuesto iónico.
 
 El intercambio de electrones entre dos o más átomos no metálicos resulta en enlaces covalentes y los compuestos formados a través de enlaces covalentes se llaman compuestos covalentes o moleculares. Los enlaces covalentes son las fuerzas de atracción entre los núcleos cargados positivamente de los átomos enlazados y los electrones cargados negativamente compartidos entre los átomos.

KEY TERMS AND CONCEPTS

TÉRMINOS Y CONCEPTOS CLAVE

atomic elements, molecules, and bonds

Matter is made of elements, and elements are built from atoms. An atom is the smallest unit of an element that still keeps that element’s properties. A silver coin, for example, is made of silver atoms. Each atom keeps the unique properties of silver.

Elements are pure substances made of identical atoms. They cannot be broken down into simpler substances by chemical changes. Most elements are atomic elements, which use single atoms as their basic unit. Carbon and sodium are examples of atomic elements.

Some elements do not occur as single atoms in nature. These are called molecular elements. They exist as molecules made of two or more bonded atoms. Some are diatomic, such as hydrogen (H2), oxygen (O2), and chlorine (Cl2). Others are polyatomic, such as sulfur (S8) and phosphorous (P4).

A molecule is a group of two or more atoms joined by strong chemical bonds. The atoms in a molecule may be the same, or they may be different. When a molecule contains atoms from two or more different elements in fixed whole number ratios, it is also a compound. Water is a compound, and each H2O molecule has two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. Glucose (C6H12O6) is another compound, with six carbon atoms, twelve hydrogen atoms, and six oxygen atoms.

Compounds are pure substances made of two or more elements in fixed, definite proportions. They are classified as molecular or ionic based on the bonds they contain. The kind of attraction between atoms determines the bond type. When electrons transfer completely from a metal atom to a nonmetal atom, oppositely charged ions form. The electrostatic attraction between those ions is an ionic bond, and the result is an ionic compound such as sodium chloride (NaCl). When two or more nonmetal atoms share electrons, they form covalent bonds. Compounds formed this way are covalent, or molecular, compounds.

molecular models

Molecular Model Types in Chemistry

Molecular models help chemists and students visualize the structures and shapes of atoms and molecules. They represent the molecular architecture of chemical compounds in a way that is easier to study than formulas alone. Skeletal models are simple two-dimensional drawings of compounds. They show the molecular framework, or the bonds, without drawing every atom. In this model, many carbon and hydrogen atoms are not shown directly. Their positions are implied by the ends and junctions of the...

organic compounds

Organic Molecules in Everyday Chemistry

Organic molecules are carbon-based compounds found in living things and in many everyday products. Most organic compounds have carbon as the main element, bonded to hydrogen and other carbon atoms. Some carbon-containing substances, such as carbonates, cyanides, and simple oxides like CO and CO2, are not classified as organic. Carbon can form up to four strong bonds, which helps explain why organic compounds can make chains and rings of many sizes and shapes. These molecules appear in...

formula mass and mole concepts of compounds

formula-mass-and-mole-concepts-of-compounds

Chemical Formula Mass and Percent Composition

Chemical formula mass and percent composition help describe the makeup of compounds. A chemical formula shows which atoms are present and how many of each atom appear in a substance. For covalent compounds, the formula shows the atoms in one molecule. That is why formula mass can also be called molecular mass. Chloroform, CHCl3, is one example. Its formula shows one carbon atom, one hydrogen atom, and three chlorine atoms. The molecular mass is the sum of their average atomic masses. Ionic...

experimental determination of chemical formula

experimental-determination-of-chemical-formula

Finding Empirical and Molecular Formulas

Chemical formulas show the elemental makeup of a compound. When a formula is unknown, scientists often start by measuring the masses of the elements in the sample. Those mass data are then used to find the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms, which gives the empirical formula. To get from mass to atom ratio, the masses of the elements are first converted to moles using molar masses. Chemical formulas describe numbers of atoms, not masses, so this step is necessary. In one example, 1.71 grams...

chemical equations

Reading Chemical Equations and Balancing Them

Chemical equations show the identities and relative amounts of substances in a chemical reaction. The substances that react are called reactants, and their formulas are written on the left side of the equation. The substances formed are called products, and their formulas are written on the right side. A plus sign (+) separates formulas on the same side, and an arrow (→) shows the change from reactants to products. The numbers in a chemical equation are shown with coefficients. A coefficient...
