    This document defines key terms related to atoms, molecules, ions, and compounds. It explains that atoms are the smallest particles that make up elements, and when atoms split they form a different element. It also describes the three main particle types in substances - atoms, molecules, and ions - and how ions become charged. Finally, it provides the symbols for common elements and defines compounds, mixtures, and molecules.
