| Compound | Substance made up of more than one kind of element bonded together chemically. |
| Mixture | More than one kind of element blended together. Not chemically bonded. |
| Bond | Holds two atoms together because of electron sharing or charge. |
| Atom | smallest unit of matter - building block of all matter. |
| Matter | anything that has mass and takes up space. |
| Period | The horizantal rows in the periodic table. |
| Group | The up and down collumns of the periodic table. |
