Molecules (hardcover) - Hardcover

by Rebecca Woodbury M. Ed (Author)

In the Molecules reader, fundamental chemistry concepts are explained through easily understood text and colorful, fun illustrations. Children discover that atoms and molecules make up everything we see, touch, taste, and smell. Atoms are like tiny building blocks and have linking electrons that can make molecules by forming bonds. Different atoms have different numbers of linking electrons and must follow rules to join together. The molecules formed vary in size from very small to very big depending on the number of atoms contained. Examples are given of atoms following rules to make different molecules.
