Molecules -
Molecule is made up of more than 1 atom or group of atoms chemically combined with one another .
It is capable of independent existence and is of two types :-
Molecules of elements .
Ex :- O2 , H2O
Molecules of compounds .
Ex :- Nacl , Hcl
Ions -
Ions are the negatively or positively charged atoms. They are monoatomic ions or polyatomic ions.
Negatively charged ions are known as Anions.
Positively charged ions are known as Cations.
Ex :- sodium ion Na+ , chloride ion cl- , and oxide ion O2 -.
Atomicity -
The number of atoms in an element or compound is known as its atomicity.
Hence , elements are monoatomic , diatomic ,triatomic , polyatomic etc.
