The Chemical Basis of Life ?We are stardust? nasa.gov Students should be able to: Define: element, atom and molecule Name the components of atoms and their physical arrangements. Draw a diagram of an atom, given the atomic number. Distinguish between the types of chemical bonds. Element: a substance that cannot be broken down to other substancesPeriodic Table: organizational chart of all the elements http://www.periodictable.com/ Table 2.1 5 Table 2.1 Elements In the Human Body ATOM: from Greek atomos, ?unable to be cut?
