An introduction to the noble gases shows how full electron shells on an atom makes an element unreactive. Your class will then develop an understanding of how sodium and chlorine react ideally because of their electron arrangement....

All different types of bonding are covered in this PowerPoint, along with details of resulting bond and molecule shapes. The definitions of traditional molecule shapes and characteristics of behavior are very useful to assist in...

After studying the different aspects of atoms and their reactivity, pupils will find this summary PowerPoint useful for review. Some of the slides are informative with labeled diagrams; others give important vocabulary. Teachers may want...

Your young chemists will find these slides very informative. Groups and periods of the periodic table are labeled and described according to the charge. Comprehensive explanations of physical and chemical properties and how they relate...

You may want to make a few changes before sharing this slide show with your chemistry class. For one, remove the bright blue swirly background that makes the black font hard to read. Ionic bonds are described with the use of an electron...

There is not much information in this presentation. It serves more as a guide to direct the flow of your introductory chemistry lecture. Each slide displays a large title and a smaller phrase meant to explain it. For example, one title...

This PowerPoint is a comprehensive review of all the facts related to an atom's basic structure and function. What makes this unique is that it is geared toward an audience of junior geologists. After introducing the periodic table of...

An educational presentation includes atoms, molecules, the four major elements, as well as neutrons and protons. Additionally, slides focus on atomic number, mass number, atomic weight, polar and nonpolar covalent bonding, ionic...

You matter—unless you multiply yourself by the speed of light squared, then you energy! Scholars learn about matter, energy, the elements and so much more using an informative presentation. Completing the included worksheet creates a...

A review of a full unit on energy and matter, this slide show starts with basic definitions of states of matter and their mass. It then develops the ideas of the forces that that matter can exert. Details about bonding within matter and...

You didn't know you'd find moles in chemistry class! Through the introduction of moles and molar volume at STP, classes see how to calculate moles using a given chemical equation. The presentation includes a short review of ions in...

The first golf balls were made of wood and would only last for a few games. Modern golf balls last a lot longer but they don't float. The presentation provides the directions for a lab to determine the minimum amount of salt needed to...

Binary compounds are explained with the periodic table, atomic charges, and examples. Viewers are taught to name binary compounds and then are presented with a chart of cations and ions. Finally, they see a few photos of forms of silicon...

This site gives a brief description of bonding in ionic compounds.

This slide show on atomic bonds contains several slides on electron affinity. Other topics include covalent, Sigma and Pi bonds, and atomic bonding in solids.

This PowerPoint presentation features 33 slides that explain chemical bonding and molecular shape.
