Abstract
Everything in the Universe is made from matter, which exists in liquid, solid, or gaseous forms. In this book, part of a new series that introduces the essentials of chemistry, the detailed structure and properties of atoms (the building blocks of matter) are described, including how they bond to produce various types of molecules. Numerous explanatory diagrams, detailed features, and key “Science Words” enhance understanding of the basic science principles, and “Try This” panels outline experiments that can be undertaken as a first step to practical investigations.
