What is ionic bonds?
A number tell you how many of each element, chemical group or ion are present in a molecule.
What do subscripts do?
The negatively charge particles found outside the nucleus.
What are electrons?
The group on the periodic table that lacks characteristics of metals.
What are non-metals?
When two or more substances combine to form a single new substance.
