An atom is a chemical species comprising a central positively charged nucleus surrounded by one or more negatively charged electrons. A covalent bond is a chemical bond which involves the sharing of electrons between neighbouring atoms. An ion is a charged chemical species; the charge may be either positive or negative. A cation is a positively charged chemical species. An anion is a negatively charged chemical species. An element is a chemical species comprised of only a single type of atom. A compound is a chemical species comp rised of two or more elements in a definite and unchanging proportion. A chemical formula is a formula written using chemical symbols and subscripts that describes the composition of a chemical compound or element.
