9. Define the terms Molecule - A group of atoms bonded together, representing the smallest funda-
molecule and mental unit of a chemical compound that can take part in a chemical reaction.

role of elec- or more electrons.
trons in chemical Explain role of electrons in chemical bonding - Electrons play a huge role in
bonding. chemical bonding. One type is electrovalent bonding (ionic), where an electron
from one atom is transferred to another atom. You end up creating two ions as
one atom loses and electron and another one gains one. BASICALLY, chemical
bonding can't happen without electrons.
