Atom - The basic unit of matter, consisting of a nucleus (protons and neutrons) surrounded by electrons.
Element - A substance made up of only one type of atom. Example: Oxygen (O)
Proton - A subatomic particle with a positive charge found in the nucleus of an atom.
Neutron - A subatomic particle with no charge found in the nucleus of an atom.
Electron - A subatomic particle with a negative charge found orbiting the nucleus of an atom.
Molecule - A group of atoms bonded together. Example: Water (H2O)
Molecular Compound - A compound made up of molecules. Example: Carbon Dioxide (CO2)
Ionic Compound - A compound made up of ions. Example: Sodium Chloride (NaCl)
Chemical - A substance made up of a mixture of atoms, ions, and molecules.
Mechanical mixture - A mixture of two or more substances that are not chemically combined. Example: Trail Mix
Solution - A homogeneous mixture of two or more substances. Example: Saltwater
Suspension - A heterogeneous mixture where the particles settle out over time. Example: Sand and Water

Here is a concept map linking the different terms:
1. Atom: The basic building block of matter.
- Example: Carbon atom
2. Electron: A subatomic particle with a negative charge, orbiting the nucleus.
- Example: The electron cloud in a hydrogen atom.
3. Element: A substance composed of only one type of atom.
- Example: Oxygen gas (O2), composed of two oxygen atoms.
4. Chemical: Relating to or involving substances used in reactions or interactions between elements and compounds.
- Example: Chemical reactions, such as the combination of hydrogen and oxygen to form water.
5. Ionic Compound: A compound composed of positively charged ions (cations) and negatively charged ions (anions).
- Example: Sodium chloride (NaCl), composed of sodium ions and chloride ions.
6. Matter: Anything that has mass and occupies space.
- Example: Water, air, and metals.
7. Mechanical Mixture: A mixture composed of visibly distinguishable substances.
- Example: A salad made up of lettuce, tomatoes, and cucumbers.
8. Molecular Compound: A compound composed of two or more different types of atoms.
- Example: Methane (CH4), composed of one carbon atom and four hydrogen atoms.
9. Molecule: A group of atoms held together by chemical bonds.
- Example: Oxygen molecule (O2), consisting of two oxygen atoms bonded together.
10. Neutron: A subatomic particle with no charge found within the atomic nucleus.
- Example: Neutrons present in the nucleus of an atom of gold (Au).
11. Period: A row in the periodic table that represents elements with similar properties.
- Example: Period 3 includes elements such as sodium (Na), magnesium (Mg), and sulfur (S).
12. Proton: A subatomic particle with a positive charge found within the atomic nucleus.
- Example: Protons present in the nucleus of an atom of hydrogen (H).
13. Pure Substance: A substance made up of only one type of particle.
- Example: Pure gold (Au) or pure water (H2O).
14. Solution: A homogeneous mixture composed of two or more substances.
- Example: Saltwater, a mixture of salt (solute) dissolved in water (solvent).
15. Suspension: A heterogeneous mixture in which particles are dispersed but eventually settle out.
- Example: Orange juice with pulp, where pulp particles are dispersed but will eventually settle at the bottom.
Please note that this concept map can be expanded further, but it provides a basic linkage between the given terms.
