Atomic Structure (From page 6)

Atoms consist of nucleus & surrounding electrons
Nucleus contains protons (positive) and neutrons (neutral)
Electrons are negatively charged and orbit the nucleus in shells
Valence electrons are outermost electrons that determine chemical and physical properties

Atomic Bonds (From page 7)

Covalent: Electrons are shared between atoms, determines high strength/hardness, high heat resistance, and insulation properties.
Ionic: Electrons are transferred, creating ions which attract each other, results in high strength/hardness, high heat resistance, and electrical conductivity in solution.
Metallic: Loosely held valence electrons form a "cloud" around metal atoms allowing for good heat and electrical conductivity, malleability, and luster.
