Proton - the part of the atom that carries a positive charge.
Electron - the part of the atom that carries a negative charge.
Ion - an atom that has lost one or more electrons, making it positively or negatively charged (cation), or has gained a few, making it negatively charged (anion).
Molecule - when atoms join together in order to exist, a molecule is formed.
Ionic bond - since atoms are only stable if they have a full set of electrons, they bond with others to form molecules and to stabilize themselves.
