молекула

The smallest particle of an element or compound that retains the chemical properties of the element or compound. A molecule is a collection of chemically bound atoms with characteristic composition and structure. Making or breaking bonds in a molecule changes it into a new molecule. Ionic compounds are not composed of molecules, because there is no distinct collection of ions that are chemically bound in the crystal.
