The original white solid could be sodium bicarbonate, NaHCO3.
2 NaHCO3 (s) + heat --> Na2CO3 (s) + CO2 (g) + H2O (g)

When elements are joined in a compound do they lose or keep their original properties?
no, it never does.
What is 3 differences between compounds and elements?
An element is only made up of its protons, neutrons and electrons.A compound is made up of elements.A compound can be broken down into to its original elements easier than an element can be broken into its (protons, neutrons and electrons).
What is formed when two or more elements join together chemically?
Atoms cannot be combined chemically. If an atom is combined with another it is fusion. It forms a heavier atom, unique from the original atoms.
How many elements are in a binary compound?
Two: "bi" is a prefix borrowed from Greek or Latin that means 2 in its original language.
What is produced when a carbonate reacts with an acid?
Carbonate is CO3(2-) and will react with acids to give off carbon dioxide (CO2), leaving the acid salt of the original carbonate salt.
What is formed when 2 elements conbine?
A compound. Depending on the elements combined, the compound may or may not have the same characteristics as the original elements.
The properties of a compound are different from the properties of which of these?
original elements
When elements are joined chemically in a compound they?
keep their original properties
When two or more elements chemically combine?
If two elements are chemically combined, they become a compound which will have totally different chemical and physical characteristics than either of the two original elements.
When a compound is created it can be broken down into its original parts. true or false?
The statement is true, if by "original parts" the questioner means "original elements"; this is part of the definition of a compound.
When elements are joined in a compound do they lose or keep their original properties?
no, it never does.
Is it a chemical change when a compound splits into its original elements?
Yes, that would be a decomposition reaction.
Is it easy to spit a compound back up into it's original elements?
No it is not easy and two compound's have atoms which like to say together
Do the elements in a compound retain their original properties?
In most cases, when two elements form a compound, the new compound has a set of chemical properties that are entirely different from its reactants. However, in the case of diatomic compounds, such as O2, then yes, the compound retains the properties of its elemental parts.
Is original a compound word?
No, original is not a compound word.
Water is compound but gold is element?
Water is a compound because it is composed of : hydrogen and oxygen. Each of these elements loses its original properties to form a compound. Gold is an element because it is 100 % gold and found in that form.
