Yes, only elements cannot be broken down to smaller substances.
In the appropriate situation, all compounds are broken down into simpler substances.
Elements and compounds (pure substances) cannot be broken down by physical changes.
whyMatter can be broken down into Pure Substances and Mixtures. Mixtures can't be broken down by anything, however Pure Substances break down to Elements and Compounds.The mixtures whether it is homogenous or heterogoneous can NOT be broken down and be observed because it is a chemical change not a physical change
This is the compound, which consits of at least two elements.
You misunderstand!!!! a compound is broken down into its elemental atoms.
In the appropriate situation, all compounds are broken down into simpler substances.
compounds
Chemical compounds.
Chemical compounds.
No: Compounds are simple mixtures of substances
Elements and compounds (pure substances) cannot be broken down by physical changes.
Yes they can.
both are pure substances, but atoms represent the smallest bits of elements. compounds are chemically combined atoms, molecules represent the smallest bits of compounds. atoms cannot be broken down into simpler substances, compounds can be broken down into atoms.
None gold is an element which can not be broken down into smaller substances.
decomposition
Compounds are made up of 2 or more elements.Compounds can be broken down into simpler substances by chemical means, but elements cannot.Compounds are made up of 2 or more elements. Compounds can be broken down into simpler substances by chemical means, but elements cannot.
