they sure can. if it is not on the Periodic Table, that means it is not a pure element, so any metals you are wondering about can be looked up on the periodic table to see if they are pure.

Are coins elements or compound?

Coins are made of a combination of elements, typically metals like copper, nickel, and zinc. These metals are mixed together in specific proportions to create the material from which coins are minted. Therefore, coins are not elements themselves but are composed of a mixture of different elements.


Is mixtures a classification of element?

No, elements are the most basic form of a substance, thus mixtures might be made up from different elents but elements can never be made from mixtures.


Are compounds and elements a mixture?

No. Elements, compounds and mixtures are 3 different terms.


Is an alloy a mixture?

Most alloys are usually mixtures, so that'd be your answer.


Different elements are made up of different kinds of?

Elements can be combined in several different ways. Elements which undergo no chemical reactions when combined are called mixtures. Normally, the elements in a mixture retain their original properties, but metals can be combined into mixtures called alloys to produced new properties, though these properties tend to be the intermediate sum of the collective properties of the metals involved. Elements which combine chemically to produce entirely new substances are called chemical compounds.


Is metal a compound element or mixture?

it depends. A lot of metals are elements like iron for example, these can be mixed to form alloys(compounds) steel for example is an aloy of carbon and iron. Metals exist as mixtures when they are found in their ores(mixed with other metals and minerals) and must be separated from their mixtures by smelting.


Why dont compounds differ from mixtures?

Compounds differ from mixtures because compounds have a fixed chemical composition with elements chemically bonded in a specific ratio, while mixtures can vary in composition with no fixed ratio. Compounds have specific properties different from their constituent elements, while mixtures retain the properties of their components.


What are 3 pure elements that are mixtures?

Pure elements cannot be mixtures.


What kinds of bonds can happen between the elements of compound?

Covalent and ionic. (The other major type of bond, metallic, does not occur in compounds but only in elemental metals and in mixtures of metals.)


What are mixtures of metals called?

Mixtures of metals are called alloys. For example, brass is an alloy, a mixture of bronze and copper.


Elements are mixtures of What?

Elements are not mixtures of anything. An element contains only atoms of that elements and nothing else. A compound contains two or more elements which have been chemically combined to create a new substance with different chemical and physical properties to the elements from which it was formed.


5 metals that are pure elements and 3 that are mixtures?

A number of metals were known to ancients because they could be found in their elemental form. We can list gold, copper, silver, lead and tin among the examples of these metals. As regards metals that are mixtures of metals (we call them alloys), brass (a copper and zinc alloy), bronze (a copper and tin alloy), and steel(an iron and carbon alloy) are among the better known.
