There are a bit more than 100 elements however there are far, far more than 100 millions compounds, each day more compounds are produced, there are a lot of compounds with unknown structure, not having official names. So the ratio is much bigger than 1 to a million
The number of compounds is very much greater than the number of isotopes, which is greater than the number of elements. The number of distinct kinds of atoms is the same as the number of isotopes.
there are more possible compounds than elements in the world
the number of compounds is greater than the number of elements.. just like the letters of alphabet combine to form words, elements combine to form a large number of compounds
The number of isotopes is greater, because every element has at least one isotope and most elements have more than one.
Neutrons have nothing to do with the reactions; reactions are elements changing configuration (sometimes the amount of compounds goes up, which raises the total number of elements, but the subscript never changes (ie h2o could become 2h2o, but not h3o or h2o2)
It is about half
Only 4 elements account for 5% of the total and the top 8 elements, combined, account for 99.5 percent.
Total sugars are organic compounds. They are made up of elements. Carbon,Hydrogen, and Oxygen. So they are compounds.
nonmetals. Examples include H2O, CO, NH3, SO2.

In terms of the total mass of the universe, it is single elements.
nonmetals. Examples include H2O, CO, NH3, SO2.
119 elements
Strength
Now all the elements from hydrogen to plutonium are considered natural chemical elements - a total of 94 elements.
Elements formed by carbon and hydrogen are called Hydrocarbons. Hydrocarbons have the greatest share in the total number of compounds. Their sudy is called Organic Chemistry. ----- carbon: C hydrogen: H
it is the total number of protons plus the total number of neutrons expressed in atomic mass units
The total mass remain constant.
