What Compounds are broken down into simpler substances?
Organic compounds such as carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids are broken down into simpler substances through processes like digestion and metabolism. Inorganic compounds such as water and minerals can also be broken down into simpler components through physical or chemical processes.
Compounds are broken down or new compounds are formed in blank?
atoms
Can compounds be broken only by chemical means?
yes, they can only be broken down by chemical means
Can a element be broken down into compounds?
Elements cannot be broken down into compounds because elements are the simplest form of matter and are made up of only one type of atom. Compounds, on the other hand, are made up of two or more different types of atoms chemically bonded together.
What are the differences between atoms and compounds?
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.
Substances that can be broken down into simpler substances are called?
compounds
What are substances that can be broken down into simpler substances?
Chemical compounds.
What are substances that can be broken down to simpler substances?
Chemical compounds.
Can compounds be broken down by ordinary chemical means?
Yes.
How can compounds be broken down into their elements?
Compounds are most notably broken down into their component elements by Electrolysis. But some can be broken by heat and catalyst. More complex compounds can be broken up into simpler compounds for their elements by a decomposition reaction. Example: NaCl---Na and Cl salt sodium and chlorine or C6H12O6---6H2O 6C sugar 6 water molecules and 6 carbon atoms
Elements and compounds cannot be broken down into simpler substances by an ordinary what?
Elements and compounds (pure substances) cannot be broken down by physical changes.
Are compounds the simplest type of substances and cannot be broken down into any other substances?
No: Compounds are simple mixtures of substances
