What else can I help you with?
Do apples contain carbon compounds?
Oh yes, apples are composed mostly of compounds that include the element carbon. All biology is based on carbon compounds.
Are diamonds compounds or are they a single element?
Diamonds are single-element minerals composed entirely of carbon atoms.
What is the most important periodic element and why?
carbon because all organic compounds are composed of it
Are atoms a compound?
Atoms are elements, not compounds. Compounds are composed of two or more different atoms. For example, the element carbon, with the symbol C, is composed of atoms. If you combine carbon and oxygen to make carbon dioxide (CO2) then you have a compound, composed of molecules, each of which have 3 atoms, one carbon and two oxygen.
What element is in cabbage?
Cabbage is composed of many elements, one of which being Carbon. Carbon is found in all living things/organic compounds.
What element is composed of diamond?
You misunderstand. The question should read 'From which element is diamond formed'. The answerr is 'Carbon'. Diamond is an ALLOTROPE of carbon . An allotrope of an element is where it displays different physical characteristics. In the case of diamond, any one carbon atom is combined to four adjacent carbon atoms, in a tetrahedral arrangement (like methane). This tetrahedral arrangement of carbon atoms tesselates to form the 'adamantine' structure, which becomes so large that it forms the mineral 'diamond', which you can hold. The other allotropes of carbon are graphite and Buckminster Fullerene(Footballene). NB Do NOT confuse the words 'Allotrope' with 'Isotope', they have two different menaings.
Do organic molecules have to contain the element calcium?
No, organic molecules do not have to contain calcium. Organic molecules are compounds primarily composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Calcium is an inorganic element and is not typically found in organic molecules.
Is carbon part of all organic compounds?
No. Carbon is an element and on its own isn't organic.
What is the Compounds that are built around the element carbon?
Compounds built around the element carbon are called organic compounds. Carbon is unique in its ability to form long chains and complex structures, making it the basis for life on Earth. Examples of organic compounds include carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids.
What element do organic compounds always contain?
Organic compounds always contain the element carbon.
What element is commonly used when forming long chains of atoms?
Carbon, these are called organic compounds.
Carbon is pure substance or not?
Carbon is the name of an element. It is important as an element and in chemical compounds. Pure comes in several forms, as soot, as graphite, as coal, as a diamond, as a bucky ball, or as a nanotube. Carbon comes as inorganic compounds such as Carbon dioxidegas. Most carbon comes in the form of organic compounds such as food or the clothes that you wear.
