How do you identify the difference between elements mixtures and compounds from their names and formulas?
Elements have names from the periodic table. Names of compounds takes parts of at least 4 chapters in a beginning chemistry textbook. Learning these is not a simple paragraph answer. The same for their formulas. Mixtures are generally named from their contents.
Can compounds be physically separated?
it depends on wht compound it its
Do all compounds contain at least one element?
A compound consists of at least two elements chemically bonded together.
What are three elements whose atoms are likely to form bonds?
Helium, neon and argon are the least likely elements to form compounds.
Which elements are not likely to bond with other elements?
Helium, neon and argon are the least likely elements to form compounds.
What is the same between compounds and mixtures?
Compounds are chemically mixed. You can't see the ingredients, elements, etc. in compounds. Compounds make a new thing. Compounds can't be separted easily. Compounds can't contain mixtures. Mixtures are not chemically mixed. You can see the ingredients, elements, etc. in the mixture. Mixtures don't create anything new. Mixtures can be separated easliy. Mixtures can contain compounds. Both mixtures and compounds are mixes of things. Both mixtures and compounds contain 2 or more elements, ingredients, etc. Hope I helped!

How are mixtures and compounds a like?
Both contain at least two distinct kinds of atoms.
Are mixtures and compounds a like?
Both contain at least two distinct kinds of atoms.
Can compounds be further divided?
Yes. By definition, compounds contain at least two distinct elements and can be separated into these elements.
Can compounds be physically separated?
it depends on wht compound it its
Are elements denser than compounds?
Elements are often denser than compounds, but not always. In fact the least dense substance known is hydrogen, which is an element.
Is All ionic compounds include at least two elements true?
Yes. All chemical compounds, ionic and covalent, contain 2 or more elements.
What is the basic building block of all the compounds?
The basic building block of all compounds is atoms. Compounds contain atoms of at least two different elements bonded to one another. Thus, atoms of elements are what form compounds.
Can atoms of different elements combine to form a compound?
Yes: compounds have to consist of at least two different elements.
What is the smallest number of elements needed to make a element?
It is 2. Compounds consist of at least 2 elements.
What are the inorganic elements?
All elements other than carbon are likely to form inorganic compounds, and even carbon is at least sometimes found in inorganic compounds such as calcium carbonate.
