What is an accurate comparison of the compounds and properties of the element that the compounds contain?
They are different
What atom apart from carbon can an organic compound contain?
Organic compounds can contain any element, as long as they bond on the sides of the carbon backbone of the molecule.
What element forms 5 different binary compounds with oxygen?
nitrogen
Which element is called wonder element?
Carbon is called the wonder element as it is capable of forming a large number of and different type of compounds.
How can two coumpounds made from the same element be so different?
Because the proportions of the elements are different in the different compounds. They may contain the same elements, but the different proportions make them different compounds with different properties.
What is an accurate comparison of the compounds and properties of the element that the compounds contain?
They are different
What is the difference of a element and a compounds?
An element is composed of only one type of atom. Compounds are composed of different types of atoms (different elements) that are chemically combined.
Is red paint a element compound or mixture?
Red paint is made by mxing different types of elements and compounds. So it it not an element. It is a mixture of compounds.
What atom apart from carbon can an organic compound contain?
Organic compounds can contain any element, as long as they bond on the sides of the carbon backbone of the molecule.
Can all elements form compounds?
Compounds are combinations of elements. They are different from molecules in the fact that Compounds cannot be a combination of the same element ( O2 ) instead compounds are combinations of different elements ( CO2 )
What element forms 5 different binary compounds with oxygen?
nitrogen
Which element is called wonder element?
Carbon is called the wonder element as it is capable of forming a large number of and different type of compounds.
Is pure acid an element?
No. There are many different types of acid, all of which are compounds.
What type of bonding is hg?
Hg (Mercury) is an element, not a bond. It can bond with other elements in different way to form compounds.
How can two coumpounds made from the same element be so different?
Because the proportions of the elements are different in the different compounds. They may contain the same elements, but the different proportions make them different compounds with different properties.
Is fertilizer a compound or a mixture or an element?
Usually a mixture but can be a compound.Most fertilizers are mixtures of different compounds. Some are only compounds.
Why are their more compounds then elements?
Compounds constructed from element. Just for Carbon and Hydrogen element it could make bazillion of compound. We have 110 different type of building block and imagine how many way we can combine these 110 element to compound.
