Why do sodium and chlorine have such different properties when they exist as elements from when they exist as the compound sodium chloride?
Because the ionic bonds cause the molocules to stablize and become less volatile.
What are large molocules made up of smaller molocules called?
Compound!
What is the difference in silicates such as asbestos mica and quartz?
The difference is in their chemical composition and crystal structure which gives them different properties.
In an organic compound which parts largely determine its physical and chemical properties?
The part of the organic molecule that gives it its chemical and physical properties is called the functional group. Different functional groups will perform different functions.
How the elements of isotopes are alike and how they are different?
Elements can exist in the form of different isotopes. Isotopes of the same element have the same number of protons in their nuclei but have different numbers of neutrons. The first gives them the same atomic number and chemical properties while the second gives them different atomic weights.
What element do organic olecules always contain?
organic molocules always contain carbon. In fact organic chemistry is simply the study of the carbon atomin molocules.
What does the statement the properties of salt are different from the properties of the elements that make them mean?
he properties of salts are different from the properties of elements that go into making them
Do compounds of different elements have similar properties?
Generally the properties are different.
When Measured properties that have different values at different times are?
measured properties that have different values at different time are
Why do carbon dioxide and diamond both have different properties?
Different names, different elements, different properties.
Material having different properties in different direction?
anisotropic materials have different properties in different directions.
What atmospheres has almost no molocules?
