What else can I help you with?
What alkaline earth element formed the smallest number of precipitates?
Beryllium forms the smallest number of precipitates among the alkaline earth elements.
Which is the least in the periodic table of the elements?
Hydrogen is the first, smallest, and lightest element. It is number 1 in the periodic table of elements.
Elements are made of?
Elements are made of atoms. The atom is the smallest single unit that exists in any type of element and their number varies in the elements.
Which elements has the smallest atomic number?
Hydrogen is a non metal element. Atomic number of it is 1.
What is he smallest whole number ratio of the elements in an ionic or covalent compound?
The smallest whole number ratio of elements in an ionic or covalent compound is known as the empirical formula. It represents the simplest ratio of atoms of each element in a compound.
What is an atomic element?
An 'atom' is the smallest unit that ANY element can be divided up into. An 'atom' of silver is the smallest piece of silver that there can be, similarly an 'atom' of oxygen is the smallest bit of oxygen that can be. Thus all elements are made of 'atoms'.
Why is it that fluorine is the smallest element in the periodic table?
The smallest atom in the periodic table is hydrogen, not fluorine.
Which formula of a compound has the smallest whole-number mole ratio of elements?
The compound with the smallest whole-number mole ratio of elements can be determined from its empirical formula, which represents the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms in the compound. To find this, divide each element's molar amount by the smallest molar amount present in the compound.
What is the difference between elements and atoms?
An atom is the smallest piece of an element. Said another way, and element is made up one and only one kind of atoms.
What is the element with the smallest atomic number?
Hydrogen
What is the smallest particle of an element that can exist and still retain the properties of the element?
The smallest particle of an element that can exist and still retain the properties of the element is an atom. Atoms are composed of a nucleus containing protons and neutrons, surrounded by electrons. The number of protons in the nucleus determines the element's identity.
How are atoms and elements relate?
How are elements and atoms related? An element is a substance that contains only a single type of atom. The number of atoms is not important as long as all the atoms are of the same type. You cannot separate an element into other substances..... there are as many elements as atoms - more them 100.
