The rearranging of atoms to form new combinations is called "chemical reaction", and the "new combinations" are called "compounds.
One of the combinations is a chemical change. The other one is a PHYSICAL change. That is the difference.
Elements and compounds are pure substances. They cannot be broken down further by physical and/or chemical means. Mixtures, on the other hand, are physical combinations of pure substances . A compound is when two or more different types of elements are chemically bonded but a mixture is when there is different types of elements that is not chemically bonded but physically bonded.
- A mixture contain two or more compounds.- A mixture can be separated by physical procedures.
Isosteric compounds have the same number of atoms and/or the same number of valence electrons in total. Their electrons may be arranged in the same way. The physical properties of isosteric compounds are similar but their biological properties may be very different.
In a physical change, the chemical composition of the substance undergoing the change remains the same. In a chemical change, atoms are rearranged, forming new products with their own unique chemical compositions and properties, different from the original substance or substances.
mixtures
Fluorides are a class of compounds. They have very different physical properties.
One of the combinations is a chemical change. The other one is a PHYSICAL change. That is the difference.
In a chemical reaction, atoms are rearranged, such that some atoms get out of some molecules and join other molecules.
No. Compounds have unique chemical and physical properties different from the elements of which they are made.
yes, because compounds can be combined in different ways, (i.e. heat), certain elements or compounds react to different types of bonding.
Measuring the size of the universe is the largest physical measurement attempted. There are computations which go far beyond this. The number of combinations that can make up chemical compounds for instance
Isomers have different structures even though they have same compounds
compounds can be decomposed by physical means.
Elements with same functional group have same chemical properties. They possess different physical properties.

Yes, in chemical reactions the fundamental structure of the molecules (i.e., the arrangement of the atoms) changes. This differs from a physical reaction, in that in a physical reaction, only superficial traits of the substance change. A good rule of thumb for determining whether something is a physical or chemical reaction is that physical reactions are easily reversible (e.g., freezing/melting water), while a chemical reaction is not really reversible (e.g., cooking/uncooking a steak).
