Because the elements can combine in many ways to form compounds, and compounds can be mixed in many differed ways. Moreover, some elements occur in different forms.
The elements carbon and hydrogen alone combine for form thousands of compounds.
What else can I help you with?
Which materials are made of more than one element?
Particles
Is there more compound than elements?
No, there are more elements than compounds. Elements are the building blocks of compounds, which are formed when elements combine in specific ratios. The vast majority of matter in the universe is made up of elements.
Is the far few materials are elements than are not elements?
The far fewer materials are elements than are not elements. Elements are pure substances made up of only one type of atom, while most materials are combinations of different elements (compounds) or mixtures of elements and compounds. There are 118 known elements, but an infinite number of possible combinations of those elements.
Is there more compoundsor more elements?
There are far more compounds than elements: Fewer than 200 elements and many million distinct compounds.
Elements with more than 92 protons are called?
Elements with more than 92 protons are called Transuranic elements.
Are elements materials made of two or more types of atom?
If we don't consider the isotopes chemical elements have identical atoms.
Why are thre more compounds than elements?
compounds are combinations of elements, thus there can be more varieties/combos
Which elements are more electrapositive than silver?
Elements from the groups 1-10.
Are most elements on the periodic table nonmetals?
No, more than three-fourths of the elements are metals. Love, Grahamcracker
Are there more elements or more non-elements?
There are more non-elements than elements. Elements are substances that cannot be broken down into simpler substances by chemical means, while non-elements can encompass a wide range of substances such as compounds, mixtures, and other forms of matter that are not elements.
Is it true that More than 100 elements are currently known?
There are 92 natural elements, but there are more than 100 elements if included synthetic ones.
Why is there more compounds than elements?
its the same like there are more words than letters and combo is more than none
