What part of speech is bionic?
The word "bionic" is an adjective, used to describe something that combines organic and artificial elements, often in reference to technology or prosthetics.
What Organic compound that is used to store energy and forms important parts of biological membranes?
Cell membranes are phospholipids not proteins. Proteins are not used as energy stores by living things. Energy stores are sugars and fats.
Which elements are responsible for the greater part of plant wet weight?
The three main elements that contribute the most to plant wet weight are carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. These elements make up the bulk of organic matter found in plants, such as carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins.
What is the chemical symbol for the naturally occurring elements in humans?
There are probably no elements, beyond the extremely unstable nuclides, that you could not find in the human body at some level.
Give an example of how a functional group can affect the properties of an organic compound?
An atom or group of atoms which gives the specific properties to an organic compound is a functional group or The active part of an organic molecule involved in a chemical reaction is known as the functional group. Examples are, 1-Alcohol R-OH, 2-Carboxylic acid R-COOH, 3-Ether R-O-R, e.t.c
What names the elements that combine to form a compound?
The chemical name of the compound is often based on the names of the elements that are part of it. However, for many simple organic compounds it is not possible to determine the component elements.
Is milk a cpmpound?
Yes. Even more specifically, it is an organic compound. It has calcium which is protein, and that is part of an organic compound.
How do you work out the compound formula?
That really depends upon the compound. Since you have not described the compound in any way, there would be no way to work out the formula. Other than that, you are always guided by the periodic table of elements and your knowledge of the valences of the elements; you should be familiar with common radicals, and with various organic compounds which might be part of a formula. The more you know about chemistry, the better chance you will have of working out a given formula.
What are organic compounds made of?
Organic compounds always contain hydrocarbons (carbon & hydrogen); any other elements in the compound (e.g. oxygen or nitrogen) form the functional group, which is the reactive part of the compound & defines the compounds name.The definition of Organic Chemistry is the chemistry of the compounds of Carbon. This indicates that the most prevalent element in organic compounds is Carbon, yet it is closely bonded with Hydrogen, Oxygen, Nitrogen and Phosphorus, to name but a few.An organic compound is a molecule that contains at least 1 carbon.Atoms. (The answer "carbon" is not necessarily true; carbon tetrachloride is a counterexample.)
What part of the flame identifies the elements in the compound?
the bottom part
Do compounds always contain the same elements in the ratio?
No, compounds do not always contain the same elements in the same ratio. Compounds are formed by the combination of two or more elements in fixed proportions by mass. The ratio of elements in a compound is determined by the chemical formula of the compound.
Is carbon a organic compound in your body?
yes carbon is a part of organic compound. but there are inorganic compounds also containing carbon (such as carbonates, bicarbonates etc).
What of the flame identifies the elements in the compound?
the bottom part
Why do you have to mix a 2 elements to make a compound?
Part of the definition of a compound is that it must contain atoms of at least two distinct elements.
Is C7H6N2 an organic or inorganic compound?
An organic compound will contain Hydrogen and Carbon (sometimes Oxygen) bonds while inorganic compounds don't have either H or C bonds.
Is it true that the elements that make up a compound are always present in the same proportions?
Yes, that is true for compounds with a fixed chemical formula. In a compound, elements combine in specific ratios based on their valencies to form stable structures. This is known as the law of definite proportions.
Does every chemical compound contain atoms of different elements?
Yes; this is part of the definition of a compound.
