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.
What part of compound microscope magnifies object?
The part of a compound microscope that magnifies an object is called a the ocular. An ocular is the exact same thing as an eye piece lens.
What is the function of organic molecules in unicellular organisms?
Organic molecules are the part of life we are living in earth... it is common for all level of organisms on earth.
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
Part of a compound that hardens around protein fibers?
miculac
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 the compond NH4 organic or inorganic?
NH4 is not a compound. It is an organic part of a compound which could be organic or inorganic.
Is it true that the elements that make up a compound are always present in the same proportions?
Yes: That relationship is part of the definition of a compound.
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
Is glycerin part of the periodic table?
Glycerol is an organic 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
Differentiate of organic and inorganic compounds?
An organic compound is something that is alive, or was once alive, or was part of something that was living. Inorganic means that it was never alive, or was never a part of something alive.Example:Steak: Organic.Boiling hot lava: Inorganic.
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.
