What are the different elements that contain the same number of outer electrons as sodium?
All of the elements in group 1 on the periodic table contain the same number of outer electrons as sodium, which is 1.
Oxygen and carbon are defined as different elements because they have atoms with a different?
number of protons
What do most elements contain a mixture of?
Most elements contain a mixture of two or more isotopes.
Two sets that contain the same number of elements are called what?
Dkdk
Is milk made of hydrogen oxygen and calcium?
Milk contains a number of different chemical compounds and a number of different elements making up those compounds. It does contain hydrogen, oxygen, and calcium as you state, but it also contains carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, and smaller amounts of some other elements.
Can to different elements contain the same number of protons?
No, the number of protons defines what element an atom belongs to. If two atoms are of different elements then they have different number of protons.
Why atomic number of different elements are different?
Because different elements have different numbers of protons, which determines the atomic number.
What is the total number of different elements present inNH4NO3?
Ammonium nitrate contain 3 chemical elements.
What are the different elements that contain the same number of outer electrons as sodium?
All of the elements in group 1 on the periodic table contain the same number of outer electrons as sodium, which is 1.
How are elements and compounds the different?
Elements contain only one type of atom (atoms with the same number of protons). Compounds contain more than one element, and thus contain atoms with different numbers of protons. Compounds can be converted into elements, but elements are not reducible to anything simpler (besides subatomic particles).
How is silicon oxide different from its elements?
The number of electrons is different because they are bonded
Oxygen and carbon are defined as different elements because they have atoms with a different?
number of protons
How many elements contain the same number of outer electrons as sodium?
The number of elements that contain the same type of outer electrons as sodium is 11.
Why are elements known as the simplest substance?
Because they contain only one type of atoms (with same number of protons).
Why do different elements give off different energy signals?
Different elements give off different energy signals because each element has a different number of valence electrons.
Do atoms of different elements have a different number of protons?
Yes, atoms of different elements have a different number of protons.
Do all of the same elements have the same atomic number?
All isotopes of an element have the same atomic number because they have the same number of protons. However, they have a different mass because they have a different number of neutrons.
