Does potassium contain sulfur?
Potassium is an element. Elements are pure substances. They don't "contain" anything.
What is the substance that cannot be broken down into simpler substances with different properties?
An element is a substance that cannot be broken down into simpler substances with different properties. Elements are composed of only one type of atom and are the building blocks of all matter. Examples of elements include oxygen, gold, and carbon.
Which element is found in coal and diamond?
Both coal and diamond contain the element carbon. However, the arrangement of carbon atoms in coal and diamond differs, leading to their vastly different properties.
Which element is the base for all organic substances?
Carbon is the base element for all organic substances. Organic compounds contain carbon-hydrogen bonds and are found in living organisms.
How can two compounds make from the same element be different?
Isomers are compounds that exist in different molecular arrangements of atoms of the same elements and having identical atomic weights. Although isomers of a compound contain the same atoms in their molecules, the atoms are arranged in a different molecular structure and the isomers may differ in their physical, chemical, and biological properties.
Why is an atom different from and element?
Element are the pure substances that contain atom of same kind. Atoms are fundamental particles of matter.
What element has calcium?
Calcium is itself an element. Elements do not contain other substances.
Does potassium contain sulfur?
Potassium is an element. Elements are pure substances. They don't "contain" anything.
Can a element be broken down into substances with different properties?
No. Compounds and mixtures are made of elements and can be broken down, as in table salt which is Sodium Chloride and can be split into sodium and chlorine gas, which are elements that have different properties.
What are the characteristics of a subtances and mixtures?
The components of a mixture are not chemically combined and do not have a definite composition. A pure substance is either an element or a compound (in which case it is composed of elements that are chemically combined) and has a definite composition.
What is the substance that cannot be broken down into simpler substances with different properties?
An element is a substance that cannot be broken down into simpler substances with different properties. Elements are composed of only one type of atom and are the building blocks of all matter. Examples of elements include oxygen, gold, and carbon.
Does lithium contain ethanol?
Question is not clearly stated. Lithium is a mineral (and appears on the Periodic Table of Elements), while Ethanol is alcohol produced by chemical distillation
What are the properties of pure materials?
They contain only one element.
When two or more different elements react together a new type of substance is formed What name is given to substances that contain more than one type of element chemically joined together?
Substances that contain more than one type of element chemically joined together are called compounds. These compounds are formed through chemical reactions between the elements, resulting in a new substance with unique properties distinct from those of the individual elements.
Which element is found in coal and diamond?
Both coal and diamond contain the element carbon. However, the arrangement of carbon atoms in coal and diamond differs, leading to their vastly different properties.
How can two coumpounds made from the same element be so different?
Because the proportions of the elements are different in the different compounds. They may contain the same elements, but the different proportions make them different compounds with different properties.
Can you break an element apart into a different substances?
No
