Because not only one element in a chemical compound counts for the chemical/physical prperties.
Potassium is an element. Elements are pure substances. They don't "contain" anything.
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.
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.
Carbon is the base element for all organic substances. Organic compounds contain carbon-hydrogen bonds and are found in living organisms.
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.
Element are the pure substances that contain atom of same kind. Atoms are fundamental particles of matter.
Calcium is itself an element. Elements do not contain other substances.
Potassium is an element. Elements are pure substances. They don't "contain" anything.
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.
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.
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.
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
They contain only one element.
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.
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.
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.
No
