The field of Analytical Chemistry allows you to determine what elements are in a substance. Qualitative analysis identifies which elements are present, while quantitative analysis determines the numerical amount or concentration of each of these elements. There are many ways to perform these tests.

Which number in a chemical equation shows you the number of atoms?

The coefficient times the subscripts in a chemical formula show you the number of atoms of each element for each substance in the equation.


What do the lines on a phase diagram represent?

The lines on a phase diagram represent the boundaries between the different phases of a substance (such as solid, liquid, and gas). These lines show the conditions of temperature and pressure at which two phases can exist in equilibrium with each other.


Does the letter Q appear on the periodic table?

Technically yes it does, however it may not in the future. Currently the only element with a Q in its name is Ununquadium. It is the temporary name of a radioactive chemical element in the periodic table that has the temporary symbol Uuq and has the atomic number 114. Recent chemistry experiments have strongly indicated that element 114 appears to behave as the first superheavy element to show noble-gas-like properties due to relativistic effects. In appearance, it is likely a metal, probably silvery white or metallic gray in color.


Which element do all compounds contain?

Bit of a silly question.There is no one specific element that allcompounds contain.Carbon dioxide is a compound containing only carbon and oxygen, and none of the other dozens of known elements. Common salt contains only sodium and chlorine, neither of which is contained in carbon dioxide.Any two examples of compounds with no elements in common iare enough to show that there is no element that must be contained by all compounds.Yawn.Dennis R.


How are subscripts used in a compound?

Subscripts in a compound are used to indicate the number of atoms present for each element in the compound. They show the ratio at which the elements are combined to form the compound. Each subscript number represents the number of atoms of the element that follows it.

Why is Yamato in the show Naruto Shippuden able to use the wood element?

When Orochimaru was still in the village hidden in the leaves (Konoha) he did an experiment on 60 kids and put the first Hokage's DNA into the kids. Since the first Hokage (Shodaime) could use wood element jutsu and his DNA was in Yamato, Yamato could use wood element justsu too. Yamato was the only survivor of the experiments.
