Can a element be broken down into compounds?
Elements cannot be broken down into compounds because elements are the simplest form of matter and are made up of only one type of atom. Compounds, on the other hand, are made up of two or more different types of atoms chemically bonded together.
He said that compounds are formed when atoms of different elements combine?
Yes, compounds are formed when atoms of different elements chemically bond together. This bonding involves the sharing or transfer of electrons between the different atoms to achieve a more stable configuration. The resulting compound often exhibits different physical and chemical properties compared to its constituent elements.
Are hydrogen bonds temporary or permanent?
Hydrogen bonds are temporary interactions between hydrogen atoms and other electronegative elements like oxygen or nitrogen. They are not permanent bonds like covalent bonds, and can be easily broken and reformed.
Are molecules made up of atoms or combined elements?
Yes, atoms make up almost everything, they can only be broken down into protons, neutrons and electrons. An element is a substance found on the periodic table with certain rules and regulations given to each element. An element is made up only of atoms. A compound is a mixture of two or more elements that can be broken down into elements again, it is not a pure substance as such. So a compound is made up of elements, elements are made of atoms.
What are atoms called which cannot be chemically broken down?
Elements are substances made of identical atoms which cannot be broken down to other substances. Matter is anything that occupies space and has mass.
What the elements formed after atoms have broken down and reformed?
radioactive decay
What is the element formed after atoms have broken down and reformed?
Chemical reaction
What is the matter from which the elements were formed?
Elements are formed from atoms. Atoms are formed of protons, neutrons, and electrons (sub-atomic particles).
Water is a because it is formed from atoms of two elements?
Water is a COMPOUND because it is formed from atoms of two elements.
According to Dalton's postulate how do atoms relate to elements?
Elements are formed from atoms.
Can atoms be broken down into different elements?
No.
What is formed or broken in a chemical reaction?
Some bonds between atoms are broken and new bonds are formed.
Can a element be broken down into compounds?
Elements cannot be broken down into compounds because elements are the simplest form of matter and are made up of only one type of atom. Compounds, on the other hand, are made up of two or more different types of atoms chemically bonded together.
What is formed when atoms of two or more elements are linked together?
A molecule is formed
What can a molecule be broken down into?
Atoms or elements. These can be broken down further into protons, neutrons, and electrons.
What is formed when atoms of different elements combine?
All the compounds existing in the universe are formed.
What happens to atoms when chemical reaction occurs?
An atom is a particle which makes up an element. When an atom reacts with another atom, they create a chemical bond. When this happens, the elements made from these atoms make a compound. Example: 2 Hydrogen atoms + 1 Oxygen atom ---> water (H2O)
