The acronym CFC means carbon, fluorine and chlorine which makes up the organic compounds for what is also called Freon. Freon is a trademark of the du Pont de Nemours & Company which was originally developed as a refrigerant during the 1930s.

How many elements make up a molecule?

Hannah Peereboom says: that NaCl is salt. 2 atoms make up NaCl, salt, and if salt was composed of more atoms it would end up, as an example, Na2Cl3, 2 sodium atoms and 3 chlorine atoms, or something.It really depends on what the molecule is. Water is made up of two different elements: hydrogen and oxygen. Rubbing alcohol, on the other hand, is made up of three elements: hydrogen, carbon, and oxygen. Amino acids can be made up of as many as 5 elements (like in Methionine or Cysteine). However, you should be able to distinguish how many ATOMS are in a molecule as well. For example, as in water, there are 3 total ATOMS, but 2 different ELEMENTS (2 hydrogen and 1 oxygen). Rubbing alcohol has 12 total atoms, but 3 different elements present (3 carbons, 1 oxygen, and 8 hydrogens).
