What is the ratio of elements in a compound?
The stoichiometry is governed by the laws of definite proportions and multiple proportions.
What is the ratio of phosphorous atoms to oxygen atoms in the compound?
This ratio is different for each compound; for the oxide P4O10 the ratio is 2/5.
Which type of substance is composed of two or more different kinds of elements always in the same ratio?
Two or more different elements that are chemically combined in a definite ratio is a compound. Based on the nature of the bonds, it can be called an ionic compound (i.e. atoms bonded together by ionic bonds) or an molecular compound (i.e. atoms bonded together by covalent bonds).
What tells the ratio of atoms?
the numbers
What is the ratio of hydrogen to oxygen in this sample of four water molecules?
2:1 ratio. There would be eight atoms of hydrogen and four atoms of oxygen.
The ratio in which atoms are blended together in compounds is shown by an?
By the law of definite proportions.
What is the ratio of elements in a compound?
The stoichiometry is governed by the laws of definite proportions and multiple proportions.
Is ratio of atoms is always the same in a compound?
Generally yes (the law of definite proportions); as exceptions - nonstoichiometric compounds.
What has definite ratio of components?
A compound has a definite ratio of components.
When two or more different elements joined together in fixed proportions is known as?
A compound is the pure substance formed from the chemical combination of two or more different elements in a fixed ratio.
How is a molecule?
A molecule is a group of atoms joined together by covalent bonds. If it is a molecule of element , atoms of the same element combine in a definite number . for example: a chlorine molecule Cl2, an oxygen molecule O2, etc. If it is a molecule of a compound , atoms of two or more atoms of different elements combine in a definite ratio. for example: H2O, water, or C6H12O6, glucose. It was formerly defined as the smallest particle of a substance that can exist independently, but in modern usage it is not applied to ionic compounds such as calcium oxide, which are giant assemblies of ions.
What are two or more different atoms are combined in definite proportion?
A simple definition is: a chemical compond has the elemental components in a fixed ratio.
What is the compound ratio of P2O5 of phosphorus atoms to oxygen atoms?
This ratio is 2/5.
What is the ratio of phosphorous atoms to oxygen atoms in the compound?
This ratio is different for each compound; for the oxide P4O10 the ratio is 2/5.
Does metal have a definite ratio of components?
No. The reason depends on the metal. If it is a single metal element then there is only one component, and thus nothing to compare it with in a ratio. If it is an alloy then there are multiple components, but not in a definite ratio.
What is the ratio of potassium atoms to nitrogen?
The chemical formula of potassium nitride is K3N. The ratio potassium atoms/nitrogen atoms is 3.
Which type of substance is composed of two or more different kinds of elements always in the same ratio?
Two or more different elements that are chemically combined in a definite ratio is a compound. Based on the nature of the bonds, it can be called an ionic compound (i.e. atoms bonded together by ionic bonds) or an molecular compound (i.e. atoms bonded together by covalent bonds).
