How is methanol different from methanal?
Methanol is an alcohol with the formula CH3OH often simplified to COH4. Its structure consists of a carbon atom bonded to three hydrogen atoms and a hydroxy (OH) group. Methanal, more commonly called formaldehyde, is an aldehyde with the formula CH2O. It consists of a carbon atom bonded to two hydrogen atoms and double-bonded to an oxygen atom.
What is the difference between hydrogen peroxide and benzoyle peroxide?
Hydrogen peroxide is a simple inorganic compound with the formula H2O2. It cosists of two oxygen atoms covalently bonded to each other (thus qualifying it as a peroxide). Each oxygen atom is also bonded to a hydrogen atom. It is commonly used to disinfect wounds. Benzoyl peroxide is a more complex, organic compound with the molecular formula C14 H10O4. Like hydrogen peroxide it has two oxygen atoms covalently bonded to one another. Instead of hydrogen, each oxygen atom in the peroxide group is bonded to a carbon atom which is then double-bonded to another oxygen atom (forming a carbonyl group) and a six-carbon ring called a benzene ring. It is commonly used in making polymers and in treating acne.
What is the name of more than one atoms joined together?
Two or more atoms of different elements joined together form a compound. If it is a metal and non-metal (for example sodium and chlorine), they are ionically bonded. If it is two non-metals (for example methane is carbon and hydrogen), they are covalently bonded.
Is oxygen a chemical compound?
Compounds are molecules of more than one kind of atom. Oxygen is a diatomic molecule, therefore not a compound. Further, organic compounds are molecules that contain carbon covalently bonded to another element. Typically, organic compounds contain carbon and hydrogen bonded together.
What are two atoms that are covalently bonded?
One example is oxygen O2 it's called a diatomic molecule
Is carbon dioxide made of molecules?
Carbon dioxide is a molecule that is made of atoms. A carbon atom is double bonded to two oxygen atoms to make a CO2 molecule.
When atoms of the same element bond together what is that called?
The same atoms bonded together are elements. Different atoms bonded together are compounds. Oxygen gas, O2, is an element composed of molecules of two oxygen atoms covalently bonded. Water, H2O is a molecular compound composed of two hydrogen and one oxygen atoms covalently bonded. Common table salt, NaCl, is an ionic compound composed of sodium and chloride ions ionically bonded.
What is the form of oxygen that combines three oxygen atoms into each molecule is called?
O3 is known as trioxygen, or ozone. It is made up of 3 Oxygen atoms bonded together.
Where does carbon in a tree come from?
Photosynthesis takes energy from sunlight, carbon from atmospheric carbon dioxide, and hydrogen and oxygen from water molecules to form carbohydrates, most commonly molecules of the sugar, used in plants largely for structural support, Glucose. The polymer of Glucose in plants is called cellulose, and the polymer of Glucose in animals is called glycogen. They differ only in the way the Glucose monomers are bonded together.
Is thallium a element or a compound?
element. But most elements can also be compounds. For example, oxygen is the name of an element, but two oxygens bonded together are also called oxygen, and are a compound.
What kind of compound is carbon dioxide?
Carbon dioxide is a compound of carbon and oxygen. It a gas, slightly soluble in water when it forms (the weak) hydro-carbonic acid. When pressurised and cooled its solid state is called 'dry ice'.
Process by which sugar molecules can be bonded together?
Sugar molecules are bonded together by a process called dehydration synthesis.
How is methanol different from methanal?
Methanol is an alcohol with the formula CH3OH often simplified to COH4. Its structure consists of a carbon atom bonded to three hydrogen atoms and a hydroxy (OH) group. Methanal, more commonly called formaldehyde, is an aldehyde with the formula CH2O. It consists of a carbon atom bonded to two hydrogen atoms and double-bonded to an oxygen atom.
What two of the same atoms bonded together called?
two of the same elements bonded togather are called what ?
Can carbon atoms join with oxygen to make a gas called carbon trioxide?
Carbon atoms join with oxygen to make a gas called carbon trioxide.
What is the best name for atoms of two different elements that are bonded together?
2 different Elements chemically bonded together is called a Compound.
