Why when you mix 2 elements together you can often separate them again quite easily?

Mixtures can be separated easily, liquids by distillation, gases can be made into a liquid , and then heated gently to tap the gases off ( also called distillation) solids are a little more difficult and depend on the mixture.
Compounds are much harder to separate because they are chemically bonded together.They can be separated by electrolysis but this takes a large amount of energy.

Why when we mix two elements together can we often separate them easily again?
We can separate them if they have not reacted together. The elements' atoms are unchanged by simple mixing.
What are some common household items with elements?
Elements can form together to create atoms. Everything is made up of atoms, so technically everything has elements. If you are wondering what household items have chemicals then again the answer is pretty much everything but some example are salt, which is sodium chloride (a compound made of Sodium and Chlorine) or Bleach often containing sodium hypochlorite, hydrogen peroxide, sodium perborate, etc.
What is a ameno acid?
An amino acid is a molecule containing nitrogen, carbon and hydrogen as well as an 'R' group which can contain many different elements. They are often joined together in a polypeptide chain which is then folded into alpha-helix and beta pleated sheet. It is then folded again into the tertiary structure and many of these tertiary structures come together to form proteins like haemoglobin or enzymes.

How light elements and heavy elements formed differently?
The formation of the elements is a nuclear process that usually happens in stars. The core of the star is hot enough and has enough pressure to overcome the electric repulsion of the atomic nuclei and literally fuse the nuclei together. This process happens over and over again, but seems to stop at a certain mass. It appears that elements heavier than iron cannot be formed in the core of a star. These elements require more extreme conditions. The heavier elements on the Periodic Table (after Fe) are formed in supernova. These nuclei require tremendous energy to form, this energy must come from an event as large as a supernova.
How many protons does paper have?
Paper is a compound (def.A thing that is composed of two or more separate elements; a mixture.) so cannot have protons/neutrons/electrons. The pure elements that make up paper CAN have a certain number of protons/neutrons/electrons. Paper is mostly made up of carbon (atomic number 6, atomic mass of 12.0) so carbon has 6 protons. Again, paper itself cannot have protons/neutrons/electrons, you need to break it down until there are elements.

Are lyra and will going to be together again after they separate?
Yes, Lyra and Will are destined to be together again in another world after they separate. The ending of "His Dark Materials" series by Philip Pullman strongly suggests that they will eventually reunite and find happiness together.
What is bench heat?
is it convection. that is when the particles get hot they separate and rise until they get cold again then they go back together and go to the bottom again.
How do you stop dogs that live together fighting when they are fine with other dogs?
you separate them to you think they are ready to be with each ohter again
Is ice cream a compound or a mixture?
Foods and living things are not simple compounds, they are all mixtures, except for table salt.
Can mom and dad and babies be in the cage together?
no the parents and babies could mate together and after a while you will need to separate the female babies from the male babies and posibley the mother and father as they will breed again. however you could keep the mother and the female babies together, but the males will need separating no the parents and babies could mate together and after a while you will need to separate the female babies from the male babies and posibley the mother and father as they will breed again. however you could keep the mother and the female babies together, but the males will need separating no the parents and babies could mate together and after a while you will need to separate the female babies from the male babies and posibley the mother and father as they will breed again. however you could keep the mother and the female babies together, but the males will need separating
Your 2 male gerbils have been fighting for two days you had to separate them because they drew blood Can they live happily separated or should you try to put them back together again?
I don't think it would be a good idea to put them back together again, even though this behavior is strange. Usually, females together would be fighting, but if you put them back together again, they might really hurt each other. So the answer: No. Do not put them back together again. Leave them as they are now.
Why cant you trash everything into the blue bin?
Because the items to be placed in the blue bin are those items that can be recycled (used again). This means you need to separate these items form other items that need to be burnt or placed in land fill because they can not be recycled. If you mixed them up then it would not be able to separate them out again very easily.
How do you learn the electrochemical series easily?
