Elements are substances that are made up of one type of atom they can not be broken down into any other substances, They are a pure material so to speak. Examples include oxygen, carbon, gold. Compounds are made up of 2 or more elements where the atoms are combined to make a new material that usually has different property's from the materials that make them up. Examples of these are Carbon dioxide, hydrochloric acid, water.
Copper, Silver, and Gold occur as elements instead of compounds.
Compounds are formed from elements.
True. Compounds do not have the same properties as the elements that form them.
No, there are more elements than compounds. Elements are the building blocks of compounds, which are formed when elements combine in specific ratios. The vast majority of matter in the universe is made up of elements.
When elements and compounds combine to form new compounds the reaction is described in a chemical equation.
Chemical compounds are formed from chemical elements.
In science, compounds are substances made up of two or more elements chemically bonded together in fixed proportions. These compounds have unique properties different from their component elements.
Elements and compounds
Elements become compounds after chemical reactions.
I am not sure what you mean by 'non elements'.ALL matter is made up of elements - there is no such thing as a 'non element'.Elements can however join up to form compounds and the number of compounds that can be formed far exceeds the number of elements that comprise them.
Elements are single, however compounds are made up of two or more elements.
No. Elements, compounds and mixtures are 3 different terms.
compounds are two or more elements put together
You can find elements and compounds in matter.
Elements and compounds are pure substances. They also can be molecules.
magnesium and oxygen are elements. They are not compounds
Today are known approx. 65.106 chemical compounds.
