When elements combine to form compounds what happens to the properties of the original elements?

Biology
1 answer:
exis [7]3 years ago
3 0
The properties of the original elements are completely changed.

For example, in the compound called "iron(II) sulphide", it is composed of iron and sulphur, that are chemically combined together. The element iron is attracted to magnets. Meanwhile, iron(II) sulphide is not attracted to magnets. 

Another example is where sulphur has a yellow colour, but iron(II) sulphide has a brownish colour. As we can see, even the physical properties (colours) are completely different.

Therefore, the properties of the original elements are completely changed when they're combined into compounds.

Why is it necessary to have a constant input of energy into an ecosystem?
IrinaK [193]
If there was not a constant Input of energy into the ecosystem then nothing would have the power to do anything and nothing would be alive. the energy starts with the sun, then goes to plants, then animals that eat the plants, and then the animals that eat those animals, Ect. if this chain reaction did not happen then the plants wouldn't have to power to go through photosynthesis and then we would get no energy. the amount of energy lessen with every chain that it goes through, this is why we get more energy eating plants and why they are healthier.

If a flood occurs in the natural rubber environment, it will ruin the rubber production process. The flood would damage a huge percentage of rubber trees if there was a large quantity of restriction. This natural rubber is required for the production of synthetic polymers. Without the rubber, there would be a restricted supply and a significant decline in synthetic polymers due to ecological damage caused by the flood.
