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.

Which category of organisms is least likely to be revised and why?
sasho [114]

In the taxonomic classification of the organism, the species are the categories, which have the most specific traits. In case, a organism is discovered, which has some characteristics similar to any species, then the new organism would be placed in the same genus, but the existing species would not be disturbed. So, the chances of changes in species is least as compared to genus, order, class, phylum and kingdom. So, the species is less likely to be revised.
