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.

Water moves from — to —
denis-greek [22]

The water, or hydrologic, cycle describes the pilgrimage of water as water molecules make their way from the Earth's surface to the atmosphere and back again, in some cases to below the surface. ... Earth's water continuously moves through the atmosphere, into and out of the oceans, over the land surface, and underground.
