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

Biology

exis [7]3 years ago

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.

The law of conservation of mass states that atoms cannot be created not destroyed, so they could not have destroyed it. This means that the experiment had to be open (which means there is no barrier that keeps all the solution in, like a plug or a bag). When the liquid in the equation turned into gas, the gas floated away from the solution, making the ending mass smaller than the beginning.
