Compare and contrast elements and compunds

Chemistry
1 answer:
Firdavs [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The similarity is that Elements and Compunds exist in stable form because of the bonds formed between their atoms. The difference is that an element is a material that consists of a single type of atom and a compound consists of two or more types of elements held together by covalent or ionic bonds.

stepladder [879]

Answer:

Explanation:

THE PHOTOCHEMICAL(LIGHT) REACTIONS :This is a phase of photosynthesis where sunlight is used as a source of energy to manufacture two chemical compounds which are "Reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate"-NADPH and "Adenosine triphosphate"-ATP.This phase of photosynthesis involves 4 steps or reactions which are :

STEP 1 : Activation or Energization of chlorophyll - In this reaction,chlorophyll molecules in green algae or plants absorb sunlight and become activated,that is the electrons of the chlorophyll molecule acquire solar energy and become excited.

STEP 2 : PHOTOLYSIS OF WATER - Here the energy absorbed by the chlorophyll molecules are used to split water molecules into H+ ions and OH-- ions.

STEP 3:Formation of NADPH -The hydrogen ions (H+) produced reacts with an NADP ( an electron carrier in the chlorophyll) to form NADPH.

STEP 4: FORMATION OF ATP - The high energy generated from the electron transfer process or chain is used to add a phosphate group to ADP (Adenosine dphosphate) to form ATP.

DARK PHASE :In this phase of photosynthesis,the NADPH generated in the light phase is used as a reducing equivalent to reduce CO2 to form Glucose (food) using the ATP generated as a source of energy.

How do neutral metal atoms form ions?​
stira [4]

Answer:

Neutral atoms can be turned into positively charged ions by removing one or more electrons. ... Atoms that gain extra electrons become negatively charged. A neutral chlorine atom, for example, contains 17 protons and 17 electrons. By adding one more electron we get a negatively charged Cl- ion with a net charge of -1.

The crack shown in the lithosphere was created by the movement of two or more tectonic plates. What is this crack called
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

The lithosphere is made up of pieces of tectonic plates. These plates are constantly changing and move towards the mantle. Non-stop movement of tectonic plates causes stress on the earth's outermost layer i.e,the crust. When these stresses extends it leads to cause cracks called faults.

You have an atom represented by X (not real by the way). X has 2 valence electrons. You have another atom Y that has 5 valence e
BabaBlast [244]

The chemical formula : X₃Y₂

<h3>Further explanation  </h3>

The noble gas element is a stable class of elements. The noble gas element is monatomic. Stability of noble gases is caused by an electron configuration that has a stable configuration of 8 (has 8 valence electrons) except He with a duplet configuration (has 2 valence electrons)

Other elements that do not yet have electron configurations such as noble gases will try to achieve their stability by forming bonds between elements.

This is generally called the octet rule

X has 2 valence electrons.to achieve stability, element X will release 2 electrons to form X²⁺

Y has 5 valence electrons, to achieve stability, the element Y will attract/ add electrons to form Y³⁻

The two compounds will form a compound with the charges crossed : X₃Y₂
