COMPOUNDS

Elements are made up of one kind of atoms.

Compounds are made up of two or more kinds of atoms.

Elements cannot be broken down into simpler substances by any physical or chemical method.

Compounds can be broken down into simpler substances by chemical methods.

Elements have their own set of properties.

Properties of a compound differ from those of their elements.

Examples: Hydrogen, Oxygen

The equation shows lead reacting with sulfuric acid to produce lead sulfate and hydrogen gas.

timofeeve [1]

This equation represents a single replacement reaction. Single replacement reactions consist of one element reacting with one compound on the reactant side (left side of the equation) and they form one new element and one new compound on the product side of the equation (right side).

Given that a 12.00 g milk chocolate bar contains 8.000 g of sugar, calculate the percentage of sugar present in 12.00 g of milk

neonofarm [45]

So in order for us to know the percentage of sugar present in a 12.00 g of milk chocolate, what we are going to do is that, we just have to divide 8 by 12 and multiply in by 100 and we get 66.67. Therefore, the percentage of sugar present in 12.00 g of milk chocolate bar is 66.67%. Hope this answers your question. Have a great day!

To which period does an element belong if it has its 3d orbitals filled

swat32

fourth period

The third period is similar to the second, except the 3s and 3p sublevels are being filled. Because the 3d sublevel does not fill until after the 4s sublevel, the fourth period contains 18 elements, due to the 10 additional electrons that can be accommodated by the 3d orbitals.

How do you know what numbers in a chemical formula are significant

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

All the numbers in a chemical formula are significant, It is because the numbers in a chemical formula denote the number of different atoms present in the particular compound.

For example in H2SO4 there are 2 H 1 S and 4 O. This means 1 H2SO4 has 2 hydrogen 1 sulphur and 4 oxygen.
