is it possible for two different compounds to be made from the exact same two elements? why or why not? with a limited number of

Yes. The two elements can combine to form different compounds.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Two elements can combine at different ratios.

Consider CO and CO₂. Both are made from carbon and oxygen. However, C and O combine at a 1:1 ratio in CO but at a 1:2 ratio in CO₂. CO is a fuel; it burns in the air. CO₂ does not burn in the air; it is used to put out fires and is found in extinguishers. CO and CO₂ are two distinct compounds.

There are many ways for the elements to combine with each other. As a result, the first twenty elements on the periodic table alone can produce a large number of compounds.

Based on periodic properties, choose the more metallic element from each of the following pairs.
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

Sr is the more metallic element

Bi is the more metallic element

O is the more metallic element

As is the more metallic element

Explanation:

One thing should be clear; metallic character increases down the group but decreases across the period.

Hence, as we move across the period, elements become less metallic. As we move down the group elements become more metallic.

This is the basis upon which decisions were made about the metallic character of each of the elements listed above.
