Answer:

Assuming you mean in a compound of elements: A name is just what you call it, and the chemical formula is what elements it is made of.

Explanation:

Take sodium chloride (Salt) for example. It's name is sodium chloride, but its chemical formula is NaCl. Na= Sodium, and Cl = Chlorine. So one sodium ion and one Chlorine ion create NaCl. Na+Cl=NaCl. And the name for the product of the formula is Sodium Chloride.

Another example is H2O (Water). H=Hydrogen and O=Oxygen. There are 2 hydrogens and one oxygen in H2O. H+H+O=H2O. The name for the formula is water.

Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is the process plants use to convert energy from the sun into usable energy for their cells. Plants use the light energy of the sun, carbon dioxide, and water to make glucose (a sugar), and oxygen. The energy of the sun is captured and stored in the bonds between atoms in glucose molecules.

What happens to the phosphates when plants and animals die?
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

When plants and animals die, organic molecules also undergoes decomposition and this causes the incorporated phosphates to go back to the soil or bodies of water.

Explanation:

Phosphates are naturally related to <u>"phosphorus."</u> <em>They play a vital role in the life of animals and plants. </em>Phosphorus can be commonly be found on the earth's land and water (although the land has a smaller amount of it). <u>Plants naturally absorb phosphate from where they're growing. Animals take up phosphates by eating plants.</u> The phosphate that plants get from the soil are considered inorganic. They only become organic when it is incorporated into the plants DNA (since this is an organic molecule).

So, this means that if there's a sufficient amount of phosphate, there will be more plants on earth as it is also important in the process of acquiring nutrients.

When animals and plants die, all of the organic molecules such as phosphate also breaks down and thus, it falls back to the soil or bodies of water. Then, they are ready to enter another Phosphorus cycle.
