- A compound is two or more elements <u>combined</u> chemically to produce a new substance.
- When two or more elements chemically combine, the compound has new properties, different from the chemical and physical properties of the <u>original</u> elements.
<h3>What is a chemical element?</h3>
A chemical element can be defined as a pure substance which comprises atoms that have the same atomic number (number of protons) in its nuclei and as such it is the primary constituent of matter.
Generally, some examples of a chemical element include the following:
- Argon.
- Sodium.
- Carbon.
- Oxygen.
- Hydrogen.
- Phosphorus
- Copper
- Aluminum
- Potassium
- Magnesium
<h3>What is a pure substance?</h3>
