- What is acompound? What are compounds composed of? What is true about the composition of a compound, no matter where we happen to find the compound?arrow_forwardTwo basic laws of chemistry are the law of conservation of mass and the law of constant composition. Which of these laws (if any) do the following statements illustrate? (a) Lavoisier found that when mercury(ll) oxide, HgO, decomposes, the total mass of mercury (Hg) and oxygen formed equals the mass of mercury(ll) oxide decomposed. (b) Analysis of the calcium carbonate found in the marble mined in Carrara, Italy, and in the stalactites of the Carlsbad Caverns in New Mexico gives the same value for the percentage of calcium in calcium carbonate. (c) Hydrogen occurs as a mixture of two isotopes, one of which is twice as heavy as the other.arrow_forwardThese questions concern the work of J. J. Thomson: From Thomson’s work, which particles do you think he would feel are most important in the formation of compounds (chemical changes) and why? Of the remaining two subatomic particles, which do you place second in importance for forming compounds and why? Come up with three models that explain Thomson’s findings and evaluate them. To be complete you should include Thomson’s findings.arrow_forward

- Two or more substances in variable proportions, where the composition is constant throughout are a compound. an element. a heterogeneous mixture. a homogeneous mixture. a crystalline solid.arrow_forwardCompounds are composed two or more elements chemically combined while mixture are composed of substances where th components can be separnted. In connection with this, where do you compare your family, to a compound or a mixture? Why?arrow_forwardClassify the statements pertaining to elements and compounds as either true or false. True False Compounds must contain at least [wo elements. Compounds are pure substances whereas elements are mixtures Compounds cannot be broken down further by processes such as filtration. Compounds may be broken down into simpfer substances through: chemical processes. A compound is a physical mixture of simpler substances.arrow_forward
- In 1808 John Dalton published his atomic theory which was quickly adopted. The five tenets of Dalton's theory are An element is composed of tiny indivisible, indestructible particles called atoms. All the atoms of an element are identical and have the same properties. Atoms of different elements combine to form compounds. Compounds contain atoms in ratios of small whole numbers. Atoms can combine in more than one ratio to form different compounds. Although all of the statements were valid at the time, several have been modified as new discoveries were made. Which of these tenets have been modified? What caused the modification?arrow_forwardSince 1800, almost 200 sincere but erroneous reports ofthe discovery of new chemical elements have been made.Why have mistaken reports of new elements been sonumerous? Why is it relatively easy to prove that a material is not a chemical element, but difficult to prove absolutely that a material is an element?arrow_forward
