Question

Difference between Element and Compound?,✌️✌️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Answer 1

Meaning-

A compound contains atoms of different elements chemically combined together in a fixed ratio.

An element is a pure chemical substance made of same type of atom.

Distinguishing Feature-

Compounds contain different elements in a fixed ratio arranged in a defined manner through chemical bonds.

Elements are distinguished by their atomic number (number of protons in their nucleus).

Ability to Breakdown-

A compound can be separated into simpler substances by chemical methods/reactions.

Elements cannot be broken down into simpler substances by chemical reactions.

Types-

The list of compounds is endless.

There are about 117 elements that have been observed. Can be classified as metal, non-metal or metalloid.

Representation-

A compound is represented using a formula.

An element is represented using symbols.

Examples-

compound- Water (H2O), Sodium chloride (NaCl), Sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) etc.

element- Iron, copper, silver, gold, nickel etc

✏ Differences between Elements and Compounds.

-----------------------------------------

✒ Elements

• Elements are pure substances.
• Element has only one kind of atom.
• They are represented by symbols.
• In elements smallest particle is atom.
• We cannot divide element into two or more simpler substances by chemical or physical means.

✒ Compounds

• Compounds are impure substances.
• Compound have two or more kind of atom.
• They are represented by chemical formula.
• In compounds smallest particle is molecules.
• We can provide compound in two elements by chemical means.

✒ About Elements

• Elements constitute the simplest chemical substances in which all the atoms are exactly the same.
• Example :-

1. Aluminium (Al)
2. Oxygen (O)

✒ About Compounds

• Compounds are chemical substances made up of two or more elements that are chemically bound together in a fixed ratio.
• Example :-

1. Alcohol C2H6O
2. Acetic Acid C2H4O2
