Question

With the help of examples, show that a molecule of a compound can be broken into its constituent
elements.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Note that an element:

consists of only one kind of atom,

cannot be broken down into a simpler type of matter by either physical or chemical means, and

can exist as either atoms (e.g. argon) or molecules (e.g., nitrogen).

A molecule consists of two or more atoms of the same element, or different elements, that are chemically bound together. Note that the two nitrogen atoms which comprise a nitrogen molecule move as a unit

Note that a compound:

consists of atoms of two or more different elements bound together,

can be broken down into a simpler type of matter (elements) by chemical means (but not by physical means),

has properties that are different from its component elements, and

always contains the same ratio of its component atoms.

Note that a mixture:

consists of two or more different elements and/or compounds physically intermingled,

can be separated into its components by physical means, and

often retains many of the properties of its components.

Answer 2

example magnesium chloride mg to cl2 magnesium chloride can be broken down into magnesium and chlorine and another barium carbonate. barium carbonate means BSE it can also be divided barium and carbon.
