What does a formula tell you?
Chemical formulas are used to represent chemical compounds. It shows the component elements of the compound. Also it shows the ratios of the component elements.
What is represented in the empirical formula of a compound?
The absolute ratio of the component elements.
What is the difference between elements and mixtures?
An Element is an absolutely pure, uncorrupted substance … singular. A Compound is a chemically bonded mixture of 2 or more Elements. It has it's own unique physical characteristics, different from any of its component Elements. A Mixture contains more than 1 Element, but it lacks any bonding between its component Elements.
What is the main difference between elements compounds and mixtures?
An Element is an absolutely pure, uncorrupted substance … singular. A Compound is a chemically bonded mixture of 2 or more Elements. It has it's own unique physical characteristics, different from any of its component Elements. A Mixture contains more than 1 Element, but it lacks any bonding between its component Elements.
What names the elements that combine to form a compound?
The chemical name of the compound is often based on the names of the elements that are part of it. However, for many simple organic compounds it is not possible to determine the component elements.
Can compounds be broken down into their component elements?
Yes they can, compounds can break down into their component elements under certain environmental temperatures.
Could a compound have the same properties as its component elements?
Compounds are made of bonding few elements. They could not have same properties as its component elements. They could have completely different properties.
Can compounds be broken into its component elements?
yes
Can a compound be separated into there component elements?
YES

What is a component of a system?
the components of the hydrolic system are precipitation and stuff like that look it upA system is A group of interacting, interrelated, or interdependent elements forming a complex whole. Each of these elements is considered a component of that system.
When the elements combine to form compounds what happens to the chemical and physical properties of the elements?
Essentially they disappear. However, of course, if a compound is separated into its component elements the properties will reappear.

It has it's own unique physical characteristics, different from any of its component Elements. A Mixture contains more than 1 Element, but it lacks any bonding between its component Elements.
What is the sum of Vector B with x component 2 and y component 18?
That is only one vector. Sum needs two (or more) elements (operands).
