Elements and Compounds(元素与化合物)

1、Elements and Compounds(元素與化合物)Relative (相對) abundance (豐度) of different elementsDifferences between compound (化合物) and mixture (混合物)Some definitions (定義)nElement (元素) e.g. hydrogen, oxygen A pure substance containing one kind of atoms only.nCompound (化合物) e.g. water, sodium chlorideA pure substance

2、in which more than one kinds of atoms are chemically combined together.nMixture (混合物) e.g. sea water An impure substance with more than one element or compound mixed together.Relative abundance (豐度) of different elements on the earths crust (地殼)List the 4 most abundant (豐富的) elements on the earths c

10、in water (H2O), the ratio of H atom to O atom is 2 to 1. variable composition (no formula can be assigned.)e.g. different stainless steels contain different amounts of iron and carbon. Composition by massconstant compositione.g. in water, the mass of H atom to O atom is 1 : 16 and the number ratio i

11、s 2 : 1, therefore, the mass of hydrogen to oxygen in water would always be 1 : 8. variable (可變的) composition Melting pointa sharp melting point because it is pure. a wide melting range because it is not pure. Separation of constituentsconstituents can only be separated by chemical method (e.g. elec

12、trolysis) constituents can be separated by physical method (e.g. distillation, filtration) Heat change of formationusually heat is evolved or absorbed upon formation no heat change involved. Propertiesproperties of the compound is so different from the constituent elements individual elements retain
