Compounds
Group: 4 #group-4
Relations
- Bonding: The formation of compounds involves chemical bonding between atoms or ions.
- Organic Compounds: Organic compounds contain carbon atoms, while inorganic compounds do not.
- Solubility: The solubility of a compound depends on its polarity, ionic character, and the nature of the solvent.
- Chemical Formulas: Chemical formulas represent the composition of compounds, showing the types and ratios of atoms present.
- Decomposition: Compounds can break down into simpler substances through decomposition reactions.
- Chemical Reactions: Compounds can be formed or broken down through chemical reactions.
- Chemical Substances: Compounds are chemical substances composed of two or more elements chemically bonded together.
- Inorganic Compounds: Inorganic compounds do not contain carbon atoms, except for certain exceptions like carbonates and cyanides.
- Acids: Acids are compounds that release hydrogen ions (H+) when dissolved in water.
- Salts: Salts are ionic compounds formed by the neutralization reaction between an acid and a base.
- Bases: Bases are compounds that release hydroxide ions (OH-) when dissolved in water.
- Molecular Structure: The arrangement of atoms and bonds in a compound determines its molecular structure.
- Molecules: Compounds are made up of molecules, which are the smallest units of a compound that retain its chemical properties.
- Elements: Compounds are formed by the combination of two or more different elements.
- Reactivity: The reactivity of a compound is influenced by its structure, bonding, and the presence of functional groups.
- Polymers: Polymers are large compounds formed by the repetition of smaller units called monomers.
- Synthesis: Compounds can be synthesized through various chemical processes, such as combination, decomposition, or displacement reactions.
- Molecular: Molecules can be classified as compounds, which are substances composed of two or more different atoms.
- Chemical Properties: The chemical properties of a compound, such as reactivity and solubility, are determined by its composition and structure.
- Molecules: Molecules are the fundamental units of compounds.
- Mixtures: Compounds are distinct from mixtures, which are physical combinations of substances that can be separated by physical means.
