Elements, Compounds and Mixtures

This document defines and distinguishes between elements, compounds, and mixtures. It states that elements are pure substances that cannot be broken down further, while compounds are formed by two or more elements chemically bonded together in specific ratios. Mixtures are physical combinations of substances that are not chemically bonded and can be separated. The document provides examples like NaCl (salt) and H2O (water) to illustrate compounds, and uses interactive questions to test the reader's understanding of identifying elements, compounds and mixtures.

Elements,

Compounds
and Mixtures
Essential Question:
• How can you differentiate between elements,
compounds and mixtures?
Elements
●pure substance that cannot be separated into
simpler substance by physical or chemical means.
Elements

 Elements are the building blocks of matter


 Periodic table is a list of all elements that can build matter.
What does the Periodic
Table tell us?
 Atomic Number =
number of protons found
in the nucleus.
Determines what element
an atom is.

 Atomic Weight = the


mass of the atom
Compounds
Substance composed of two or more
different elements joined by chemical
H 2O
bonds.
NaCl
●Made of elements in a specific ratio
that is always the same
●represented with a chemical formula
●Can only be separated by chemical means,
not physical CO 2
What happens when you
combine sodium and
chlorine?
Sodium Chlorine
I’ll give you a hint!
It’s Salt!!!
What is the difference of
Element and Compound?
Mixtures
●A combination of two or more substances that
are not chemically combined.
●substances held together by physical forces, not
chemical
●No chemical change takes place
●Each item retains its properties
in the mixture
●They can be separated physically
Mixtures vs. Compounds
Can you identify the following?

You will be shown a series of photos. Tell if each photo


represents an item composed of an element,
compound, or mixture.
Review:
●An element contains just one type of atom.
●A compound contains two or more different atoms
joined together.
●A mixture contains two or more different substances
that are only physically joined together, not chemically.
●A mixture can contain both elements and compounds.
