  1. Elements And Compounds Chemistry Dr. May

  2. Atoms • An atom is the smallest part of an element that still has the properties of that element. • An atom is made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons

  3. Atomic Inventory 11 12 11 18 17 17

  4. Elements • The 88 naturally occurring elements are the “chemical alphabet” of all substances in the universe. • Elements can not be broken down by chemical or physical means to simpler substances.

  5. Compounds And Elements

  6. Elements And Atoms • An atom is the smallest part of an element that can enter into a chemical reaction. • 22.98977 grams of sodium contains 6.02 x 1023 atoms of sodium

  7. Compounds and Molecules • The molecule is the smallest part of a compound that still has the properties of that compound. • 58.44 grams of NaCl (sodium chloride) contains 6.02 x 1023 molecules of NaCl

  8. Elements in Galaxies • 91.00% hydrogen • 8.75% helium • 0.25% others

  9. Elements On Earth • 49.2% oxygen (H2O, O2, CO2) • 25.7% silicon (SiO2, silicates) • 7.5% aluminum (Al2O3, minerals) • 4.7% iron (Fe2O3, earth’s core) • 3.4% calcium (CaCO3) • 2.6% sodium (NaCl, Na2CO3) • 2.4% potassium (KCl, K2CO3)

  10. Elements In The Earth’s Crust Earth Crust

  11. Elements In The Human Body • 65% Oxygen (H2O, protein) • 18% carbon (RNA, DNA, protein) • 10% hydrogen (H2O, protein, fat) • 3% nitrogen (protein, DNA) • 2% calcium (bones) • 1% phosphorus (phosphate in DNA)

  12. Seven elements occur as diatomic molecules. Hydrogen (H2) Nitrogen (N2) Oxygen (O2) Fluorine (F2) Chlorine (Cl2) Bromine (Br2) Iodine (I2) Diatomic Elements
