ELEMENTS AND COMPOUNDS

I AM DMITRI MENDELEEV

I made the PERIODIC TABLE !

WHAT IS THE PERIODIC TABLE?

Shows all known

elements in the universe.
Organizes the elements
by chemical properties.
HOW DO YOU READ THE PERIODIC
TABLE?
ELEMENTS, COMPOUNDS, AND MIXTURES
WHAT IS AN ELEMENT?
A substance
composed of a
single kind of atom.
Cannot be broken
down into another
substance by
chemical or physical
means.
AN ELEMENT IS A SUBSTANCE THAT IS MADE FROM ONE KIND
OF ATOM ONLY. IT CANNOT BE BROKEN DOWN INTO SIMPLER
SUBSTANCES.

ELEMENTS

The smallest particle of an element that has the

properties of that element is called an atom.
An atom is the basic building block of matter.
ELEMENTS

There are more than one hundred known elements

in the universe listed on the periodic table of
elements.
These elements combine in such a way to create
millions of compounds.
ELEMENTS

All elements are made of atoms.

Atoms of the same element are alike.
Atoms of different elements are
different.
ELEMENTS
In 1813, a system of representing
elements with symbols was
introduced.
Each symbol consists of one or
two letters.
Two letters are needed for a
chemical symbol when the first
letter of that element’s name has
already been used.

WHAT IS A COMPOUND?

A substance in
which two or
more different
elements are
CHEMICALLY
bonded together.
COMPOUNDS

Compounds are also pure

substances.
But compounds are made from more
than one element.
Water is a compound.
Water can be broken down into
simpler substances – hydrogen and
oxygen.
A COMPOUND IS A SUBSTANCE THAT IS MADE FROM MORE
THAN ONE ELEMENT.

WHAT IS A MIXTURE?

Two or more
substances that
are mixed together
but are NOT
chemically bonded.

ACTIVITY: “LOOK AROUND AND CLASSIFY!”

You are going to Create a table, one column for the materials
found in your surroundings, another column for the element/s
present in that material and another one column for its
classification whether it is an element or compound.
