What happens to the properties of atoms when they are joined through a chemical reaction to form a compound? Give an example. plz help

OpenStudy (anonymous):

help @cookielate and @*louisa*

OpenStudy (anonymous):

help me plz :(

OpenStudy (cookielate):

When different atoms join, a new substance is formed that has properties that differ from the properties of the original atoms. Example: Hydrogen and oxygen separately are colorless, odorless gases at room temperature. When combined in a chemical reaction, they form water

OpenStudy (cookielate):

does that help @Rubyjadeluv

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah ty

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can u help with more plz

OpenStudy (cookielate):

okay

What does it mean when a symbol in a chemical formula is not followed by a subscript?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

does it mean this?? It means there is only one of that kind of atom in the molecule. or there is one of that kind of element or compound

OpenStudy (anonymous):

help someone

OpenStudy (cookielate):

It means there is only one of that kind of atom in the molecule. or there is one of that kind of element or compound!

OpenStudy (cookielate):

sorry my laptop is lagging

OpenStudy (cookielate):

whats the other question ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its 0k wait i will post it

OpenStudy (cookielate):

bye

OpenStudy (cookielate):

An atom stabilizes by bonding with another atom in order to fill out its outer set of electrons in its shell. When two atoms of the same chemical element bond together they form a diatonic molecule. When two atoms of different chemical elements bond, they form a chemical compound. Atoms are held together because there is an electrostatic attractive force between the two atoms. Energy is required for the chemical reaction to bond atoms. This energy becomes potential chemical energy that is stored in a molecule or chemical compound. For example, combining two atoms of hydrogen forms a hydrogen molecule, H2
