Top Compound Flashcards

Chemical compounds are different substances that are combined in a way that they can only be separated by a chemical reaction. It sounds complicated, but we deal with compounds every day! They can be identified by a common name, a chemical name, or a chemical formula. For example, vinegar is also known as acetic acid, and can be written as C2H4O2.
 
Did you know that the formula tells us that vinegar has 2 carbon atoms, 4 hydrogen atoms, and 2 oxygen atoms in each molecule? It really isn’t that complicated! Our flashcards can help you to learn some of the common compounds that you might come across, as well as many other facts. Check them out and start learning today!
