Chemical formula, any of several kinds of expressions of the composition or structure of chemical compounds. The forms commonly encountered are empirical, molecular, structural, and projection formulas. An empirical formula consists of symbols representi
Chemical structure of genes Genes are composed of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), except in someviruses, which have genes consisting of a closely relatedcompoundcalledribonucleic acid(RNA). A DNA molecule is composed of two chains ofnucleotidesthat wind about each other to resemble a twisted ladder. ...

There are two types of compounds based on the type of chemical bonds that bind the elements together: salts and molecular compounds. Salts are held together by ionic bonds, which is a type of chemical bond formed between a metal and a non-metal. Meanwhile, molecular compounds are held togeth...
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) is a term often used to represent a diverse group of chemistries that contain carbon-fluorine bonds, the strongest chemical bonds in organic chemistry. Due to their unique and useful properties, PFAS are widely used and critical to enabling numerous tech...
33. An arsenic atom has 33 electrons and 33 protons with five valence electrons (those that can participate in forming chemical bonds with other electrons) in its outer shell. Arsenic is a crystalline metalloid found in the Earth's crust, but in its free form it is quite rare. The ...

Carbon is a nonmetal that can bond with itself and many other chemical elements, forming over ten million compounds. Because it forms more compounds than any other element, it is sometimes called the "King of the Elements." Elemental carboncan take the form of one of the hardest substances (...
Carbon is the element with atomic number 6 on the periodic table with symbol C. This nonmetallic element is the key to the chemistry of living organisms, primarily due to its tetravalent state, which allows it to form four covalent chemical bonds with other atoms. Here are facts about this ...
