Where do elements come from?

Answer 1

Chemistry developed from the observation of natural processes that occurred when various substances were mixed, dissolved, or heated. The pseudoscience of alchemy was one that used various techniques found in modern chemistry. (One aim of alchemy was to transmute an element into another element, notably lead into gold.) Later chemists became interested in how to isolate particular elements from a compound, and many of the known elements were discovered (along with their chemical properties).

Answer 2

Chemical properties come from the valence shell electron configuration of atoms. In compounds, chemical properties can also come from specific arrangements of atoms called functional groups.

Answer 3

The current understanding is that the naturally occurring elements were formed in stars.

Answer 4

Chemicals are every where. Even you are made of them.

Answer 5

bunsen burners energy originally came from the sun. they use energy stored in natural gas.

Answer 6

These atoms are from the reactants in the chemical reaction.
An example:
NaOH + HCl = NaCl + H2O

Answer 7

Some chemicals are found in the earth, and can be dug out of the ground- salt, sulfur, borax are found this way. Some are made by people starting with materials dug out of the ground.

Answer 8

from the sun
