Common Compounds

1. Sodium Hydrogen Carbonate (NaHCO3)

Ex. Baking Powder - Baking powder is a dry chemical leavening agent, a mixture of a carbonate or bicarbonate and a weak acid, and is used for increasing the volume and lightening the texture of baked goods.

2. Sodium Chloride (NaCl)

Ex. Table Salt - Common salt is a mineral composed primarily of sodium chloride, a chemical compound belonging to the larger class of salts; salt in its natural form as a crystalline mineral is known as rock salt or halite.

3. Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2)

Ex. Mouthwash - Usually mouthwashes are an antiseptic solution intended to reduce the microbial load in the oral cavity, although other mouthwashes might be given for other reasons such as for their analgesic, anti-inflammatory or anti-fungal action.

4. Sodium Hypochlorite (NaOCl)

Ex. Household Bleach -  refers to a number of chemicals which remove color, whiten or disinfect, often by oxidation.

5. Acetyl Salicylic Acid (C9H804)

Ex. Aspirin - to reduce fever and relieve mild to moderate pain from conditions such as muscle aches, toothaches, common cold, and headaches. It may also be used to reduce pain and swelling in conditions such as arthritis. Aspirin is known as a salicylate and a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID).

Elements1. Metals – is a material that is typically hard, opaque, shiny and has good electrical and thermal conductivity.Examples:Aluminum Copper

2. Metalloids – is a chemical element with properties in between, mixture, those metals and non-metals.Examples:

Arsenic Silicon

3. Non-Metals – is a chemical element that mostly lacks metallic attributes, poor conductor of heat.

Examples:

Sulfur Phosphorus

Mixtures

Examples: 1. Homogeneous Mixture - Water itself is an example of ahomogeneous mixture. It often contains dissolved minerals and gases, but these are dissolved throughout the water. Tap water and rain water are both homogeneous, even though they may have different levels of dissolved minerals and gases.

Coffee Glass of Juice

2. Heterogeneous Mixtures – is made of different substances that remain physically separate.

Examples:

Bowl of salad Oil and Water
