Elements and Compounds (Chemicals in Action)

What is the difference between a compound and a mixture? How do we know what atoms and molecules look like? Who first organized into the periodic table? This title explores how atoms and molecules combine to form elements and compounds, why they are given the names that they have, and how they are used in our everyday lives. You will also find several experiments that can be done at home.
