In this episode, we’ll explore how atoms from different elements join together to form compounds. We’ll discuss how these compounds have unique chemical formulae based on their constituent elements. Using analogies like Lego models, we’ll illustrate how different atomic combinations create distinct structures. Finally, we’ll examine sodium oxide (Na₂O) as a specific example, demonstrating how elements combine to form compounds with recognizable chemical formulas.

In this episode, we’ll explore the fundamental concepts of elements and atoms in chemistry. We’ll discuss how there are 118 known elements, each with a unique chemical symbol. We’ll also examine atoms as the basic units of elements and illustrate these ideas with examples like oxygen (O), iron (Fe), and cobalt (Co). Finally, we’ll highlight the connection between element names and their symbols, reinforcing key concepts in chemistry.
