The ratio of elements depends on the context. Helium is the second most abundant common element in the universe (23% by mass) but in the earth's crust, it accounts for only 8 parts per billion. Conversely, silicon accounts for around 28% of the earth's crust but 0.07% of the universe.

Shows the ratio of elements in a compound?
The chemical formula of the compound shows the ratio of the atoms of elements in a compound. This must not be confused with the ratio of their masses.
What is the ratio of elements found in carbohydrates?
The ratio depends on the compound.
What is the ratio of elements in monopotassium phosphate?
K:H:P:O = 1:2:1:4
Rules of constant proportion?
Proust's law of constant proportions states that a given chemical compound always contains its component elements in fixed ratio (by weight). The ratio does not depend on its source and method of preparation.
What is the ratio of copper to tin in bronze?
There are many different alloys containing mainly copper, some tin and small amounts of other elements. There is, therefore, no precise answer. Generally, though, the ratio of copper to tin will be 997:3
What are composed elements combined in a specific ratio called?
what consists of elements combined in a specific ratio?
Shows the ratio of elements in a compound?
The chemical formula of the compound shows the ratio of the atoms of elements in a compound. This must not be confused with the ratio of their masses.
A substance with two or more elements in a fixed ratio?
A compound is a substance composed of two or more elements in a fixed ratio. The elements in a compound are chemically bonded together, creating a new substance with unique properties different from its constituent elements. The ratio of elements in a compound is represented by its chemical formula.
What is the ratio of sulphur?
The ratio of sulphur to all other elements, in the universe, is 0.
A notion that shows what elements a compound contains and the ratio of the atoms or ions of these elements in the compound?
A chemical formula shows what elements a compound contains, and the ratio of the atoms or ions of the elements in the compound.
Is metal alloys a mixture?
An alloy is a mixture of Metals. A mixture is a combination of elements in an unfixed ratio. A compound is a mixture of elements in a fixed ratio.
Do elements have a specific mass ratio?
Yes, they do.
A substance consisting of two or more elements in a fixed ratio.?
a chemical compound is a substance consisting of two or more elements in a fixed ratio.
Do you simplify empirical formula ratios?
Yes, empirical formulas provide the simplest ratio of elements in a compound. By determining the molar ratios between different elements in a compound, we can find the simplest whole number ratio that represents the elements present.
What is simple whole number ratio?
Simple whole number ratio implies that ratio of the elements in a compound is a whole number i.e. the ratio of elements bear whole number. For example in Cu2O, Cu and O combine in a simple whole number ratio of 2:1.
Represents a compound -how are the elements in the compound and the ratio of atoms?
A compound consists of two or more elements chemically combined in a fixed ratio. The ratio of atoms in a compound is determined by the chemical formula, which shows the types of elements present and their respective proportions. The elements in a compound are bonded together through chemical interactions to form a stable structure.
What is a substance formed from two or more elements form when chemically combined in a set ratio?
A compound is a chemical combination of two or more elements in a fixed ratio.
