In Mrs. Whitmire's class we are studying chemistry. When you come to think about it, chemistry is complicated. In this paragraph we will tell you some thinks about chemistry. Lets start with some symbols, a symbol for water is H2O  which means it has 2 hydrogen & 1 oxygen. Compounds are how much chemicals are in the element. A symbol for gold is Au. Most of the time the symbol will be the first letter of the element except if it already had a Greek name before the American name.  One example of an element with a Greek name is sodium. The symbol is Na. Well I hope you learned something out of this  information  because we sure did. We will give you more information next time, bye.
