OMG! I just got together with two of my friends, Sandy and Mandy the hydrogen sisters, and we made a H20 molecule together. How cool is that? Plus, I bumped into this super cute nitrogen atom named Jeremy. I really hope he asks me to the Element Halloween Dance this weekend. I can't wait for it! TTYL!

This is officially the worst day of my entire life! Some human breathed me in, and once he exhaled I came out as part of a CO2 molecule... EWWW! I was crammed against a carbon atom who was completely obsessed with Star Wars and another oxygen atom that reads all the time and never talks to me. I can not wait to be on my own again!

Today was 10000 times better compared to yesterday. Jeremy, the cute Nitrogen atom I mentioned before, actually asked me to the dance! I freaked out earlier though because he was talking to Sandy and I thought that he was going to ask her. Luckily, he was just asking her if she thought that I would say yes if he asked me. But seriously, I can't wait. We are bonding together and being Nitric Oxide for the dance. We will be the cutest molecule there! This is officially the best day of my life!

After being asked to be in a relationship with all of these cute guys, I decided to say no. I know it may seem pretty shocking but I need some time to chill with my friends! After all, there will always be plenty of elements out there for me to react with!

C₂H₆O + O₂ -----> CO₂ + H₂O

In this equation, I help make up glucose and oxygen. On the resulting side of it, I take part in carbon dioxide and water. According to the law of conservation of matter, no matter will be lost or gained. In this equation, the law is supported because there is the same amount of matter on both sides of the equation.

Overview:

When in a liquid and solid state, I am a pretty, pale blue color. It really sucks when I'm a gas though because I am really boring. I mean I am  colorless, odorless, and tasteless... how plain is that?!?  Perosnally, I get angry really easily and so I'm very reactive and combustible. When I am by myself and I get a chance to chill, I cool down to a freezing point of-214.4 degrees Celsius.

Activities & Interests:

I spend most of my time allowing animals and humans to live by breathing me in. I love combining with other elements to make molecules. Personally, my favorite molecules to be part of are C2H2 and H2O. I combine with others so I can make new molecules that are needed elsewhere. For example, sometimes I have to be CO2 so plants can turn me back into a single oxygen atom.

There are four main types of reactions:

Single-Replacement= one or more elements take the place of another element in a compound

Double-Replacement= a gas, solid, precipitate, or molecular compound forms the exchange of ions between two compounds

Synthesis= reaction in which two or more substances combine to form a new compound

Decomposition= reaction where a single compound breaks down to form two or more simpler substances

I can be present in all types of these reactions. This is because I easily react and bond with other elements.

SnO₂ + H₂ → Sn + H₂O

In this chemical equation, tin and I formed tin oxide and we are being heated by hydrogen gas. As a result, tin metal and water vapor is formed.
