Thus, paper is made mostly out of organic compounds: that is carbon, hydrogen and oxygen (C, H and O). Paper also contains non organic materials to improve its properties. These may be chalk (CaCO3) and kaolin clay (Al2Si2O5(OH)4). Titanium oxide (TiO2) is also commonly used in paper for bleaching it.

An atom is the smallest particle of an element that still has the properties of that element. Every substance is composed of atoms.
