How is are element and an atom different?
An atom is an individual particle made of protons(positively charged particles), electrons(negatively charged particles) and neutrons(particles with no charge). The type of atom depends on the number of protons in the nucleus(the centre of the atom). An element is all atoms of the same type.
Is it possible for atoms of the same element to have different chemical properties?
Atoms of the same element differ in the number of neutrons in their nuclei. All atoms of a given element have the same number of protons, of course. The number of protons in a nucleus determines which element the atom is. But the number of neutrons can vary, and these different "versions" of a given element are called isotopes of that element. See the related question, which is linked below.
Do all atoms have the same protons?
In respect to different elements, no they don't, in respect to like atoms of one particular element, yes they do. The electrons are the particles that vary from like atoms of the same element. When the electrons and protons are uneven within an atom, you have a radioactive element.
Is an element's atoms are all the same or different?
same
How are all the isotopes of an element simular and how are they different?
Atoms of all isotopes of a single element have the same number of protons in their nuclei but have different numbers of neutrons if they have different mass numbers.
What is a pure substance that has all particles the same?
An element.
All particles in a pure material are the same true or false?
- A molecule may contain different types of atoms.- An element can be composed from different isotopes.
Which is not part of John Dalton’s atomic theory a. Atoms of different elements have different masses.b. All elements are composed of atoms.c. All atoms of the same element have the same mass.d.Atoms are made up of smaller particles?

What element is composed of atoms that all have the same atomic number?
All elements are composed of atoms that all have the same atomic number. If the atomic number is different then you have a different element. The number of neutrons can be different and you will have a different isotope of that element with a different mass. An example of an element that only has one isotope is fluorine.
Is an element's atoms are all the same or different?
same
Do the nuclei of all atoms of a given element always have the same number of neutrons?
No - different isotopes of an element have different numbers of neutrons. All atoms of an element will have the same number of protons.
How are liquid particles gas particles and ice particles the same?
They are all made of matter; just in different states.
What makes all atoms of an element the same?
atoms are of an element are the same becasue the are all made from identical particles. there is no way to distinguish one electron from another electron. the same is true for neutrons and protons. so by virtue of the fact that its constituents are identical, all atoms of the same element are identical.
