First of all, I think you meant molecules that contain more tham one kind of atom. These are called compounds. The two different elements are fused together chemically, and cannot be separated easily. Compounds should not be confused with mixtures, which are physically combined and can be separated.

What is a atom that is made of atoms of more than one type bound together?

There is no such thing as an atom made of atoms. A molecule made of atoms of different types is a molecular compound.


What is a poly atomic atom?

Nothing. The term "polyatomic atom" would mean an atom made up of two or more atoms and so is self-contradictory. A polyatomic ion is a charge particle composed of multiple atoms covalently bonded together in much the same way as they are in molecules.


An atom that has lost or gained electrons is known as an ion. What compound is it made up of?

Atoms (and ions) are not made of compounds. Compounds are made of two or more different atoms.


Is an atom more complex than a molecule?

An atom is and element. Atoms are the simplest particles of an element. A bar of pure gold is composed of gold (Au) atoms. In a sense then, the atoms that make up this bar of gold are simpler than the entire bar. However, the terms "atom" and "element" describe different levels of magnitude. An atom is a single particle of an element. An element is a pure substance composed of atoms, not compound molecules.


What is a relationship between an atom and a molecule?

A molecule consists of (is made up of) one or more atoms.Molecules are made of atoms.


What is the difference between the examples of atoms and molecules?

Atoms are individual particles that make up all matter, while molecules are groups of atoms bonded together. For example, a single oxygen atom is an atom, but when two oxygen atoms bond together, they form an oxygen molecule.


Are some atoms made up of two or more different elements?

No any atom is just (and only) an atom of one element.


Is a compound made of one type of atom?

No, a compound is made up of more than one type of atoms whereas an element is made up of one type of atom ;)


Atoms are made up of more than one type of atom?

No, atoms are made up of much smaller particles like electrons, protons, and neutrons.


Which is larger than a single atom?

A molecule is larger than a single atom, as it is formed when two or more atoms bond together. Additionally, structures like cells, which are made up of numerous molecules, are significantly larger than single atoms. Other examples include macromolecules such as proteins and nucleic acids, which are composed of many atoms and are essential for biological functions.


What is the relationship between a atom and a molecule?

a molecule is made up of more then 1 type of atom. also there are 1 or 2 elements that have molecules with only 1 atom. The atom is the basic unit of matter and the molecule is the smallest unit of compounds.


Is atoms made of air?

Yes, all the materials in the universe are made from atoms.
