Yes. They are broken down into sub-atomic particles in particle accelerators. But when an atom is broken up into smaller components, those components no longer have the properties of the original elemental atom. These components are the same for every element, and form any of the elements when combined in the proper numbers and configurations.
What else can I help you with?
How did Thomson help our understanding of the atom?
He discovered that the atom contained smaller particles called electrons.
Is the ovary divided into parts if so how many?
sometimes ovary is divided into two parts that is how we obtain similar twins
Smallest particles that make up matter?
An Atom. It's the world's smallest particles of matter, atom's is known to be 20 times smaller than an average coffee bean.
What parts of an atom are found in the nucleus?
The nucleus of an atom contains neutrons and protons and protons, in turn, contain quarks.
Are the three parts and changes of an atom?
That Q doesnt make any sense.
What is the smallest piece of a chemical element called?
An ATOM!!!! An atom can be sub-divided in to protons, neutrons, and electrons.
What are smaller parts into which a biosphere may be divided?
ecosystems
Who gave us the term the atom?
Atom comes from atomic, meaning 'indivisible'. It was previously believed that an atom could not be divided into smaller pieces.
What are quraks?
An atom can be divided too. The parts that it forms are called quarks.
What is smallest particle into which an element can be divided and still have the properties of that element?
an "element" can be divided until it reaches a single atom. But a "molecule" can only be divided until it is a single molecule. For instance, water, H2O, is usually present in the millions to look like water. However, if you divide it up into smaller and smaller portions, say halves, you can only divide it until you have 2 Hydrogens and 1 Oxygen. If you divide it further, it is no longer water. It will become something else.
What cannot be broken down into smaller parts?
An atom is considered the smallest unit of an element that retains the chemical properties of that element. Within an atom, there are subatomic particles like protons, neutrons, and electrons, which cannot be further divided without losing their fundamental properties.
Can an atom of plutonium divide in to smaller particles that retain all the properties of plutonium?
It is not correct: if an atom is divided it is not the original atom.
What is smaller cell or atom?
An atom is smaller.
How do we know things are made of smaller parts?
Things are made up of atom. Atoms are small particles.
How do the circles represent the different parts of an atom?
They don't, unless you mean the smaller ones on the larger ones. The larger, uncoloured circles represent the orbital paths of the electrons of the atoms. The smaller, coloured circles represent the different parts of the atom, like the protons, neutrons, and electrons.
Is anything smaller than a quark?
As of current scientific understanding, quarks are considered to be the smallest known particles and cannot be divided into smaller parts.
Does a atom have smaller parts called neutrons?
yesan atom is made of neurons, electrons, and protons.neutrons has 0 charge electrons has negative chargeand protons have a positive charge
