How are compound and an element different?
An element is an atom or molecule made of a single type of atom. A compound is a molecule made of two or more different elements.
If the number of neutrons in an atom is changed does the atom become a new element Why or why not?
No, it becomes a different isotope. An element is defined solely by the number of protons.
What makes a mineral different from another?
Chemical combination, Atom arrangement Different types of atom present air pressure, temperature heat, Area where they are found, etc
What will an atom of iodine most likely do to be stable?
Steal an electron from an atom of a different element.
Why is there a distinct electron arrangement for each atom?
because different element have different number of electrons.

Why is an iron atom a different element than a sodium atom?
An iron atom is a different element than a sodium atom because it has a different ground state electron configuration. In fact, any atom that differs from any other atom in ground state electron configuration is a different element.
Is gluclose an element?
No, Glucose is not an element. To be an element, a substance must have all the same type of atom. Once it has this, it can go on the Periodic Table. Glucose is formed of three different atoms: Carbon, Hydrogen and Oxygen. One molecule has twenty four atoms in in the arrangement: C6H12O6So, as Glucose has three different types of atom in it, it's not an element.
Why is an oxygen atom a different element than a mercury atom?
The number of protons is different.
How are atoms and elements different?
atom and elements are different because one atom makes an element and a element is a pure substance and a atom is a basic particle
Is it true that every atom of the same element has the same atomic number?
Yes. It is true. An atom with a different atomic number is an atom of a different element.
Does an atom retain the chemical identity of an element?
An isotope is an atom that contains a different number of neutrons. In order for an element to change there has to be a different number of protons.
What happens when the number of protons in an atom change?
The type of atom is now different from what it was. (It has a new identity.)
How Difference atom and element?
atom and elements are different because one atom makes an element and a element is a pure substance and a atom is a basic particle
Does an element contain different types of atom?
no
How are compound and an element different?
An element is an atom or molecule made of a single type of atom. A compound is a molecule made of two or more different elements.
