the bigger atoms exploded making much smaller ones
cations are smaller than the atoms from which they were formed because they lost an electron thus becoming smaller in size. anions are bigger than the atoms from which they were formed because they gained an electron and increasing in size. the greater the nuclear charge, the smaller they are.

All matter, is made up of Atoms. Essentially everything formed within a cell is formed of Atoms, but that is not the direct connection. Atoms make up molecules, and molecules make up cells.
false. atoms can be divided into smaller parts
Protons are smaller than atoms. Protons are subatomic particles that are found within the nucleus of an atom along with neutrons. Atoms are made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons.
Yes, ALL matter has atoms. If it exsits, it has atoms.
Cations are formed when atoms lose electrons and hence are smaller in size than the corresponding atoms. Anions are formed when atoms gain electrons and hence are larger in size than the corresponding atoms.

Uranium 235 will naturally decay (with a half-life of 700 million years) into thorium 231. If it encounters a neutron, it can split into 2 or 3 smaller atoms; the exact atoms formed may vary.Uranium 235 will naturally decay (with a half-life of 700 million years) into thorium 231.

He theorized that all matter was made of indestructible elementary particles called atoms. We now know that Atoms are in turn made of smaller particles and are not indestructible, but he formed the very basis of modern atomic theory.
An element is formed from atoms; atoms are formed from protons, neutrons and electrons.Protons and neutroms are formed from quarks and gluons.A molecule is formed fro atoms.
Elements are formed from atoms. Atoms are formed of protons, neutrons, and electrons (sub-atomic particles).
Nuclear fission is the splitting of atoms.
A compound is formed from atoms. Covalent bond is weaker.
All matter, is made up of Atoms. Essentially everything formed within a cell is formed of Atoms, but that is not the direct connection. Atoms make up molecules, and molecules make up cells.

The gas formed when hydrogen atoms fuse is helium. Stars do this.
Atoms, because molecules are atoms bonded together.
