Although there are only 90 elements, they combine in many different ways to form all of the substances around you.

This is the atom.
If the substance is an element, the smallest will be an atom. If it is a compound, then that would be a molecule.
no.
The building blocks of all substances are atoms. Atoms are composed of protons, neutrons, and electrons. Different combinations of atoms form molecules, which further combine to create substances.
---------They are all alike because they all are located in an atom or around an atom=P
For an element, it would be an atom. For a molecular substance, it would be a molecule. If it is an ionic compound, it would be a formula unit.
Particles that make all the matter is called an atom. Atoms are further divided as protons, neutrons and electrons. Recent studies have found that subatomic particles are made up of quarks. Atom is considered as an fundamental property of matter. Study of atoms tells us a lot about the characteristic of the element.
This would be the NUCLEUS.
Yes my friends. All elements are pure substances that cannot be broken down. However, pure substances aren't all elements.
The nucleus of an atom is very small compared to the overall size of the atom. It contains protons and neutrons, which make up almost all of the atom's mass, but occupy a tiny fraction of its volume. The rest of the atom is mostly empty space where electrons move around.
Yes! All of the 'substances' are elements. However elements can join together to make compounds.
