The smallest part of a compound is the atom.
Answera molecule is the smallest part of a compound (study island)The smallest part of a compound is an atom.A Molecule
an atom
Atom
The smallest part of an element is an atom, which consists of protons, neutrons, and electrons. The smallest part of a compound is a molecule, made up of atoms bonded together in a specific arrangement.
Yes, it is true
A molecule is the smallest part of a compound that still retains the properties of said compound. As the atom is the smallest particle of an element into which it can be divided and still retain all the properties of that element, the molecule is the atom's analog for a compound.
The smallest part of substance that still retains the properties of that compound is called an atom. All things are made of atoms.
The smallest form of a compound is an atom.
False. A molecule is the smallest part of a compound that can still be indentified as a compound as it may contain several atoms of different elements. A single atom can only identify a single element, not a compound which it may have been a part of.
A molecule is the smallest particle of a "compound" being that compounds are made up of more than one atom. The smallest particle of any "chemical element" that retains its properties would be the atom.
A molecule is the combination of two or more atoms which may exist free in nature. Does this mean that one atom of heliom is NOT a molecule? yes it is not a molecule it is an atom that exists free as a molecule so the term monoatomic molecule is used for noble gase but not only molecule.
