I do believe, if my memory serves me correctly, that it is the elements in the first column.... they have only one atom on the outer shell, so it is less full.
Well, atoms are the smallest objects in the universe. Everything is made up of atoms. That means that bacteria is made of atoms!
the smallest atom is hydrogen, the smallest molecule would be the naturally occurring diatomic hydrogen.
Atoms
The smallest particles of matter are called atoms. Atoms are composed of protons, neutrons, and electrons.
Atoms
Atoms are the smallest forms of matter that we have discovered.
Linus Pauling calculated the electronegativity of fluorine by averaging the values of the dissociation energies of the HF, HCl, HBr, and HI molecules. He used a formula that related the bond energies to electronegativity values, based on the differences in electronegativities between the atoms involved in the bond.
atoms having low Ionisation enthalpy and ones having high electronegativity form ionic bond
Metallic bonding occurs between copper atoms. Only copper is a metal and has the characteristics needed for metallic bonding. Metallic bonding occurs between atoms with low electronegativities (low tendency to attract electrons from other atoms) and low ionisation energies (little energy required to remove electrons from the atoms). The low tendency for the metallic atoms to keep their electrons allow their electrons to be shared between the atoms, which thus become cations. The cations tend to be very closely-packed; they are not repulsed by their similar positive charges, but attracted to the electrons flowing freely between the cations. Metallic bonding therefore occurs between copper atoms, which have low electronegativity and ionisation energy. Chlorine atoms have some of the highest electronegativity and ionisation energy of all elements, and thus do not exhibit metallic bonding.

The energies associated with atomic motion are called kinetic energies. These energies are related to the motion of atoms and molecules within a system and are a key factor in determining the temperature of the system.
Low ionization energies are typically characteristic of atoms that have large atomic size and few protons in their nucleus, such as alkali metals and alkaline earth metals. These atoms have loosely bound electrons that require less energy to remove.
Atoms are the smallest units of matter. Molecules are made of atoms.
Atoms are the smallest units of an element. Molecules are the smallest unit of a compound.
