An element is any substance that has only one type of atom in it (e.g. aluminium atoms). Every known element is presented on the Periodic Table of the Elements and classified into groups and periods. Some of the elements either never did or don't now naturally occur, and so scientists must synthesise them.

I don't quite have a photo of what they look like ( very hard to find on Google images) bu i have some information on them anyway;

  • consists of only one kind of atom,
  • cannot be broken down into a simpler type of matter by either physical or chemical means, and
  • can exist as either atoms (e.g. argon) or molecules (e.g., nitrogen).

Sorry if it's not quite what you wanted

Depends on the element. but a particle is just the smallest bit of that piece? in this case it happens to be the atom. Which looks like a small ball surrounded in a cloud of negively charged particles (electrons). The small ball is the nucleus which is formed by protons and neutrons(a proton and a electron smashed together).
