This particle is the atom.
The smallest particle of an element would be an atom. Any smaller and it would not be an element, but something more basic. Atoms are made of Protons, Neutrons, and Electrons. Protons and Neutrons are made of Quarks, Leptons, and Bosons.
Atom is a chemical element, not a particle.
An atom
The simplest particle of an element is an atom. This is the form in which any element can be fully divided into without losing its properties.
The number of protons defines the element.
This particle is the proton.
The smallest particle of an element is called an atom.
it is called the proton
This particle is the atom.
This particle is the atom.
An atom is the smallest particle of an element that can be uniquely identified as that specific element.Note that this question is different from asking "What is the smallest particle in an atom?" (see related question below). Atoms are composed of smaller particles (protons, electrons, and neutrons), but the smallest thing that has the identity of a specific element is the atom.The smallest particle of an element that still retains all that element's properties is called an ATOM.
The smallest particle in the atom is the electron.
