Atoms are the building blocks of all matter. Atoms are the most basic units of an element that have the properties of that element. Atoms of elements combine to form molecules, which can be molecular compounds, and atoms of elements can combine to form ionic compounds, as well. Compounds contain atoms of two or more elements chemically combined.
What else can I help you with?
How is matter element atom crystal compound and molecule the same?
An element, atom, crystal, compound, and molecule are all forms of matter.
Is the smallest particle of a compound?
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.
Is NH3 an element compound or molecule?
NH3 is molecule of ammoia. It is not element
Is a molecule an element or compound?
A molecule can be either an element or a compound, depending on its composition. If a molecule consists of only one type of atom, it is an element. If a molecule is made up of two or more different types of atoms bonded together, it is a compound.
The smallest part of an element that still acts like a element is?
An atom for an ELEMENT and a molecule for a COMPOUND.
What is an non-example for cell?
Atom, Molecule, Compound, Element, DNA, etc..
Can compound have a molecule with a single atom?
No, a single atom is an element. Combinations of single atoms form compounds.
Can you have an atom of a compound like you can an element or can you only have a molecule of a compound?
Yes, elements and compounds can exist separately.
What does it mean if an atom has no subscript in a chemical formula?
There is one atom of that element in the molecule.
What is the difference with an element and a compound?
An element is a single atom type, like oxygen, hydrogen, carbon etc., but a compound is a molecule of several atom types, like water, salt, steel, etc.
How is an atom diferant from a molecule?
An atom is the purest form of any element, and a molecule occurs when atoms from different elements join together to form a new compound.
What is the difference between a molecule of an element and a molecule of a compound?
An element can be distinguished by only one atom of an element because it has significant properties, while a molecule has to be found by two atoms like O2 and H2.
