An iron atom is the smallest iron particle that still has the properties of iron.
An atom of iron is the smallest particle of iron.
A single atom if iron.
This is the iron atom.
The atom
A molecule is the smallest particle of a compound that still retains its properties. An atom is the smallest particle of an element that still retains its properties.
This particle is the atom.
That's an atom of gold. An atom is the smallest representative particle of an element.
The atom is the smallest particle of an element that retains it's characteristics. Sub-atomic particles such as protons, neutrons and electrons form the atom and it is the amount of each of these sub-atomic particles that make the element that element.
An atom. In a sample of copper, for instance, the smallest unit of copper that is still considered copper is a single atom of copper.
An atom is the smallest particle of an element that still has the chemical characteristics of that element
An atom is the smallest particle that is still recognisably the element
An Atom
This particle is the atom.
A molecule is the smallest particle of a compound that still retains its properties. An atom is the smallest particle of an element that still retains its properties.
The smallest particle in gold should in fact be gold. Gold is an element, Au, and thus should only contain gold atoms. You could also argue that some subatomic particle is the smallest particle in gold.
An atom
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 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 of an element that still has all the properties of an element is an atom of that element.
That's an atom of gold. An atom is the smallest representative particle of an element.
