The smallest magnification lens on a compound light microscope is the scanning objective lens, typically with a magnification of 4x.
Because the magnification of image = magnification of eyes piece * magnification of lens.
the smallest piece of an element is called an atom
the eye piece magnification is 10x.

An ATOM!!!! An atom can be sub-divided in to protons, neutrons, and electrons.
The smallest objective on a microscope is called the high-power objective lens. It typically has a magnification power of 40x or higher, allowing for detailed examination of specimens.
The smallest piece of carbon dioxide is called a molecule, which consists of one carbon atom bonded to two oxygen atoms.
One can calculate the total magnification of a microscope by multiplying the magnification of the eye piece by the magnification of the main scope. For a compound microscope one must multiply each eye piece magnification.
The smallest piece of water is called a water molecule, which consists of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom bonded together.
He was using this to compare it to the smallest part of an element ... an atom which he called "atomos" from the Greek origin
The total magnification is calculated by multiplying the magnification of the eyepiece by the magnification of the objective. In this case, total magnification = 15 (eyepiece) x 4 (objective) = 60.
