Do chemical reactions cause changes in atoms?
An atom is the smallest piece of an elemental chemical, a molecule is the smallest piece of a compound chemical (composed of several elements). However due to quantum effects, neither an atom nor a molecule has the properties that we associate with that specific chemical. You need a minimum of several hundred or thousand atoms or molecules in most cases for the "bulk" chemical properties to begin to appear.
