What makes element different from one another?

The atoms of each element have a number of protons that is unique to each element. The number of protons makes one atom different from another.


What are elements and what make them different from one another?

Elements are pure substances that cannot be broken down by chemical means. The atoms of each element have a number of protons that is unique to each element. The number of protons makes one atom different from another.


What elements makes up compound?

two or more different elements


How are atoms and elements different?

atom and elements are different because one atom makes an element and a element is a pure substance and a atom is a basic particle


How can Atoms vary?

Atoms and elements can vary in many ways. Atoms mainly vary by having different numbers of protons, electrons, and neutrons. The count of protons makes up an elements mass number.


How atoms and elements differ from one another?

An element is a composition of many atoms. Thus you can hold NaCl (salt) in your hand. You can't hold the atoms it makes up.


What is common to the atoms of different elements such that they behave similarly?

their internal structure makes them behave in a similar way.


Are all sample of elements are composed of atoms with same atomic mass?

No, different samples of an element can have varying atomic masses due to the presence of isotopes. Isotopes are atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons, leading to different atomic masses.


What makes atoms?

The answer is that they make elements.


What makes one elemtn different from another?

Are componds made of different combinations of atoms?

A compound is made when two ELEMENTS are joined together. We can look at the elements in the periodic table from these elements we get really everything that is around us. Water is a compound made from hydrogen and oxygen. There can be different combinations of the elements as this is what makes new things.


How are atoms connected to an element?

Well the connection between atoms and elements is they are a compound... Usually compounds have quite different properties (e.g. colour, texture, taste, smell and density) from the elements whose atoms they contain... For example: the compound of water is a liquid at room temperature. Water contains atoms of the elements hydrogen and oxygen, which exist in air as colourless glass - quite different to water...
