How is a molecule diffent from a atom?
A molecule contains more than one atom.
How does molecule differ from an atom?
A molecule may be one or more atoms, where as an atom can only be one atom. For instance there are hydrogen atoms, and diatomic hydrogen molecules.
Is Ar a atom or molecule?
Argon (Ar) is an atom not a molecule. An atom is singular whereas a molecule is a group of two or more atoms.
Is carbon monoxide an atom?
Yes. One carbon atom is bonded to one oxygen atom by two covalent bonds and one coordinate covalent/dative bond, to form a complete molecule.
What cell structure can break down a large molecule into a smaller one and contains enzymes?
I'm fairly certain it's the lysosome...
Heat is conducted when one atom or molecule collides with?
Heat is conducted when one atom or molecule collides with and transfers energy to another atom or molecule.
How is a molecule diffent from a atom?
A molecule contains more than one atom.
Which is smaller an element or a molecule?
An atom of an element is usually smaller than a molecule of a compound. Molecules are made by bonding 2 or more atoms, of one or more elements. The molecule is the smallest particle of a compound.
What is the smallest unit of salt that is still salt an atom or a molecule?
A molecule. One molecule of salt consists of one atom each of Sodium and Chlorine.
How can an atom not be a molecule?
A molecule is composed of one or more atoms that are properly bonded to each other. If a molecule contains more than one atom, each atom is then a partial molecule as opposed to a whole molecule. Therein lies the difference.
What does it mean if an atom has no subscript in a chemical formula?
There is one atom of that element in the molecule.
Is an atom smaller than a molecule?
An atom is the basic unit of matter . It is virtually the smallest thing that exists and has the properties of an element . The size of an element can't really be measured . However , any amount of an element that consists of more than one atom would , of course , be larger than an atom . By definition , a molecule consists of 2 or more atoms , so no , an atom is not bigger than a molecule . (of course , this is taking in the average size of an atom . Atoms of extremely heavy elements , such as Uranium , would be comparable to the size of a molecule of hydrogen (h2) which is a very small molecule .

Is Ar a atom or molecule?
Argon (Ar) is an atom not a molecule. An atom is singular whereas a molecule is a group of two or more atoms.
Is carbon dioxide molecule made of one carbon atom and one oxygen atom?
No. One carbon dioxide molecule is made up of one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms.
How many atoms of carbon react with a molecule of oxygen to form a molecule of carbon monoxide?
there is one atom of oxygen in Carbon monoxide (CO) i.e. half molecule of oxygen.
What is made up of more than one atom?
Its a Molecule Its a Molecule
