No. An atom is made of a nucleus composed of neutral Neutrons and positively charged Protons, surrounded by negatively charged electrons. The numbers of protons, neutrons, and electrons in the atom varies depending on the element. Hydrogen, for example, has only one electron. Carbon has 6.

∙ 15y agoNo! It is the exact structure of an atom that determines what element it is

∙ 8y agoYes. Each element's atoms all have the same unique number of protons, which is what defines an element and chiefly determines its chemical properties.

∙ 14y agoNo, atoms of different elements are not exactly alike.

What can be made of atoms that are different or atoms that are alike?
Two or more atoms that are alike or different are called molecules.
How has Dalton's model of the atom changed to todays model of the atom?
Matter is made up of atoms, atoms cannot be divided into smaller pieces, all the atoms of an element are exactly alike, and different elements are made of different kinds of atoms. The nucleus, electrons in the electron cloud is the today's model and the past model is matter divided into smaller pieces.
How are atoms and elements similar and different?
they are alike because they all have mass ther diffrent because there lines, and isotpes
Is it true that all particles are alike in elements?
No. All atoms of a given element are alike in the number of protons, which is the atomic number of an element. However, the number of neutrons in the nucleus can vary. Atoms of elements with the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons are called isotopes. All atoms of a given element in their ground state have the same number of electrons as they do protons, but if they form ions, the number of electrons will increase or decrease, depending on the element, but the number of protons remains the same.
What are the postulates in Dalton's atomic theory 45k?
All elements are made of tiny indivisible particles called atoms.All atoms of a given element are alike but the atoms of one element differ from the atoms of every other element.Atoms are not created, destroyed or converted into other kinds of atoms during chemical reactions. They are simply rearranged into new compounds.Compounds result from the chemical combination of a specific ratio of atoms of different elements.(These are loose interpretations of his original five statements)
Are neutrons in the atoms of different elements alike?
neutrons of all atoms are alike
How did Delton describe the relationship between atoms and elements?
Dalton believed that there was a different atom for each element that there was, and that these atoms made up the elements that were in existence. He did not say exactly how these atoms were different, just that they were different. Dalton also believed that all of the atoms for a given element were exactly alike in every way.
Why are atoms and elements alike?
Because the differences in atoms make different elements. Elements are multiple of similar atoms.
Are atoms of the same elements exactly alike?
yes other than the electron count may differ.
Is compound a substance in which the atoms are alike but different from the atoms of other elements?
Compound or substance: a molecule containing two or more types of chemical elements.
Daltons atomic therory?
In the 1800s John Dalton did some experiments and these are some of his magnificent work: * all elements are composed of atoms. atoms can not be divided or destroyed * atoms of the same element are alike * .atoms of different elements are not alike * the atoms of two or more elements can join together to form compounds
What is one way that atoms of different elements are alike and one way they are different?
they are alike because they all have mass ther diffrent because there lines, and isotpes
What is one way that atoms of different elements are different and one way that they are alike?
they are alike because they all have mass ther diffrent because there lines, and isotpes
What can be made of atoms that are different or atoms that are alike?
Two or more atoms that are alike or different are called molecules.
Do All atoms of an element have to be exactly alike?
yes they do
