Elements are identified based on the number of protons in their atoms, which is known as the atomic number. Each element has a unique atomic number, allowing scientists to distinguish between different elements.
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...
Elements are pure substances made up of only one type of atom, while atoms are the smallest units of matter that make up elements. Elements have specific properties based on the number of protons in their nucleus, while atoms can combine to form molecules with different properties.
Elements are substances made up of only one type of atom, which can be identified by their atomic number on the periodic table. Compounds are substances made up of two or more different types of atoms chemically bonded together, which can be identified by their chemical formula showing the types and numbers of atoms present.
Robert Bunsen, a German chemist, is known for discovering the elements cesium and rubidium in 1860 by using spectroscopic analysis. These elements were identified using the characteristic spectral lines emitted by their atoms when heated in a Bunsen burner flame.
Yes, atoms make up almost everything, they can only be broken down into protons, neutrons and electrons. An element is a substance found on the periodic table with certain rules and regulations given to each element. An element is made up only of atoms. A compound is a mixture of two or more elements that can be broken down into elements again, it is not a pure substance as such. So a compound is made up of elements, elements are made of atoms.
How are elements described in terms of their atoms
Scientists have identified 118 elements, each made up of unique atoms with different numbers of protons in their nucleus. These elements combine in various ways to form all the matter in the universe.
92 atoms have been identified, i think(:
Molecules Atoms which are elements make up molecules. Protons and electrons make up atoms.
Thus far (2012) there have been 118 unique elements identified, the most recent being Ununoctium, discovered in 2003. >> Ununoctium: symbol Uuo, at. no. 118, at. wt. 294 ... it's man made and Radioactive.

How are elements and atoms related? An element is a substance that contains only a single type of atom. The number of atoms is not important as long as all the atoms are of the same type. You cannot separate an element into other substances..... there are as many elements as atoms - more them 100.

All elements are composed of atoms.
