There is no such thing as an atom made of atoms. A molecule made of atoms of different types is a molecular compound.

Is a atom smaller then a molecule?

Yes, an atom is smaller than a molecule. Atoms are the basic building blocks of matter and cannot be broken down further by chemical means, while molecules are made up of two or more atoms bonded together.


Oxygen molecules are made of 2 oxygen atoms that are bound together. Ozone molecules which are very different from oxygen molecules are made of 3 oxygen atoms that are bound together.?

Yep. That is true.


What is the difference between elements and atoms and compounds?

An atom is a structure of protons, neutrons and electrons. A collection of atoms that all share the same number of protons are all given the same element name (i.e. all carbon atoms have exactly 6 protons, and all helium atoms have 2). a compound is a collection of atoms of different elements that are bonded together. A good example of this is water, which is made of two Hydrogen atoms and one Oxygen atom bound together.


What is the description why stubances can be classified as belements or compondus in science?

Element - An element made up with atoms of the same kind.Compound - A compound is a substance containing tw or more types of atom chemically bonded.For exampleOxygen gas is made from oxygen molecules. These molecules are each made of two oxygen atoms bound together. As only oxygen atoms are present th substance is classified as an element. Elements can found on the periodic table.Carbon dioxide gas however has molecules made from a carbon atom bound to two oxygen atoms. As the substance contains both carbon and oxygen atoms it is described as a compound.

What are the particles that make up atoms called?

Atoms are made up of tiny particles called electrons. The nucleus of an atom contains a mix of positively charged protons and neutrual neutrons. An atom is classified by the number of protions compared to the number of electrons. If it is neutral it is classified as an ion, if it has more protons the atom is positively charged, and if it has more electrons than the atom is negatively charged. If a group of atoms are bound together they become a molecule.


Is carbon disulfide made up of atoms or molecules?

Sulfur dioxide is a molecule composed of one sulfur atom bound to two oxygen atoms.


Is gold an atom or molecule?

Gold is an element made up of atoms. Each gold atom is a single, indivisible unit. It is not a molecule because it does not consist of multiple atoms chemically bonded together.


What is CUSO4 made up of?

Copper sulfate (CuSO4) is made up of one copper (Cu) atom, one sulfur (S) atom, and four oxygen (O) atoms. It is a blue crystalline solid that is commonly used as a fungicide, algaecide, and in various industrial applications.


Is an element a substance made up of different kinds of atoms bonded together?

No it isn't. An element is one kind of atom, it is not made of different kinds of atoms.


Is DNA an atom?

No, DNA is not an atom. DNA is a molecule made up of atoms, specifically carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and phosphorus. Atoms are the basic building blocks of all matter, while molecules are made up of atoms bonded together.
