element
A pure substance is an element or a compound. In the case of an element, it is composed of all the same kind of atoms. In the case of a compound, the atoms of the elements are chemically bonded in definite proportions, meaning that all samples of the same compound are chemically the samel.
By definition, an Element contains only one kind of atom - atoms of that element. If it has more than one kind, it is a compound, not an element.
Potassium metal is a pure substance. In fact, it is an element as well. The reason potassium metal is an element is that it only contains one type of atom (all atoms of potassium have the same number of protons).
a pure substance is that which contains same atoms or same molecules..
By definition, an element is a substance with only one type of atom. So no, each element has its own type of atom.

The atom. Anything smaller is an atomic particle from which all elements are made.
what is a substance containing all of the same type of atom
The answer to this question depends on the unstated definition of "kind of atom". All atoms of one element have the same atomic number, which equals the number of protons in nuclei of the atoms. However, atoms of the same element may have different masses because of different number of neutrons in their nuclei.
An element is a substance that cannot be broken down into simpler substances. An atom is a single piece of an element. If you break an atom apart, you no longer have that substance.
Potassium metal is a pure substance. In fact, it is an element as well. The reason potassium metal is an element is that it only contains one type of atom (all atoms of potassium have the same number of protons).
an ion has a full "shell"
a pure substance is that which contains same atoms or same molecules..
A pure substance is either an element or compound. Elements are composed of only one kind of atom, and compounds are composed of a definite proportion of atoms of different elements that is always the same.
It is a molecule.
protons and electrons
