What did democritus call the smallest piece of chalk after breaking it over?
He was using this to compare it to the smallest part of an element ... an atom which he called "atomos" from the Greek origin
What name do we give to the tiniest piece of element?
The smallest particle of an element that still has all the properties of an element is an atom of that element.
What name do you give the tiniest piece of element?
the smallest piece of an element is called an atom
If you broke a piece of matter in to its smallest components you would be left with what?
Atoms... ---> protons, nuetrons, electrons ----> up and down quirks, subatomic particles and if you believe in string theory----. quarks are made up of vibrating springs.
What is the smallest piece of carbon dioxide called?
The smallest piece of carbon dioxide is called a molecule, which consists of one carbon atom bonded to two oxygen atoms.
What is the smallest piece of matter discovered?
Atoms
What is the smallest piece of matter that still has the properties?
An Atom.
What is the second smallest matter?
We could say what the second smallest piece of matter if we knew what the smallest piece of matter was. Since the smallest pieces of matter known are quarks-down, strange and bottom have the lowest charge -3, they can be regarded as the first, second and third smallest particles.
Why did Democritus call the smallest piece matter atoms?
Democritus called the smallest piece of matter "atoms" because in Greek, "atomos" means indivisible or uncuttable. He believed that all matter was made up of these tiny, indivisible particles that couldn't be divided any further.

What is the smallest piece of matter that has its own kind?
An atom is the smallest piece of matter that retains the properties of an element. It consists of a nucleus (protons and neutrons) surrounded by electrons. Each element has its own unique type of atom.
What is a piece of matter?
Small matter, this can be answered depending on how you look at it, originally atoms were named because they were believed to be the smallest particle of matter and cannot be split anymore but scientists now know that subatomic particles exist such as quarks. They and others are building blocks of matter. http://www.nyu.edu/pages/mathmol/textbook/atoms.html A particle is a very small piece of matter. Particles are part of atoms. Atoms are the smallest unit of all substances.
What is the name of the smallest particle of matter?
A quark is the smallest particle in matter.
What are smallest units of matter?
The smallest units of matter are the subatomic particles.

Which is the order of particle size from largest to smallest?
The term 'particle' broadly encompasses any relatively small piece of matter, but in particle and nuclear physics, quarks and electrons are smallest, followed by protons, then neutrons.
