A compound is a particle made of multiple elements which are directly bonded to each other. Paracetamol (acetaminophen) contains an acetyl (CH3OCO) group, an amine group (NH) and a phenol group (C5H5COH) which are all bonded directly together it is indeed a compound.
compound
The smallest particle of a substance that retains all the properties of the substance and is composed of one or more atoms is a molecule.
A molecule.
in nuclear reactors and particle accelerators
Elements are composed of the same atomic atoms/molecules. This means that every particle in an element has the same number of protons in the nucleus.
Such a particle is called a molecule.
The elements are things in their purest form whereas compounds are multiple elements combined together to form a compound. For instance, Carbon (C) is an elements whereas Carbon Dioxide (CO2, or Carbon + two Oxygens) is a compound.
No.an electron is a subatomic particle (it acts like a true "point particle", occupying no volume)a compound is composed of two or more atoms of different elements, these atoms are held together by interactions between their outermost electrons (either electrostatic interactions or quantum mechanical interactions)
A molecule; the definition is: The smallest particle of a substance that retains the chemical and physical properties of the substance and is composed of two or more atoms; a group of like or different atoms held together by chemical forces.
A substance composed of two or more atoms of the same element is just a pure substance/element, a substance composed of different atoms is called a compound
Elements can be broken down into smaller pieces: a compounds smallest particle is a molecule
Two or more elements are chemically bonded.
The smallest particle of a covalent compound that shows the properties of that compound is a molecule.
A compound is still a type of pure substance because of its number of particles. In order to be a pure substance, something needs one particle, and even though a compound is made of multiple elements, it still has a single particle.
The smallest particle of a covalent compound that shows the properties of that compound is a molecule.
An alpha particle.
