Every atom has a certain number of protons, neutrons, and electrons. Different elements have different amounts of these.
Particularly, different elements have different numbers of protons. For example, if an atom only has 1 proton it must be hydrogen.
Elements are pure substances that cannot be broken down by chemical means. The atoms of each element have a number of protons that is unique to each element. The number of protons makes one atom different from another.
The number of protons in the nucleus. This gives the element its elemental number. I.E. Carbon has 6 protons and is element 6.
An atom.
atom and elements are different because one atom makes an element and a element is a pure substance and a atom is a basic particle
this is because matter is what makes up an element
in an atom protone makes the each element unique
The atoms of each element have a number of protons that is unique to each element. The number of protons makes one atom different from another.
The atoms of each element have a number of protons that is unique to each element. The number of protons makes one atom different from another.
The number of protons in the nuclei of their atoms. This is the atomic number of an element and each element has its own unique atomic number.
Gold is an element because it consists of only one type of atom, which is gold. It cannot be broken down into simpler substances by chemical means. This makes gold a pure substance with unique chemical properties that define it as an element.
Each element has a different number of neutrons.
The only thing that makes an atom is the number of protons it has. e.g Hydrogen always has 1 proton, Lithium has 3 protons. This is represented as the relative atomic number. Don't get confused with neutrons though. All elements can have different numbers of neutrons and these are called isotopes. But no matter what if you've got 3 protons you are always Lithium.
The basic material that makes up all matter and is different from any other in its atomic structure is the element. Each element is defined by the number of protons in its nucleus, which determines its unique atomic number.
Each element has a unique number of protons. If another atom has the same number of protons as that element, it is the same element.
it is unique because it is the only kind of element out there
Element do not repeat, each element is Unique.
There is nothing that makes any individual unique.
