The atomic number, the number of protons
A mineral is defined as a compound having a fixed chemical composition ... Thus an element is not a mineral.
relative atomic mass
An atom is the smallest unit of an element, so every atom corresponds to a specific element, such as hydrogen or oxygen. However, an element is defined by its unique number of protons and can exist as a collection of atoms, such as in a molecule or solid form. Therefore, while an atom is always an element, an element can consist of many atoms.
The smallest unit of an element that still maintains its chemical properties is an atom. Each element is uniquely defined by the number of protons in its nucleus, which stays constant in all atoms of that element.
Hydrogen. Atomic number is defined by the number of protons in an element and increases from left to right (H=1, He=2, Li=3, etc.).
smallest particle of an element that retains the properties of that element.

True
Elements are defined by the number of protons they have in their nucleus, known as the atomic number. Each element has a unique atomic number that distinguishes it from other elements on the periodic table.
Changing the number of neutrons in an atom affects its isotope but does not change its fundamental chemical identity. An element is defined by the number of protons in its nucleus (its atomic number), while isotopes have varying numbers of neutrons. Thus, changing the number of neutrons does not create a new element.
A mineral is defined as a compound having a fixed chemical composition ... Thus an element is not a mineral.
An element is defined a "type of atom"; to be more precise, all the atoms in an element have the same number of protons (but not necessarily the same number of neutrons).
There isn't an element that is "definitely male." Elements are chemical substances defined by their atomic structure and properties, not by gender characteristics.
An atom is the smallest part of an element that displays the chemical properties of that element. Each element is defined by the unique number of protons in its atom's nucleus, which determines its chemical behavior.
That's because of the way "compound" is defined. If atoms of an element combine with other atoms of the SAME element, then it's not called a "compound".
Athleticism is human bodily skill and training as an element in many competitive sports.
An element is defined by the number of protons present in the nucleus of the atom. The atomic number just happens to correspond with the number of protons.
