This name is the Greek word atomos.
An atom is the basic particle from which elements are made :D
An atom is the basic particle of an element. Atoms are considered to be the foundation of chemistry.
Democritus named his smallest piece of gold "atom," which means indivisible in Greek. This concept eventually led to the development of the modern atomic theory.
Democritus did not have experimental evidence to support his idea of the atom. Instead, his idea was based on philosophical reasoning and speculation.
Democritus' response was... There is a limit, if it is to remain in its original form. He concluded that matter can only be divided to its smallest particle... an atom, to retain it's physical characteristic.
These philosophers were Leukippus and his disciple Democritus.

The basic particle of an element is called an atom. Each atom is made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons.
Democritus
Some say that Democritus named the atom "ATOMUS" which means "invisible" others say John Dalton but i would go with the former (Democritus).
The smallest particle of matter is called an atom. It is the basic unit of a chemical element and retains the properties of that element.
Basically, atoms are made up of subatomic particles. Subatomic, sub- meaning smaller that, so subatomic particles means "a particle smaller than an atom". So It means that it is a particle within the atom.
Electron. It revolves the nucleus containing protons and neutrons and is the basic reason behind chemical reactions.According to the simplest Bohr model of the atom, the basic negatively charged particle is the electron.Electrons
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
Electron(s).
The atom was not discovered by Democritus; Leukipus an Democitus proposed the notion of atom, but only intuitively, not experimentally.
