If this atom is part of a compound, the properties change.

I Mean, the properties of Oxygen in the molecule O2 is Different from that in compound CO2

Conc. Atoms lose their properties if they form a compound with different atoms

There are three stable Isotopes of Oxygen: 16O, 17O, and 18O. Their half lives vary and so do their relative atomic masses. As a result they have slight differences in their physical properties.

When all atoms are the same is a what?

When all atoms are the same, it forms a chemical element. Each element is characterized by a unique number of protons in its nucleus, which determines its chemical properties. Examples of elements include oxygen, carbon, and hydrogen.


What is the smallest part of an carbon with all the same properties is called?

The smallest part of carbon with all the same properties is called an atom. Carbon atoms are the building blocks of all carbon-based materials and have the same chemical properties regardless of their arrangement in a molecule.


Atoms of any one type of element such as gold all possess the same number of what?

Protons. All atoms of the same element have the same number of protons in their nucleus, which defines their element and gives them their unique properties.


Why are all atoms of the same type different?

The atoms may be slightly different in shape or size etc. however if they are all of the same type they will all behave and react in the same way. Eg. Two atoms of Frankium may be different in the ways I have described but their chemical properties, behaviour and reactivity are the same.


What is the difference between elements and atoms and compounds?

An atom is a structure of protons, neutrons and electrons. A collection of atoms that all share the same number of protons are all given the same element name (i.e. all carbon atoms have exactly 6 protons, and all helium atoms have 2). a compound is a collection of atoms of different elements that are bonded together. A good example of this is water, which is made of two Hydrogen atoms and one Oxygen atom bound together.

Why do all atoms of an element have the same chemical prperties?

Because they are all the same type of atoms. Oxygen is an element. If you have 10 oxygen atoms, they will all behave like oxygen, since they are the same element.


Are oxygen atoms different to oxygen atoms?

No, oxygen atoms are all the same. Each oxygen atom has 8 protons in its nucleus and is chemically identical to every other oxygen atom.


When all atoms are the same is a what?

When all atoms are the same, it forms a chemical element. Each element is characterized by a unique number of protons in its nucleus, which determines its chemical properties. Examples of elements include oxygen, carbon, and hydrogen.


What is the smallest particle of an element that still has the same chemical properties?

The smallest particle of matter that keeps all the same properties of oxygen is an oxygen atom. If you mean oxygen gas, O2, then it would be a molecule of two oxygen atoms covalently bonded.


All oxygen atoms have the same mass?

yes.


John Dalton concluded that all the atoms of a single what have the same mass?

He concluded that all atoms of an element have same mass and identical chemical and physical properties.


Why isn't oxygen a compound?

Because all of the atoms in it have the same number of protons.


Did Dalton say that all atoms are the same size?

No, Dalton did not say that all atoms are the same size. Instead, Dalton proposed that all elements are composed of indivisible particles called atoms, and that atoms of different elements have different sizes and properties.


Do atoms have the same properties as an element?

No, atoms are the smallest units of matter that retain the properties of an element. The properties of an element are determined by the number of protons in its nucleus, which defines its atomic number and unique characteristics. When atoms combine to form molecules, the properties may change due to new interactions.


What is the smallest part of an carbon with all the same properties is called?

The smallest part of carbon with all the same properties is called an atom. Carbon atoms are the building blocks of all carbon-based materials and have the same chemical properties regardless of their arrangement in a molecule.


What are elements that have the same atoms and the same elements?

Isotopes are elements that have the same number of protons (same element) but different numbers of neutrons in the nucleus. All isotopes of an element have the same chemical properties but may have different physical properties due to their different atomic masses.


Atoms of any one type of element such as gold all possess the same number of what?

Protons. All atoms of the same element have the same number of protons in their nucleus, which defines their element and gives them their unique properties.
