An atom is the smallest piece of an element that can be identified as that element.
The number of protons in an atom is determined by the element's atomic number, which is unique to each element. The atomic number represents the number of protons in the nucleus of the atom, defining its identity as a specific element.
The number of protons in an atom of an element is equal to the number of electrons in that atom which is equal to that element's atomic number.
The smallest quantity of an element is an atom.
An atom is an element. Every atom has a certain amount of protons, neutrons and electrons and these are what define which element that atom is.
By definition, it will always be an element, never a compound.
An atom with 7 protons is a nitrogen atom. Protons determine the element of an atom, so an element with 7 protons is always nitrogen, which has the atomic number 7.
YES
An atom is the basic unit of any chemical element, and each chemical element is represented by two letters. The first of these two letters is always capital, and the second is always lowercase. Thus only one capital can be used to describe an atom of an element.
An oxide always has at least one oxygen atom as well as at least one atom of a different element.
Yes, the amount of protons within the atom is always equal to its atomic number. If a proton is removed, you get a different element.
An atom of the element with atomic number 6 always has 6 protons in its nucleus. This element is carbon, and the number of protons determines its atomic number on the periodic table.
An isotope shares the atomic number with its element atom. How does it differ from the element atom?
The smallest part of an element that has the properties of that element is the atom.
Not always. Some atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons are radioactive, whereas the other atoms are not.
16 The atomic number of an element is always the same as the number of protons in an atom of the element.
An atom is the smallest piece of an element that can be identified as that element.
