A sub atomic particle which determines the atomic number?

Protons are subatomic particles that determine the atomic number of an element. The number of protons in an atom's nucleus is what defines its atomic number; this uniquely identifies each element on the periodic table.


What subatomic particle helps identify the element's identity?

There is no individual sub-atomic particle that is responsible for the identity of an element. It is the way the electrons, protons and (neutrons) are arranged in an element that gives it it's identity.


What is the name of the smallest paricle of an element that has the properties of that element?

An atom is the smallest particle of an element that has the properties of that element. The atom consists of a certain amount of electrons, protons and usually neutrons. The amount of each of these sub-atomic particles is what makes an element. No Sub-Atomic Particles have any characterisitics of an element. It is the collective arrangement of electrons and protons (and usually neutrons) which gives an element its characteristics. An atom is the smallest particle that has elemental characteristics.


What is the smallest unit of an element that still can be identifled as a specific element?

The atom is the smallest particle of an element that retains it's characteristics. Sub-atomic particles such as protons, neutrons and electrons form the atom and it is the amount of each of these sub-atomic particles that make the element that element.


What atomic particle that is negatively charged?

This is the particle in an orbital in the space around the atoms nucleus and it is called an electron.

Is silver a subatomic particle?

No -- silver is an element. It's smallest possible component is an atom of silver, which (obviously) can not be sub-atomic.


Is an electron a sub atomic particle?

Yes.


What is the negative subatomic particle in an atom is called?

Negatively charged sub-atomic particle: electron. Positively charged sub-atomic particle: proton. Neutrally charged sub-atomic particle: neutron.
