An atom is smaller.
A molecule contains more than one atom.
NH3 is a molecule. It consists of one nitrogen atom bonded to three hydrogen atoms.
well Mg is an element ( I Magnesium) and O is oxygen hence MgO is definitely a molecule not an atom ...
Yes. One carbon atom is bonded to one oxygen atom by two covalent bonds and one coordinate covalent/dative bond, to form a complete molecule.
Carbon monoxide is a type of molecule. It contains 1 carbon atom and 1 oxygen atom
An atom of an element is usually smaller than a molecule of a compound. Molecules are made by bonding 2 or more atoms, of one or more elements. The molecule is the smallest particle of a compound.
A molecule contains more than one atom.
An atom is the basic unit of matter . It is virtually the smallest thing that exists and has the properties of an element . The size of an element can't really be measured . However , any amount of an element that consists of more than one atom would , of course , be larger than an atom . By definition , a molecule consists of 2 or more atoms , so no , an atom is not bigger than a molecule . (of course , this is taking in the average size of an atom . Atoms of extremely heavy elements , such as Uranium , would be comparable to the size of a molecule of hydrogen (h2) which is a very small molecule .
there is one atom of oxygen in Carbon monoxide (CO) i.e. half molecule of oxygen.
When one atom of sulfur reacts with one molecule of oxygen, they combine to form one molecule of sulfur dioxide. This reaction involves the sulfur atom bonding with the oxygen atom to create the sulfur dioxide molecule, which has one sulfur atom and two oxygen atoms.
A molecule is composed of one or more atoms that are properly bonded to each other. If a molecule contains more than one atom, each atom is then a partial molecule as opposed to a whole molecule. Therein lies the difference.
NH3 is a molecule. It consists of one nitrogen atom bonded to three hydrogen atoms.
well Mg is an element ( I Magnesium) and O is oxygen hence MgO is definitely a molecule not an atom ...
I think that there is one atom of hydrogen and one of chlorine.
Yes. One carbon atom is bonded to one oxygen atom by two covalent bonds and one coordinate covalent/dative bond, to form a complete molecule.
There is one atom of that element in the molecule.
The smallest unit of salt that is still salt is a molecule. Salt is typically composed of one sodium ion (Na+) and one chloride ion (Cl-), which together form a neutral molecule of sodium chloride (NaCl). Each molecule of NaCl contains one atom of sodium and one atom of chlorine.
