You suppose reality is made up of individual bits of "matter" called "atoms"? And that these things can not exist in of themselves (free state)?

The more powerful question you should be asking is, "why do scientists believe matter can be created and/or destroyed", when that violates their own laws of thermodynamics that state matter can not be created and/or destroyed?

You also need to ask, "why do we still believe in matter/atom concept?", when it is clear mainstream mathematical physics has made the concept of matter/atom too complex to understand?

What the meaning of molecule?

One of the very small invisible particles of which all matter is supposed to consist., The smallest part of any substance which possesses the characteristic properties and qualities of that substance, and which can exist alone in a free state., A group of atoms so united and combined by chemical affinity that they form a complete, integrated whole, being the smallest portion of any particular compound that can exist in a free state; as, a molecule of water consists of two atoms of hydrogen and one of oxygen. Cf. Atom.


Why can't metals conduct electricity in gaseous state?

In the gaseous state, metals exist as individual atoms or molecules instead of a solid lattice structure. This prevents the free movement of electrons needed for conductivity. Additionally, in a gas-phase environment, the atoms or molecules are typically too far apart for efficient electron transfer.


Why does ionization take place in gaseous atoms?

Because in gaseous state all the atoms are comparable. In natural state some atoms (Elements) exist in solid state some in liquid and some in gaseous state.


The state with positively charged atoms energized so that some break free of the nucleus but still move with it is called?

The state you are referring to is known as a plasma. In a plasma, atoms have lost some of their electrons, resulting in positively charged ions and free electrons. This high-energy state allows ions to move freely while still being bound to the nucleus.


Why do noble gases exist independently in nature?

Noble gases have completely filled orbitals. They are stable, chemically inert, do not generally form compounds and hence exist as isolated atoms.

Is all the atoms cannot exist in free state?

Most atoms are found in chemical compounds or bonded to other atoms, as opposed to existing in a free state. Atoms are constantly interacting with other atoms through chemical bonds to form molecules. However, certain noble gases, such as helium and neon, can exist in a relatively stable and unreactive free state.


Why is all compounds molecules?

All elements and compounds are present in molecular state. They cannot be found as individual atoms. Atoms cannot exist in free state.


Is all molecules compound?

All elements and compounds are present in molecular state. They cannot be found as individual atoms. Atoms cannot exist in free state.


In what state of matter do atoms of all elements exist?

Atoms of all elements exist in the state of matter known as the gas phase.


Why can some atoms exist independently?

bcz their energy is low thats why they can exist independently while the energy of some atoms is so high that they can only exist as ions or molecuoles not as free atoms


Why alkaline metals not exist naturally in free state?

Akaline metal do not exist in free state due to high level of ionization energy in them.


Why quarks do not exist in free state?

Actually quarks can exist freely.


Why chlorine is not in free stage?

Chlorine does not exist as seperate atoms as it often tends be stable by obtaining an electron from another atom. However, the element chlorine exists in free state as gaseous chlorine molecules.
