Atoms are normally identified according to the element of which that atom is an example. And that, in turn, is determined by the number of protons in the atom's nucleus. So, any atom that has just one proton is a hydrogen atom. If it has two protons it is a helium atom. And so forth.

What type of atoms make up an atom?
atoms cannot makeup atoms. atoms are the smallest thing. it is unknown what makes an atom at the moment and it is unknown to science what the smallest thing is although atoms are identified as the smallest thing known False, atoms are made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons.
What is the splitting of atoms into smaller atoms?
Nuclear fission is the splitting of atoms.
What are the two ways nuclear energy can be released?
Fusion (combining light atoms into heavier atoms), and fission (splitting heavy atoms).
Dalton's atomic theory stated that every element was made of atoms that could not be subdivided atoms of the same element are like and?
atoms are made of protons, neutrons, and electrons.
Can free electrons collide with atoms?
Yes, free electrons can collide with atoms.
How many atoms have been identified?
92 atoms have been identified, i think(:
How many kinds of atoms have scientist identified?
118 atoms/elements.
How is atom identified?
atoms are identified by using a very super Strong microscope. You cant see them because they are so small (with your bare eye)
How do scientists know atoms exist if atoms are so small?
Atoms could be identified by various technique. Single crystal X-ray diffraction is the most important in that.
What is the difference between solutions and compounds?
thet can be identified as makong sure 4 other materials without breaking atoms..
An element is determined by the number of?
An element can be identified by the number of protons in the nucleus of its atoms.
What element is naturally found on earth but is labeled as a laboratory made element on the periodic table?
Plutonium was first produced in 1940 and identified from atoms resulting from human activity. In 1971, it was identified as naturally occurring in trace amounts.
How many unique chemical environments can be identified using proton NMR spectroscopy for the hydrogen atoms in propan-2-ol?
the number 3
Why do scientist use model to represent atoms?
So that it can be identified by an enlarged picture
How many elements identified in term of their atoms?
Thus far (2012) there have been 118 unique elements identified, the most recent being Ununoctium, discovered in 2003. >> Ununoctium: symbol Uuo, at. no. 118, at. wt. 294 ... it's man made and Radioactive.
If two covalently bonded atoms are identical the bond is identified as?
it is non polar covalent
Does the diamond have a cleavage or fracture?
Diamond stone, because of its lattice structure of carbon atoms, is identified as an 'octahedral; perfect and easy' cleavage (according to Wikipedia). Read more, below.
