Question

‘Cl’ represents Chlorine atom, ‘Cl2’ represents Chlorine molecule.
List out any two differences between atoms and molecules.

Answer 1

1) When atoms combine in different numbers to form a molecule, the end result can vary. For example, when two atoms of oxygen combine to form a molecule, it becomes O2 which is the oxygen we breathe in. But when three oxygen atoms combine to form an O3 molecule, it becomes Ozone.
2) when similar atoms combine together in varying numbers, molecules of different properties can be formed. But when similar molecules combine together in any numbers, a simple product is formed.

Answer 2

Dear Student,

◆ Atoms Vs Molecules -

• Atoms are smallest part of element while molecules are formed by two or more atoms.
• Atoms are always of one element while molecules can be of different elements.
• Atoms can't be separated by chemical reactions while molecules can be separated by chemical reactions.
• Examples of atoms - S, Cl, O, N, C, etc. Examples of molecules - Cl2, N2, O2, CO2, SO2, etc.

Thanks dear. Hope this helps you...
