differentiate between an atom and a molecule

AleenaSudheer313: it should be detailed

sarahpearson1054: An atom is the smallest constituent unit of ordinary matter that constitutes a chemical element. Every solid, liquid, gas, and plasma is composed of neutral or ionized atoms. Atoms are extremely small; typical sizes are around 100 picometers. A molecule is an electrically neutral group of two or more atoms held together by chemical bonds. Molecules are distinguished from ions by their lack of electrical charge.

Answer:

atom is the smallest part.. and a molecule is the set of atoms

Answered by sweta7570

An atom is just that - a single atom or the smallest particle of an element. A molecule is two or more atoms joined together by what is called a COVALENT bond. There are other types of bond but molecules use ONLY covalent bonds in which outer electrons are shared between atoms.
