Answer:

atom

An atom is the smallest unit of a pure substance or element that can exist and still retain the properties of the original substance or element.

They're typically made up of three main parts: protons, neutrons and electrons. Think of the protons and neutrons as together forming a “sun”, or nucleus, at the centre of the system. The electrons orbit this nucleus, like planets. If atoms are impossibly small, these subatomic particles are even more so.

There are more than 109 different types of atom - one for each element. Differences between the atoms give the elements their different chemical properties. In 2001, there were 115 known elements. However, those above 109 are highly unstable and have been made in only tiny quantities.

Atoms are single neutral particles. Molecules are neutral particles made of two or more atoms bonded together.
