The smallest particle of an element that retains the properties of the element is called an atom.
- Each element is made up of only one kind of atom. A piece of gold is made of only gold atoms. The atoms of one element are different from the atoms of any other element.
- For example, the atoms of oxygen are different from the atoms of nitrogen. But all atoms of oxygen are chemically identical and all atoms of nitrogen are chemically identical.
