Frequently Asked Questions

An atom is the smallest particle of an element that retains its chemical properties.

A molecule is a group of two or more atoms chemically bonded together.

Dalton’s theory states matter is made of indivisible atoms, identical for each element, combining in fixed ratios.

A chemical formula represents a compound using symbols and shows elements’ proportions.

Atomic mass unit is a standard mass unit equal to 1/12 the mass of one carbon-12 atom.

Atomicity is the number of atoms in a molecule of an element or compound.

A mole is the amount of substance containing Avogadro’s number of particles (6.022 × 10²³).

Mass is neither created nor destroyed during a chemical reaction.

Elements combine in a fixed mass ratio to form a compound.

It is the ratio of the average atomic mass of an element to 1/12 of a carbon-12 atom’s mass.
