Generally speaking, an element is an atomic structure unique unto itself. By this I mean that a given element will have a certain number of electrons, neutrons, and protons, which no other element has. Every atom of this element is the same. This ignores the slight variations which create isotopes of various elements.

An element has only 1 type of atom.
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoThere is only one.
For example, there are only atoms of Au (gold) in Au. Think of an element as a pure non-composite substance, identifiable as itself down to the atomic level.

How many atoms are there in an element?
This depends on the mass of this element.
How many different types of atoms does sugar have?
Sugar has three kinds of atoms
What tells you how many atoms an element has?
1 mol of any chemical element has 6,022 140 857.10e23 atoms.
How many types of atoms can be found in a in a single element?
A pure element contains one sort of atoms, and all the elements have the same number of protons (which define the element). But the atoms can have different masses, so called "isotopes" (see link). Thus, chemically there is only one kind of atoms in a pure element, but there can be several physically different kinds of nuclei in a pure element.
How many atoms are in ununseptium?
Ununseptium is a chemical element formed from atoms and doesn't contain inside atoms.
How many types of atoms make up gold?
One you idiot it's an element Au
How many atoms are in the element copper and in the element carbon and in the element aluminum and how many atoms are in baking soda and how many atoms are in a sugar cube?
There are no "atoms in an element," but rather atoms OF an element. If you are trying to find the number of atoms in a sample of a pure element you divide its weight by its molar mass and then multiply by 6.022 x 10^23 to get the answer in atoms. The answer options are 2,3, or 4.
Is oil and water a element?
No. An element is made up of only one type of atom. Water and oil are made up of many different types of atoms, so they do not form an element.

Is water and oil combined a element?
No. An element is made up of only one type of atom. Water and oil are made up of many different types of atoms, so they do not form an element.
What is right numerically atoms for gold to be element?
Gold is the element gold no matter how many atoms of it you have.
What are the basic unit of a chemical element called?
many identical atoms Answer is= Atoms.

Name each element in glucose and state how many atoms of each element there are?
C6H12O6. Six carbon atoms, 12 hydrogen atoms and six oxygen atoms.
How many atoms are in the element rutherfordium?
Rutherfordium is a single chemical element.
What are the different types of atoms that make up all of the naturally occurring substances?
They are different kinds of atoms, plain as that Various numbers of protons, electrons, and neutrons that make them all different and have various properties There are many types of atoms such as Metals, Nonmetals, Metalloids, Noble Gases, Radioactive, Transition Metals, and such
