A molecule is bigger than an atom.

∙ 12y agoA molecule consists of two or more atoms. A molecule is the smallest amount of a chemical compound, or an allotropic form containing multiple atoms of a single element (e.g. O2 - oxygen, O3 - ozone).
For the example of a molecule of water: if you break it down any more, it's no longer water, it's atoms of hydrogen and oxygen.

∙ 13y agoThat really depends on the individual element. Some, Hydrogen, are small. Some, Uranium, are large. In general, however, molecules are larger than elements because molecules are made up of elements.

∙ 14y agoA molecule is defined as an electrically neutral group of at least two atoms in a definite arrangement held together by very strong ( covalent ) chemical bonds.

Which is bigger atom electron molecule or cell?
An electron is a part of a atom, and an atom is part of a molecule, molecules make up a cell. So a cell is biggest.

Which is bigger atom electron molecule or cell?
An electron is a part of a atom, and an atom is part of a molecule, molecules make up a cell. So a cell is biggest.
Is a molecule bigger then a atom?
Yes, because molecules are made of atoms.

The Universe. an atom
Is an atom smaller than a molecule?
An atom is the basic unit of matter . It is virtually the smallest thing that exists and has the properties of an element . The size of an element can't really be measured . However , any amount of an element that consists of more than one atom would , of course , be larger than an atom . By definition , a molecule consists of 2 or more atoms , so no , an atom is not bigger than a molecule . (of course , this is taking in the average size of an atom . Atoms of extremely heavy elements , such as Uranium , would be comparable to the size of a molecule of hydrogen (h2) which is a very small molecule .
Is Be a atom or molecule?
Is Ne a atom or molecule
What is bigger a water molecule or carbon atom?
Glucose molecules are bigger than water molecules.
Why in a water molecule is the oxygen atom bigger then the nitrogen atom?
First of all, there is no nitrogen in a water molecule. A water molecule consists of one oxygen atom combined with two hydrogen atoms. Also known as H2O. However, it is also true that an oxygen atom is slightly bigger than a nitrogen atom. Oxygen has one more proton, and one more electron than nitrogen does. Neutron quantities vary, since there is more than one isotope of both oxygen and nitrogen.
Is a molecule part of a atom?
no an atom is a part of a molecule.
Is carbohydrate a molecule or atom?
