Brief Explanations
An atom is the basic unit of a chemical element. It is the smallest unit of matter that retains the properties of an element. States of matter (like solid, liquid, gas) are different forms matter can take, not what an atom is. Energy is not made of atoms. Atoms make up matter, not energy.
