Question
does the model show an atom, molecule, or compound? 2 point hydrogen h₂ atom molecule compound does the model show an atom, molecule, or compound? 2 points
An atom is the smallest unit of an element. A molecule is formed when two or more atoms bond together. A compound is a molecule that contains at least two different elements. In the model \(H_2\), there are two hydrogen atoms bonded together. Since it is made of two atoms of the same element (hydrogen), it is a molecule. It is not an atom (as there are two atoms) and not a compound (no different elements).
