Molecules or atoms different state
-
how can just one atom be a liquid or sold or gas, etc? won't it still look and act the exact same no matter what state it's in? It still has electrons and a nucleus. What would the change look like on the atomic level in these different states?

An atom is the smallest particle of an element that retains the chemical properties of that element.Atoms are electrically neutral, with a positively charged nucleus that binds one or more electrons in motion around it
