What is an atom?

Smallest building block of matter.

200

The charge of Hydrogen atom that loses an electron (approximately).

+1.

True/False: The atoms of a given element are identical, and atoms of different elements are different in some fundemental way.

False: Isotopes mean the atoms of a given element could have the same atomic number and number of electrons but different number of neutrons. Thus, atoms of a given element are NOT NECESSARILY IDENTICAL.

What is an electron (Must give the definition in terms of superposition)?

Superposition is the ability of a particle to be in multiple states at the same time until it measured or observed. An electron, by that definition, exists as a wave and a particle. An electron is seen as a particle with a negative charge when measured.
