    Atoms are the basic building blocks of ordinary matter. Atoms can join together to form molecules, which in turn form most of the objects around you.

    Smallest particle of an element which contains all the properties of that element is called atom. In a chemical reaction where two or more elements are involved to form a compound, the constituents elements participate in their atomic state - and the smallest part of the compound thus formed is molecules. Leucippus of Miletus and his pupil Democritus first gave the idea and concept of atom.
