Also known as element, atomic element, chemical elements
species of atoms having the same number of protons in the atomic nucleus and the same chemical properties, but not necessarily the same mass, or the same stability (or half-lifetime if they are unstable)
A chemical element is a type of substance made up of atoms that all have the same number of protons in their nucleus and behave the same way chemically, even though individual atoms of that element might have different masses or levels of stability. Chemical elements matter because they are the fundamental building blocks of all matter, and understanding them helps us identify and predict how different substances will interact with each other.
