Answer:

The characteristics are as follows:

-It is microscopic.

-It contains three sub atomic particles namely: electrons, protons and neutrons.

-It is the smallest unit of any substance (except for living bodies since smallest unit of them is cell).

-When seen from microscope atoms appear to be blur, spheres.

-They form ions(by losing or gaining electrons) and molecules(by combining with itself or other atoms).

Hope this helps :)

What's the difference between a conductor and an insulator? I'll mark you as brainliest

irina [24]

conductor are defined as the materials or substances that allow electricity to flow through them. Also, conductors allow heat to be transmitted through them. Examples of conductors are metals, the human body, Earth and animals. The human body is a strong conductor.

Any material that keeps energy such as electricity, heat, or cold from easily transferring through is an insulator. Wood, plastic, rubber, and glass are good insulator.
