Summary Introduction
Introduction:
The basic and smallest unit that forms all substances is an atom. The interaction of atoms results in the formation of molecules. The atoms have three important components. These are electrons, protons, and neutrons. The neutrons and protons are present inside the nucleus of the atom while the electrons revolve around the nucleus of the atom.
