Solution

Atom is the smallest unit of particle which cannot be divided further by any chemical means. However, by other means, atoms can be formed:

  1. Atoms are composed of a nucleus in the center containing protons, neutrons, and electrons surrounding the nucleus.
  2. Atoms are formed by the fission process of Uranium into smaller atoms.
  3. The Big Bang and Supernova events are real-life examples of the formation of atoms in a vast quantity.
