All matter in the universe is composed of the same three fundamental particles—protons, neutrons, and electrons—but the properties of different elements are determined by the specific number of protons in their nucleus (atomic number), with gold having 79 protons and electrons while iron has only 26, explaining why these materials exhibit vastly different characteristics like shine and rusting.

Are all atoms the same?
Are all atoms the same?
If we take the universe apart, we will discover that everything, a distant star, the ocean, or your own body, is made of the exact same three pieces: protons, neutrons, and electrons.
So, why does gold shine and iron rust?
The magic of nature is not in the bricks it uses, but in their exact quantity.
If you change the number of pieces, you completely transform the matter.
Gold has 79 electrons, iron only 26.
It's a fascinating building game. How do they join together? Continuous in the description.
