To make you understand how atom and ion are different from each other, here are the some major differences between atom and ion:
Atom
- The Smallest unit of element
- Takes part in chemical reaction
- Not independent in solution
- Atoms form molecule
- Electrons and protons are equal
- Unstable
ION
- Single particle or collection of particles
- Cannot participate in chemical reaction
- Is independent in solution
- Ions form electrovalent bond
- Electrons and protons are unequal
- Stable
