  1. An atom, the number of protons/electron give the identity of the compound and don't change unless it is in a nuclear reaction.


  2. IF YOURE TALKING CHEMICALS the answer would be a MOLECULE (atoms are elements) these are the building blocks of chemicals such as H2O water =a chemical consisting of hydrogen atoms and an oxygen atom thus the smallest particle of water  is one water molecule consisting of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom----H2O--- theres your answer!(unless you mean"chemical elements" in which case THE ANSWER IS OF COURSE AN ATOM
