Summary
An element is a fundamental classification of atomic matter where differentiation of particles is made based on the number of protons found in their nucleus. So far 118 elements are known to exist either by producing them artificially or finding them naturally in the environment. Elements are sorted on the Periodic Table of the Elements in ascending order and are usually also provide the state of matter they exist in at STP.
