You can combine the same atoms into different larger elements. It's like that. The same physical laws, but the combinations are infinite (or at least uncountable).

The other concept is that the laws are different, but not true infinite combinations within reach.

Or both.

What combines the atoms differently when the laws of combining atoms are the same?

What do you mean? It's chemistry...

The question is if the laws of physics are deterministic or not. If the rules are the same, then the result would be the same and all the universes in that case would be identifical.

The multi universe theory assumes randomness, undeterministic physics or that every universe has different initial properties.

Oh. You literally have no idea what these words mean. Got it.
