Unit stats are dependable on number of model?

I have a question about unit stat. I don't understand if the stats are for the single model or for the whole unit.
I know that health is shared between model, but armor, attack, defence and strenght are the stats of a single soldier?
For example if I have a unit with 10 models and a single model unit (with 10 times the stat) are they equal?

Yes and no. The stats outside of health are true for every model as you said, but their damage won't necessarily be the same. Against a small character, a dragon will do a much better job than monstrous infantry. However, against infantry or cavalry monstrous infantry will tend to do more damage when they have most of their models attacking. For example, a unit of vargheists (monstrous flying infantry) will do devastating damage against a unit of empire crossbowmen in a short amount of time. A terrorgheist can also wreck that unit of crossbowmen, but will do so more slowly and is much more efficient against enemies with fewer models.

The stats on the unit card are the stats for every single model in the unit. At MA 20 every model in the unit will make their attacks with MA 20. One spearman has MA 20 and 10 Spearmen have MA 20.

also note that health isn't really "shared", per se. Each model has its own health pool, the total hp of the unit is the sum of all of these. but if you have a unit with ten models and 800 hp, each model has 80 hp. If the unit is hit by an area spell that deals 80 damage to it, each model can take 8 damage and will each have 72 remaining, so each will life. But if a model takes a melee attack that deals 80 damage to it, it will lose all its hp and die while the others are untouched.

I think if a unit card say 10.000 health and it have 100 units each of them have 100 health
a dragon with 10.000 health have 10.000 health that's also the reason they die more quickly
it's not being spread out.

also note that if a unit with high per hit damage but low or no splash attacks hits a model with low hp, most of the damage dealt will be wasted. Units with splash attacks will divide their damage per hit between the models that are dealt damage.
like, a theoretical single entity with 600 post-mitigation damage but only a max splash of 4, attacking an infantry unit where each model has 80 hp, will kill four models by dealing each of them 80 damage, for a total of 320. But the remaining 280 damage of the attack will do nothing.
