Atoms contain positively charged nucleus at the centre and negatively charged electrons revolving around the nucleus.
The nucleus consists of positively charged protons and neutral neutrons.
All atoms except positron (an isotope of hydrogen) have atleast one neutron.

∙ 14y agoAbsolutely. Atoms are composed of three types of sub-atomic particles, which are protons, neutrons, and electrons. And the protons and neutrons are themselves composed of quarks.

Are electrons made up of 1 atom?
No. Electrons are subatomic particles, meaning they are smaller than atoms. Atoms contain electrons, not the oter way around.
Are subatomic particles found inside atoms?
Yes, atoms contain subatomic particles.
Microscopic particles of matter that are smaller than a molecule?
atoms
What is smaller protons or atoms?
Protons are smaller than atoms. Protons are subatomic particles that are found within the nucleus of an atom along with neutrons. Atoms are made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons.
Does carbon atoms contain molecules?
No. A Carbon atom, like all atoms, only contain Subatomic Particles. A Molecule is a chain of atoms linked together with an atomic bond.
What are molecules and their subatomic particles?
Molecules contain atoms and these atoms contain subatomic particles.
Are particles smaller then atoms?
particle is a general term. subatomic particles are smaller than atoms. dirt particles, for example, are much bigger than atoms
Can atoms be made of smaller particles?
Yes - all atoms are made of smaller particles. Those particles are protons, neutrons, and electrons.
Are electrons made up of 1 atom?
No. Electrons are subatomic particles, meaning they are smaller than atoms. Atoms contain electrons, not the oter way around.
Are subatomic particles found inside atoms?
Yes, atoms contain subatomic particles.
Does particles have particles?
In a way they do, but even smaller "particles" are called atoms.
What findings led JJ Thomson to infer that particles are smaller than atoms do exist?
Particles are smaller
Why was Dalton's model of the atom changed after Thomson's experiment?
John Dalton's atomic theory indicated that atoms were indivisible spheres. When JJ Thomson did his work with cathode ray tubes, he discovered that atoms contain electrons, which meant that the atom is not indivisible, that there are smaller particles within.
What are the three subatomic particles of a molecule?
A molecule contains atoms e.g. water (H2O) The atoms, ( hydrogen and oxygen, and all other atoms) contain protons, neutrons in the nucleus of the atoms and electrons in energy shells around the nucleus. Protons, neutrons and electrons are sub-atomic particles.
A colliod has smaller particles than a solution?
No, a solution has much smaller particles than a colloid. In a solution the particles are individual atoms, molecules, or ions.
Did Dalton know that atoms contain subatomic particles?
No, Dalton believed that atoms were indivisible.
Did Democritus believe that atoms contained smaller particles?
He believed no
