What is a similarity between a proton and an electron?
electrons are on the outside and don't count as part of the atomic mass. Protons do count as part of the mass and are inside the atom.
What is the smallest part of an element that is still that element?
The smallest part of an element that still retains its properties is an atom.
What do you think happens to the size of an atom when atom looses an electron?
The atom would stay the same size because it would still have the same amount of energy levels. The mass of the atom would be slightly less though.No, an atom shrinks when loosing an electron.There are less electrons ('-'charges) left that are attracted by the same number of protons ('+'charges) in nucleus, so the atraction per electron is stronger.
What is the smallest part or fragment of an atom?
The smallest part or fragment of an atom is the Electon.
Which best describes the nucleus of an atom?
The nucleus of an atom is the densest part of an atom. It contains the protons and neutrons of an atom.
What are each part of the atom's charges?
Proton: positive charge Electron: negative charge Neutron: neutral
Positively charges central part of the atom?
Protons are the positively charged particles located in an atom's nucleus.
How relative atomic mass of an atom can be determined?
By adding the neutrons and the protons together, as the electrons are such a small part of the atom it does not matter.
Which part of an atom is the largest?
The nucleus contains the majority of the mass in an atom. The nucleus contains the protons and neutrons, which each have a relative mass of 1 amu. The electrons surround the nucleus and have a relative mass of 0 amu.
Where is each part of an atom found?
In the nucleus der....
When this part of an atom moves to another atom the losing atom has what charge?
Positive. The only (typical) parts of atoms that move are electrons which have a negative charge; therefore, if a neutral atom loses an amount of electrons (negative charges), the atom has more positive charges (from the protons) than negative charges which makes the atom positively charged overall.
What is most often displayed in a pie chart?
Relative amounts of each part of a whole
What does the name helium-3 tell about this atom?
The name helium tells that its atomic number is 2, containing 2 protons in each atom. The numerical part of the name shows that each atom also has one neutron.
Relative mass of electron?
1/1840 the mass if a hydrogen atom.
What kind of charge does each part of an atom have?
Neutron= neutral Protons=positive Electrons=negative
Is a molecule part of a atom?
no an atom is a part of a molecule.
What is a similarity between a proton and an electron?
electrons are on the outside and don't count as part of the atomic mass. Protons do count as part of the mass and are inside the atom.
