How many particles do the atom have?
5, electron, proton, neutron, nucleus, and electron cloud.
What heappens to an atom that experiences radioactive decay?
Electron capture is the absorption of an electron by an atomic nucleus if that nucleus is neutron poor. An electron is captured, usually from an inner electron shell of that atom, and it will convert a proton in the nucleus into a neutron. We know that a neutron is converted into a proton and an electron in neutron decay, so it might be looked at as something of an opposite nuclear reaction where a proton and an electron combine to form a neutron.
What is the organization of an atom?
It is proton neutron in the nucleus and then electrons in the electron cloud.
What are the three pieces to an atom?
Proton = positive charge Neutron = neutral charge Electron = negative charge Please note that the basic parts of an atom do not include only the protons, neutrons and electrons. The basic parts are the nucleus and electron cloud. the protons and neutrons are essentially in the nucleus and the electrons are in the cloud surrounding the nucleus
Where are proton neutron and electron located in an atom?
protons and nuetrons are in the nucleus.electrons are in the electron cloud surrounding the nucleus
What is an atom name that is made of a proton a neutron and an electron?
It is the atom of deuterium. Its nucleus is composed of a proton and one neutron. The atom has one electron that is orbiting around the nucleus.
How many particles do the atom have?
5, electron, proton, neutron, nucleus, and electron cloud.
What are the subparticles of an atom?
proton, neutron, electron- in the nucleus
What is the difference between a proton an electron and a neutron and where can they be found?
a proton is a positively charged particle that is found in the nucleus of an atom, a neutron is a particle that has no charge and is also found in the nucleus of an atom, an electron is a negatively charged atom that is constantly circling the nucleus of an atom.

What is the positivley charged particle in the nucleus of and atom?
The proton is positive, the neutron is neutral and the electron is negative.
Where are proton neutron and electron located in an atom?
protons and nuetrons are in the nucleus.electrons are in the electron cloud surrounding the nucleus
Where are proton neutron and electron located inside an atom?
Protons and neutrons are present in the nucleus. Electrons are present in orbits of an atom. Where as proton are located at centre of the nucleus.
Can electrons be found in the nucleus of an atom?
Though the electron itself is not present in the nucleus of an atom, the elementary particles that make up the electron are present inside the neutron. In other words, a neutron is made up of an electron and a proton. How do we know this? Because when a neutron decays, it slowly decays into a proton and an electron. It's a cycle.
When a neutron decays what does it form?
Outside the nucleus, free neutrons are unstable and have a mean lifetime of 885.7±0.8 s (about 15 minutes), decaying by emission of a negative electron and antineutrino to become a proton: : n0 → p+ + e− + νe
