Describe the structure of a general atom using the three basic subatomic particles?

∙ 14y ago
the smallest component of an element having the chemical properties of the element, consisting of a nucleus containing combinations of neutrons and protons and one or more electrons bound to the nucleus by electrical attraction; the number of protons determines the identity of the element.

∙ 14y agoAn atom is composed of a nucleus and an electron cloud (if there are associated electrons). The nucleus contains the protons and neutrons, bound together despite the mutual repulsion by the positive charges of the protons (in elements heavier than hydrogen). The electrons are arranged in energy levels or "shells" orbiting the nucleus.

What includes protons neutrons and electrons?
Atoms are the physical things that contain all these particles. The general term for all of them is Subatomic Particles.
What is the origin for physical property?
...the big bang? Physical properties, in general, are determined by the fundamental laws that govern our universe, ie Physics. In chemistry, most things are driven by charge and size of atoms and subatomic particles.
Who study the black holes and subatomic particles?
Black holes and subatomic particles are a subject of interest in the fields of astronomy, astrophysics, and particle physics. Perhaps the most famous to bring to light the notion that black holes could emit particle/antiparticle pairs and thus lose mass through loss of energy would be Professor Stephen Hawking, who proposed that black holes interact with the universe thermodynamically in this way and could potentially evaporate entirely. This radiation is often known as Hawking radiation.
Describe the general structure of Stonehenge?
Stonehenge is a monument that is made out of large stones. There is a circle of stones in Stonehenge, with several stones laying on top of the vertical stones.
Is it possible to positively charge an electron?
No, not quite. There is a particle called the anti-electron (or, more commonly, the "positron"), which has a positive charge. But you can't really consider it an "electron". In general, the subatomic particles have certain properties fixed, and you can't change them. This includes their mass (rest mass), their spin, and their charge.
What includes protons neutrons and electrons?
Atoms are the physical things that contain all these particles. The general term for all of them is 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
Why breakdown subatomic particles?
It would be easier to accurately answer this question if you gave a specific particle but in general, we gain a greater understanding of particles as we examine the structure the the mass consist of. For example, we have matter and matter is made of atoms or molecules. At higher magnifications, atoms and molecules start to manifest, arrange in a certain order, which defines the shape of a solid. When we go deeper, we see the atomic structure, such as a proton, that is made up of even more subatomic particles like quarks that are held together by gluons. So, we breakdown subatomic particles and examine their structure to gain a deeper understanding of what the particle consist of, how it reacts to different environments and conditions, and with the greatest hope, to learn what could have and how they were first created.
Describe the structure and general location of Salmonella Typhi?

What are the subatomic particles called inside of a atom?
The THREE sub-atomic particles in an atom are called: Proton, Neutron, and Electron. The (P)roton is (P)ositive + The (N)eutron is (N)eutral +/- The Electron is Negative. ( No trick for that ). The Electron is in the Electron cloud. Protons and Neutrons are both in the Nucleus of an atom. Nucleus = The middle of an atom.
Which models of the atom reflects the unpredictable motion of the electron?
Quantum mechanics explains the unpredictable nature of the electron (and of subatomic particles in general).
How old are electrons?
Not all electrons are the same age, since there are a variety of processes by which subatomic particles can change into other particles (by reason either of decay, or high energy collision with other particles). However in general, electrons formed not long after the Big Bang which was a bit less than fourteen billion years ago.
Does a neutron cell have a vacuole?
First of all, neutrons are not cells at all, they are subatomic particles. Second, neutrons do not have vacuoles. Lastly, if you want to know the cell that has a vacuole, it is a cell in general, specifically the plant cell, were they are larger.
What is the origin for physical property?
...the big bang? Physical properties, in general, are determined by the fundamental laws that govern our universe, ie Physics. In chemistry, most things are driven by charge and size of atoms and subatomic particles.
Describe the general process by which new elements are synthesized?
Scientists make synthetic elements by forcing nuclear particles to crash into one another.

What are the smallest objects?
That depends what you include under the term "objects". In general, those would be subatomic particles. Many of them are (in a sense) considered to have no volume. Some of them, such as photons and gravitons, have zero mass (rest mass; they will have some mass due to their energy).
