What is the subatomic particle of an atoms?
electrons the smallest but weigh as much as protons neutrons weigh nothing ~Kay
Are electrons larger than neutrons and protons?
no. protons and neutrons are MUCH larger than electrons.
What is the lightest subatomic particle of an atom?
electrons the smallest but weigh as much as protons neutrons weigh nothing ~Kay
Does an atom has mass?
Yes, atoms are made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons. Protons are neutrons each weigh 1 Atomic Mass unit (amu). Electrons weigh about 1/1836 of an amu and don't really contribute to the weight of an atom at all. The more protons and neutrons an atom has the more it weighs.
Where can most of the mass in an atom be found?
Most of the mass in an atom can be found in the nucleus, which houses the protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are much more massive than electrons, which orbit the nucleus in the electron cloud.
Within an atom protons and neutrons are found in the?
Protons are found in nucleus, as neutrons are also.
How is the mass number determine?
the mass number is determined on the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of the atom.
What is the number of neutrons in atom equal to?
The number of neutrons in an atom is the number of protons subtracted from the mass number. For instance Carbon weighs 12.01 amus and has 4 Protons, therefore it has 8 neutrons because protons and neutrons make the mass of an atom since electrons weigh such a small amount.
How many neutrons do protons have?
Neutrons are completely separate from protons, so neutrons do not have any protons, and protons do not have any neutrons.
Which two particles have roughly the same mass?
Protons and neutrons have almost the same mass.
Which particles account for almost all the mass of an atom?
Protons and neutrons account for almost all the mass of an atom. Electrons have much less mass compared to protons and neutrons.
What paritcles are found in the nucleus of an atom?
Protons and neutrons are the particles found in the nucleus of an atom. Protons have a positive charge, neutrons have no charge, and both are much heavier than electrons.
