Protons are made up of quarks: two up, one down. The quarks are are held together by gluons and the strong force (similar to gravity, in a way).The protons are then bound to the neutrons by the same strong force.
Protons and neutrons in an atom are held together by the strong force, which is one of the four fundamental forces in nature. This force helps bind these subatomic particles together in the nucleus of an atom despite their like charges.
Protons and neutrons are arranged in the nucleus of an atom in a tightly packed manner, with protons positively charged and neutrons neutral. They are held together by the strong nuclear force.
Nuclear particles are held together by the strong nuclear force, which is one of the four fundamental forces of nature. This force is responsible for binding protons and neutrons together in the atomic nucleus.
Being positively charged, particles protons should repel each other but they are held together in the nuclei of atoms.
Nucleus
It is the part of the atom with the greatest mass
no, they don't. instead they make up the nucleus of the atom. protons and neutrons are made of quarks, which are held together by gluons.which means that the nuceuls and electrons together make the atom.
Yes, a helium atom is held together by the strong nuclear force between its protons and neutrons in the nucleus. This force is what overcomes the electrostatic repulsion between positively charged protons to keep the nucleus stable.
The nucleus of an atom is composed of protons and neutrons, which are held together by the strong nuclear force. The protons carry a positive charge, while neutrons have no charge. Electrons orbit around the nucleus in specific energy levels.
The residual strong force. The strong force (or color force) is what holds quarks together to form protons and neutrons. The residual strong force then holds the protons and neutrons together in the nucleus.
Protons and electrons are held together in the atom through the electrostatic force of attraction. However, the electrostatic works between any particles, so it should affect protons and protons by making them repel each other and therefore blowing the nucleus of an atom apart. This does not happen because there is a second force at work; the strong nuclear force which (at separations larger than 0.5 femtometres to 3- 4 femtometres) is a attractive force which overcomes the electrostatic force of repulsion and therefore stop the atom being blown apart! hope this helps :)
Atoms are held up together by sharing electrons (covalent bonding) or by transfer of electrons (ionic bond).
