The mass of a nucleus varies according to the atomic number (ie according to what element it is).

For hydrogen , the simplest nucleus, the combined mass of the one proton and the one neutron would be equal in mass to 3672 electrons.

Is most of the mass contained in the nucleus of the atom?

Yes. because electrons revolve around the nucleus and have practically negligible mass when compared to the nucleus.


What does the cloud around the atom's nucleus contain?

Electrons, small negatively charged particles with very little mass compared to that of the nucleus.


Most of the mass of an atomic concentrated in the what?

Most of the mass of an atom is concentrated in its nucleus, which is composed of protons and neutrons. Electrons, which have a very small mass compared to protons and neutrons, orbit around the nucleus.


An atom has no mass?

An atom does have mass. The mass of an atom is primarily concentrated in its nucleus, which is made up of protons and neutrons. Electrons, which orbit the nucleus, have much less mass compared to protons and neutrons.


How does the mass of the nucleus compared to the mass of the Atom?

The mass of the nucleus makes up most all of the mass of an atom. The only things outside the nucleus are the electrons. The mass of an electron is ~9.11E-31 kg. The mass of an electron is 1/1836 that of a proton.


Is the nucleus light or heavy?

The nucleus is pretty much light. But it contains the most mass of an atom.

Mass of atom is contrated on what?

The mass of an atom is concentrated within its nucleus, which contains protons and neutrons. The electrons, which have negligible mass compared to protons and neutrons, orbit around the nucleus in specific energy levels.


Where is the bulk mass in an atom?

The bulk mass of an atom is concentrated in the nucleus, which contains protons and neutrons. Electrons, which have negligible mass compared to protons and neutrons, orbit around the nucleus in electron shells.


The mass of an atom is contained primarily in its?

The mass of an atom is primarily contained in its nucleus, which is made up of protons and neutrons. Electrons, which have a much smaller mass compared to protons and neutrons, occupy the space surrounding the nucleus.


What is the atomic particle that has an extremely small mass compared to the others?

Of the 3 atomic particles protons, neutrons and electrons, electrons have the smallest mass.


Where is all the mass of an atom concentrated in?

The mass of an atom is concentrated in its nucleus, which is composed of protons and neutrons. The nucleus is extremely small compared to the overall size of the atom, but it contains almost all of the atom's mass. Electrons, which are much smaller in mass, orbit around the nucleus.
