What is sulfur the name of?
An element with 16 protons in the nucleus of each atom.
What describes an atomic number of an element?
The number of protons in the nucleus of each atom of the element.
The atomic number of an element is always the same as?
The number of protons in the nucleus of each atom of the element.
What defines the atomic number of each element?
Its defined by the number of electrons in the nucleus. I thought protons where in the nucleus and electron are on the outer spere of the atom.
How can products of radioactive decay be a different element?
All the atoms of an element have the same number of protons in the nucleus of each atom. When the nucleus of a radioactive element such as Uranium splits into pieces, the "new" atoms formed have smaller numbers of protons in each atom.
What determines the element that an atom belongs to?
Its atomic number. In other words the number of positive protons in the nucleus of each atom and the number of negative electrons surrounding the nucleus of each atom.
What is in the middle of each atom?
Protons and neutrons. They are located in the nucleus (the middle of the atom).
Where is each subatomic particle located in a atom?
electron - electron cloud protons and neutron- nucleus
What is the atomic number always equal to?
The number of protons in the nucleus of each atom that has the atomic number.
The Atomic number of an atom is?
No. Atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom. Each element has a unique atomic number that identifies it as that element.
What is sulfur the name of?
An element with 16 protons in the nucleus of each atom.
What does electrostatic force do inside the nucleus?
It causes the protons in the nucleus repel each other.
In an atom what particle does the proton repel?
In the nucleus of an atom, the protons repel each other due to their like charges. However, the strong force keeps protons from flying apart, keeping the protons inside the nucleus.
How are elements identified in terms of their of their atoms?
Each atom of one specific element has the same number of protons. For example, Helium has 1 proton in every atom's nucleus. To find how many protons are in an elements atoms nucleus, look at the elements atomic number on the Periodic Table.
How many protons are in hyrogen?
Each H atom has one proton in its nucleus.
What describes protons?
Protons are positively charged particles found inside the nucleus of an atom. The number of protons in each atom is its atomic number. The name proton was given to the hydrogen nucleus by Ernest Rutherford in 1920.
How many protons would be present in an atom of barium?
There are four protons. Also four neutrons and four electrons
