How many subatomic particles in sodium?

Answer 1

It really depends in which atom you're talking about. because a hydrogen atom which it's atomic number is 1 has 1 electron, 1 neutron, and 1 proton; the helium atom, has an atomic number of 2, the nitrogen atom of 7, and Unumquadium of 114, meaning that Unumquadium has 342 subatomic particles( a radioactive element , and also a syntetic one, meaning that it is not found in nature, and its manmade)

Answer 2

79Au196.97

This is from any Periodic Table.

So gold has 79 protons

And by symmetry a gold atom has 79 electrons

And by simple calculation or looking on Google: 118 neutrons

Answer 3

The atom contain: protons, neutrons, electrons; protons and neutrons contain quarks and gluons.

But in the particle physics a large number of strange and rare particles are known and many other were proposed but not experimentally confirmed.

Answer 4

There are three different types of subatomic particles in an atom.

• Protons
• Neutrons
• Electrons

The number of them in any particular atom depends on the atom and what isotope it is. For example, Carbon-14 has 6 protons 6 electrons and 8 neutrons. (Note Protons and Electrons always exist in equal numbers other than in Ions)

Answer 5

That depends on the atom - and what subatomic particles you want to include. For example, if you don't go down to the level of quarks, and only consider protons, neutrons, and electrons:* The simplest hydrogen atom has ONE proton, and ONE electron.

* A uranium-238 atom has 92 protons, 146 neutrons, and 92 electrons.

Please note that each proton, and each neutron, is in turn made up of three quarks. As far as we know, these are truly "elementary", meaning they are not made up of smaller particles.

Answer 6

Potassium has 19 electrons and protons; the number of neutrons is specific for each isotope.

Number of neutrons in a potassium isotope = Mass number - 19

Answer 7

A typical carbon atom has 6 protons, 6 neutrons, and 6 electrons. A very small percentage of carbon atoms may have a different number of neutrons, and those atoms would be isotopes of carbon.

Answer 8

There are three types of subatomic particles.

Positively charged protons

Neutral neutrons

Negatively charged electrons

Answer 9

Sodium-23 isotope (the most stable isotope of sodium) has 11 protons, 11 electrons and 12 neutrons

Answer 10

These particle are: neutron, proton, electron.
