What are the particles of atoms?

The general particles of an atom are Protons, Neutrons and Electrons. The Protons and Neutrons are in the Nucleus of the atom and the Electrons are orbiting the Nucleus.


Where are the neutrons found in an nucleus?

in the center of the nucleus along with protons, where by electrons are orbiting the nucleus from the outside.


An atom contains what?

An atom contains protons and neutrons in the nucleus (though Hydrogen does not have neutrons) and electrons orbiting the nucleus.


Where protons neutrons and electons are found in an atom?

Protons and neutrons occupy the center of the atom and make up the nucleus. The electrons are found orbiting the nucleus


Where are protons and neutrins located?

Protons and Neutrons compose the nucleus of the atom. They are surrounded by a cloud of electrons. If our universe was an atom, the sun would be the nucleus (with protons and neutrons) and the orbiting planets would be the electrons.


What type of gas has 8 protons and 8 neutrons?

It is Oxygen. Oxygen contains 8 Protons and 8 Neutrons in the Nucleus. It also has 8 Electrons orbiting on two rings around the nucleus. The closest ring (to the nucleus) has two Electrons orbiting, and the furthest ring has six Electrons orbiting. This should answer the Question.

Neutral atom with 53 protons in its nucleus would have how many electrons orbiting the nucleus?

For a standard atom, the number of protons, electrons, and neutrons is the same. For example: 2 Protons - 2 Neutrons - 2 Electrons Helium 3 Protons - 3 Neutrons - 3 Electrons Lithium 4 Protons - 4 Neutrons - 4 Electrons Beryllium So... 53 Protons - 53 Neutrons - 53 Electrons Iodine


Where are the protons neutrons and electron located in the atom?

Protons and neutrons are located within the nucleus. Electrons are revolving around the nucleus.


Where are protons neutrons and electrons located?

Protons, neutrons and electrons are located in the atom. The protons and neutrons are located in the atomic nucleus; the electrons are around the nucleus, arranged in shells.


Where is the subatomic particles located?

Protons and neutrons are in the center of an atom in the nucleus. Electrons are dispersed around the nucleus.
