The space surrounding the nucleus.

∙ 16y agoThe nucleus probably is the part of an atom that takes up the least space. The electron is the smallest individual part of an atom, but the electrons are in motion, and they describe or delineate the outer boundaries of the atom. They basically define the volume of the atom. The nucleus, meanwhile, is just sitting in the middle with all its protons and neutrons huddled tightly together. And it's not taking up much space doing it.

∙ 14y agoAlmost all of the mass is centered in the atom's nucleus, where the protons and neutrons are.
The electron clouds hold the electrons whizzing around the nucleus, but they are mostly empty space. and electrons have almost no mass.

Why does not an atom of an element represent the actual mass of its atom?
The atomic mass of an element is measured not in the mass of the atom, but in the number of grams per mole.
What is the mass of an atom concentrated on?
virtually all the mass in concentrated in the nucleus of the atom, as the electron's mass is so small, it is negligible.
What is the mass number of a atom?
the mass number is number of protons in an atom, plus the number of neutrons.
What do you get if you subtract the atomic number from the mass number for a particular atom?
mass no - atomic no = number of neutrons in an atom.
What is counted in an atom to determine mass number?
NEUTRONS AND PROTONS are counted in an atom to determine it's mass number.
Which region of an atom has no mass?
Almost all of the volume of an atom has no mass.
Which in an atom has the least mass in an atom?
Which particle? The electron.
What region of an atom has all the weight?
No region has all the weight, but the vast majority of the mass of an atom is in the nucleus.
What is the region in an atom that contains most of the mass of an element?
the nucleus
What element in the universe has the smallest atom?
the atom with the least mass is the hydrogen atom
Most of the atom's positive charge and almost all of its mass is located in this region of the atom?
The nucleus.
The neutrons in an atom have the least amount of mass?
No actually, the neutrons and the protons of an atom are relatively the same in mass. Electrons have the smallest mass in an atom, and are not even considered when we look at the mas sof an atom.
What particle found in an atom has the least mass?
the electron
What stable particle found in an atom has the least mass?
the electron
Which has the least amount of mass a molecule an atom an electron a neutron a proton?
The mass of an electron is the least among the options given here.
What has the least mass in an atom?
The election within an atom would have the least mass. Protons and neutrons have a mass roughly that of 1amu, while an electron's is 1/1840 of an amu.
What part of the atom contains the least atomic mass?
Electron. Contains basicaly no mass what so ever.
