Which of these describes the charges of an atom's electrons and protons?
Protons have a POSITIVE charge Neutrons don't have a charge, hence the name NEUTRON Electrons have a NEGATIVE charge Protons and Neutrons form the nucleus of the atom and Electrons spin around the nucleus
Name everything smaller than an atom?
Components of the atom are protons, neutrons and electrons.
How many protons neutrons and electrons would an atom of neon have?
- The atomic symbol is only an abridged form of the name of a chemical element. - The chemical symbol of neon is Ne; the atomic number is 10. - The atomic number is equal to the number of protons and electrons. - Number of neutrons = Atomic mass of an isotope - Atomic number
How many particles are in the nucleus for oxygen?
other gases
Do Protons have the same magnitude of charge as electrons but are opposite in sign?
No. Protons are positive and neutrons are neutral. Protons have exactly the opposite charge as that of electrons, even though they differ greatly in mass. Proton is 1826 times heavier than electron.
Is an nucleon a collective name for two particles?
Yes, protons and neutrons.
What has to be true about the protons and the electrons on an atom that is neutrral?
In any atom,there are protons, neutrons and electrons. As the name would suggest, neutrons carry no charge. Protons carry a positive charge and electrons carry a negative charge. So in an atom that has no charge there has to be an equal number of protons and electrons.
Name the 3 basic parts of an atom?
Protons neutrons and electrons
Neutral atoms of the same element can differ in their number of what?
Neutrons. If the differ in electrons they are not neutral and if they differ in protons then they are no longer the same element as the number of protons determines the name of the element.
Which of these describes the charges of an atom's electrons and protons?
Protons have a POSITIVE charge Neutrons don't have a charge, hence the name NEUTRON Electrons have a NEGATIVE charge Protons and Neutrons form the nucleus of the atom and Electrons spin around the nucleus
How many protons neutrons and electrons make up an atom of nitrogen's 15?
Nitrogen 15 contains: 7 protons 8 neutrons 7 electrons "15" is added to the name because it is an isotope and contains inequal amounts of protons and neutrons (in this case, an extra neutron).
How many protons neutrons and electrons make up and Atom of nitrogen -15?
Nitrogen 15 contains: 7 protons 8 neutrons 7 electrons "15" is added to the name because it is an isotope and contains inequal amounts of protons and neutrons (in this case, an extra neutron).
Is electron neutron and protron the same?
No. Protons, neutrons, and electrons are subatomic particles found in atoms. Protons and neutrons make up the nucleus of an atom, while electrons 'orbit' the nucleus. Protons and neutrons are very nearly the same mass (1.672 x 10^(-27) kg for protons, 1.674 x 10^(-27) kg for neutrons) while electrons are far smaller (9.109 x 10^(-31) kg). Protons have a charge of +1, electrons have a charge of -1, and neutrons are (as their name suggests) neutral.
Name everything smaller than an atom?
Components of the atom are protons, neutrons and electrons.
name 3 sub-atomic particals that make an atom?
Protons, Neutrons and Electrons.(:
What is the scientific name for protons neutrons and electrons?
They are three different types of subatomic particles.
What is the name given to the three particles that make up atoms?
Protons, Neutrons, and Electrons
