Which is the smallest particle a molecule an atom a proton a neutron or a quark?

A quark is the smallest known particle, which makes up protons and neutrons found in the nucleus of atoms. This means that quarks are smaller than protons, neutrons, atoms, and molecules.


What matter is made of tiny bits called?

All matter to our understanding is made of very small things called atoms. These are neutral in charge with a nucleus containing protons and neutrons and outside there is electrons. These particles can further be split into things such as quarks. There includes many types of these and are strange quark, up quark, down quark, charm quark, bottom quark, and top quark. These all have values associated with them such as spin and charge.

Which subatomic particles account for most of an atoms mass?

The up and down quark accounts for most of an atoms mass. Two up quarks and one down quark forms a proton, and one up quark and two down quarks forms a neutron. Protons and neutrons form the nuclei of atoms, and comprise most of their mass, along with the binding energy holding them all together.


What is the quark gluon phase?

A theoretical new state of matter. Quarks and gluons are components of atoms. When you heat certain atoms to around 4 trillion degrees Celsius, the atoms stop behaving as atoms and start behaving as something completely different.A quark-gluon plasma behaves as a near-ideal Fermi liquid.In normal matter, quarks are confined, in a Quark Gluon plasma, the quarks are not confined (read more on deconfinement).At such temperatures, you would think that the quark gluon plasma would behave as free roaming objects, as people normally experience a gas, but it behaves more like a liquid instead.More experiments are required to explore the nature of these subatomic particles.


Which one of the subatomic particles is the heaviest?

I think the "Top" quark is probably the heaviest, which has a mass about that of 170 hydrogen atoms.

What is an antibottom quark?

An antibottom quark (or b-bar quark) is the antiparticle of a bottom quark. It has the same mass as a bottom quark but opposite electric charge and other quantum numbers. When a bottom quark meets an antibottom quark, they can annihilate each other and produce energy.
