well an atom itself cannot be subatomic, if subatomic means 'smaller than an atom'. an atom is neutral, since it will always contain the same number of protons and electrons, which are positively and negatively charged. The number of neutrons will not affect the electrical charge of an atom since it is neutrally charged.

Subtomic particles found in nucleus of an atom?

Protons and neutrons are in the nucleus.


Where is each subtomic particle located in the atom?

neutrons, protons and a probability distrubution of electrons. It go's much farther than this but these are regarded as the basics.


In an atom is the charges of the electrons being cancelled by the charges of the protons?

Yes, in an atom, the negative charges of the electrons are balanced by the positive charges of the protons in the nucleus. This overall balance of positive and negative charges is what keeps the atom stable.


3 positive charges and 4 negative charges what is the overall charge of an atom?

If an atom has 3 positive charges (protons) and 4 negative charges (electrons), the 3 positive charges would "cancel out" 3 negative charges, with one negative charge left over. So the atom would have a charge of -1.


What subtomic particle account for most all of an atoms mass?

Protons and neutrons, which are found in an atom's nucleus, account for most of an atom's mass. Electrons, which orbit the nucleus, have much less mass compared to protons and neutrons.

Are charges balanced in an atom?

Yes, charges are balanced in an atom. An atom is electrically neutral, meaning it has an equal number of protons (positively charged) and electrons (negatively charged). This balance between positive and negative charges allows atoms to remain stable.
