What are the basic particles found in the nucleus of an atom?

In the nucleus of an atom protons and neutrons can be found. All atoms of all elements have protons and neutrons except one isotope of hydrogen.


Do particles pop in and out of existence?

Yes! Particles and atoms and ever larger assemblages of atoms. All this is a consequence of quantum mechanics.


What are the subatomic particles found in the nucleus of an atom?

The proton and the neutron. (Both, in turn, are made up of quarks.)


Are gold and helium both made of subatomic particles?

by definition, yes. All atoms are made of "sub"atomic particles.


How are protons electrons and neutrons related to atoms?

Atoms all have a similar structure - they have a nucleus surrounded by one or more electrons. Each nucleus is made of protons and neutrons. All atoms of a particular element all have the same number of protons and electrons, and usually have the same number of neutrons too (although sometimes these differ) in all their atoms. Different elements have different amounts of these fundamental particles in their atoms. The first few elements (in terms of numbers of protons starting with 1, 2 3 etc) have numbers of protons, neutrons and electrons as follows: Hydrogen: 1 proton and 0 neutrons in the nucleus and 1 electron in orbit around it. Helium: 2 protons and 2 neutrons in the nucleus and 2 electrons in orbit around it. Lithium: 3 protons and 4 neutrons in the nucleus and 3 electrons in orbit around it. Beryllium: 4 protons and 5 neutrons in the nucleus and 4 electrons in orbit around it. Boron: 5 protons and 5 neutrons in the nucleus and 5 electrons in orbit around it. Carbon: 6 protons and 6 neutrons in the nucleus and 6 electrons in orbit around it. Nitrogen: 7 protons and 7 neutrons in the nucleus and 7 electrons in orbit around it. Oxygen: 8 protons and 8 neutrons in the nucleus and 8 electrons in orbit around it. So, the only difference between any of the elements e.g. oxygen and nitrogen is the number of particles in the atoms of each gas. Just as the words 'GOD' and 'DOG' represent totally different things despite being made of the same letters, all the elements in the universe from hydrogen to iron, from gold to tin are all different, look different, behave differently and so on, simply because, in their atoms they have different numbers of the fundamental particles, protons, neutrons and electrons.

What positively-charged particle is found in the nucleus of all atoms?

Protons are found in the nucleus of all atoms and are positively charged.


Most atoms are composed of electrons protons and neutrons. Which particles are found in the nucleus of a gold atom?

Not just "most" atoms , but all atoms are composed of protons and neutrons, which are found in the nucleus, and electrons surrounding the nucleus in the electron cloud. And these atoms include gold.

What particles (eletron or proton) are on the outside of all atoms?

Protons are particles in the atomic nucleus; electrons move around the nucleus.


What are the three subatomic particles of a molecule?

A molecule contains atoms e.g. water (H2O) The atoms, ( hydrogen and oxygen, and all other atoms) contain protons, neutrons in the nucleus of the atoms and electrons in energy shells around the nucleus. Protons, neutrons and electrons are sub-atomic particles.


What particles are found in the nucleus and what charge the nucleus have?

Protons and Neutron it has a positive charge (the sum of all the protons)


Are neutrons particles that are found in the nucleus of an atom?

Yes, as well as protons Another answer: Neutrons are almost always found in the nucleus of an atom. They are required in all atoms more massive than hydrogen. They are found free as the result of a certain type of radioactivity, some atom smashers, and some necular explosions. They are not particles but composits consisting of three quarks and gluons. They act like particles, waves, and cloud


The particles found in a nucleus that are neutral in charge?

Is the Nucleus, The nucleus is the source to all. It is the center and it is neutral meaning in is not positive neither negative.


Which does a nucleus of an atom contain?

a nucleus theoretically contains protones and neutrons but practically 33 different types of particles have discovered from nuclei of atoms , the modern research proved that the fundamental particles in nucleus are quarks and all other particles in nucleus are combination of 2 or 3 quarks the combination of 5 quarks is also possible.


Is it true that John Dalton proposed that the nucleus was found in the center of an atom?

It is untrue. John Dalton proposed the theory that all matter is made up of individual particles called atoms, which cannot be divided.


What are the charges of all subatomic particles?

The protons, which are positively charged, and the neutrons, which have no charge (which are electrically neutral) make up the nuclei of atoms. The electrons, which are negatively charged, will be found far from the nucleus in the electron cloud.


Does gold have a nucleus?

Yes all atoms are made up of a nucleus (a solid bit of positive and neutral charge) and a number of electron which are little negatively charged particles which are localized somewhere around the nucleus.
