Protons and Neutrons
The three main parts of an atom are the protons, neutrons, and electrons. Protons are positively charged particles found in the nucleus, neutrons are neutral particles also found in the nucleus, and electrons are negatively charged particles that orbit the nucleus.
The atom is made up of the nucleus (neutrons and protons) and electrons.
the denser part of an atom is the nucleus. about 99% of the mass of an atom is concentrated within the atom.
Yes. Any atom that loses or gains electrons become charged. Positively charged If the chlorine atom attracts an electron from a lithium atom, they both become charged ions. The chlorine atom becomes a -1 charged chlorine ion and the lithium atom becomes a +1 charged lithium ion. Further the two ions combine to make the compound Lithium Chloride.
Protons and neutrons are in the nucleus, and electrons are in the cloud that surrounds it.
Electrons do not make up the nucleus of an atom. They orbit the nucleus at various energy levels.
The nucleus of an atom only makes up a tiny fraction of the total volume of the atom, typically less than 1%. The majority of an atom’s volume is composed of the electron cloud surrounding the nucleus.
Atoms are made of a nucleus that is surrounded by electron clouds. The nucleus is formed from all the atom's protons and neutrons. Proton and neutrons are made up of even smaller particles called quarks.
No, the electrons are around the nucleus, not in the nucleus.
The particles in the nucleus of an atom are the protonsand the neutrons. We call particles that make up the atomic nucleus nucleons, and this word is just a way to say "the particles that make up an atom's nucleus" in an abbreviated manner.
An atom's mass is located entirely in the nucleus. In the nucleus, there are protons and neutrons. Electrons are located outside of the nucleus, but because the mass of an electron is so insignificantly small, it's not counted when determining the total mass.
The center of an atom is made up of protons and neutrons it's called the nucleus.
