What is the use of neutrons protons and electrons?
Neutron are what keeps the nucleus together. Protons are what decides the kind of element which the atom is and the electrons decide the charge of the atom.
What element has 2 electrons (neutral atom )?
Helium has 2 protons, 2 neutrons, and 2 electrons.
Is there more than one atom used in element?
No, an element is 1 atom with a certain number of protons, neutrons, and electrons.
Which chemical element has 177 neutrons 77 protons and 77 electrons?
Atoms are defined by the number of protons in the nucleus; therefore, we can tell what element it is by the number of protons (the information about the neutrons and electrons is unnecessary). An atom with 77 protons is iridium.
How may electrons neutrons protons are foundin the helium atom?
2 protons 2 electrons 2 neutrons 2 protons 2 electrons 2 neutrons don't know
Is boron protons electrons or neutrons?
Boron is an atom or element, and it contains protons, electrons, and neutrons.
What is a particle of an element?
An atom contain protons, neutrons and electrons; protons and neutrons contain quarks and gluons.
What is the difference between an atom a molecule and an element?
An atom is a nucleus of protons and neutrons with electrons orbiting around. An element is an atom with a specific amount of protons, neutrons, and electrons. A molecule is a bunch of atoms stuck together.
How many protons neutrons and electrons are in k39?
Potassium is a s block element. It has 19 protons in a atom.
What is a subatomic particle of an element?
An atom contain protons, neutrons and electrons; protons and neutrons contain quarks and gluons.
Which pair below describes isotopes of the same element Aan atom with 6 protons and 8 neutrons - an atom with 8 protons an 6 neutrons Ban atom with 6 protons and 6 neutrons - an atom with 6 p?
The pair below that describes isotopes of the same element is B, an atom with 6 protons and 6 neutrons-an atom with 6 protons. It is not A, an atom with 6 protons and 8 neutrons- an atom with 8 protons and 6 neutrons. Isotopes of the same element have the same number of protons and electrons, which is the atomic number of the element.
How many protons and neutrons are used in an atom?
"Used" is the wrong term to be used in this case. An atom is MADE up of protons,neutrons and electrons. Also, the number of protons or neutrons present in an atom depends on which atom is it or of which element it is.
What does the atomic number tell you besides the number of protons in one atom of an element?
There are three main parts to an Atom. The atom comprises of protons, neutrons, and electrons. The location of each are Protons and Neutrons at the core, and Electrons in the shell **oribits around the core.** Protons and Neutrons are equal in amount unless the atom/element is an isotope.
What is the use of neutrons protons and electrons?
Neutron are what keeps the nucleus together. Protons are what decides the kind of element which the atom is and the electrons decide the charge of the atom.
A lithium atom contains 3 protons 4 neutrons and 3 electrons. What would be formed if one proton is added to this atom?
As you already know the atom consists of protons, neutron and eletrons. The number of protons determins which chemical element it is, and on the periodic table of elements, we can see that the next element after lithium is beryllium.-An atom with 3 protons, 3 neutrons, and 3 electrons.- An atom with 3 protons, 5 neutrons, and 3 electrons
What element has 2 electrons (neutral atom )?
Helium has 2 protons, 2 neutrons, and 2 electrons.
Is there more than one atom used in element?
No, an element is 1 atom with a certain number of protons, neutrons, and electrons.
