Atoms are made of 3 types of subatomic particles, the protons and neutrons (which are in the center, or nucleus) and the electrons (which surround the nucleus). It should be noted that protons and neutrons are made of even more fundamental particles, called quarks.

∙ 11y agoThat is a good question. Scientists are still not completely sure what the atom is made of, however we do know about three parts right now. They are the proton (positive charge), neutron (neutral charge), and electron (negative charge). The proton attracts the electrons, causing them to orbit. There can be more neutrons than protons but not less. (The hydrogen 1 isotope, which has one proton and no neutrons, is an exception to that rule.) The neutrons keep the positively charged protons from repelling each other. (Or more precisely, the neutrons provide an attractive force that overcomes the repulsion of protons for other protons.)
