The corresponding atom is sodium 23.
Interestly, a neutron is a proton + an electron. So, when an atom captures an electron, one of its protons becomes a neutron. Now it has 1 more neutron, but 1 less proton; making the it an atom of the element with atomic number 1 less than the original atom. The total number of protons and neutrons remains the same. Xe- 129 + e-1 = I- 129
An atom contain protons, electrons and neutrons.
The parts of Atom are Proton, Neutron, and Electron.
The three main sub-atomic particles of an atom are proton, neutron and electron. The mass of a proton is about 1800 times the mass of an electron and the masses of proton and neutron are almost similar. Hence, mass of only proton and neutron is counted towards the mass of an atom.
An atom contains protons, neutrons, and electrons. The electrons are tiny. They can be found in a fast-moving cloud, orbiting the nucleus. Each electron has a charge of -1. The nucleus contains the protons and neutrons, which are packed tightly together. The protons each have a charge of +1, and the neutrons have a charge of zero. The mass number of an element is the number of protons and the number of neutrons added together. Since the number of protons is equal to the atomic number of the element, the number of neutrons can be found by subtracting the atomic number from the mass number.
calcium
6 which is Carbon
they work because in every atom there is a neutron, electron and proton. the electron will tell you what the atomic number is and the neutrons and protons will tell you what element it is.

The number of protons gives the atomic number. The number of electrons are equal to the number protons unless the atom is ionized. The number of neutrons determines which isotope you have. Hope that helps
protons and nuetrons are in the nucleus.electrons are in the electron cloud surrounding the nucleus

Protons = Atomic Number Electrons = Atomic Number Neutrons = Atomic Mass - Atomic Number *A note on Atomic Mass* Atomic Mass is the sum of the number of protons and neutrons in an atom. Every time you remove or add a Proton/Electron or a Neutron, you change the mass by one. *A note on Protons and Electrons* The number of Protons and Electrons in an atom is always the same. Whenever you talk about adding/removing a proton or an electron, you are by default adding/removing one of the other as well.
Neutons, located in the nucleus. Protons, also located the the nucleus but Elecrons, there is further study.
There is no 'neutron atom'. If you mean 'neutral' atom, then the answer is yes.
Proton = positive charge Neutron = neutral charge Electron = negative charge Please note that the basic parts of an atom do not include only the protons, neutrons and electrons. The basic parts are the nucleus and electron cloud. the protons and neutrons are essentially in the nucleus and the electrons are in the cloud surrounding the nucleus
