What has to be true about the protons and the electrons on an atom that is neutrral?
In any atom,there are protons, neutrons and electrons. As the name would suggest, neutrons carry no charge. Protons carry a positive charge and electrons carry a negative charge. So in an atom that has no charge there has to be an equal number of protons and electrons.
What is the name given to the three particles that make up atoms?
Protons, Neutrons, and Electrons
What is the name of the isotope that has 7 neutrons and 6 electrons?
The natural isotope of carbon 13C (abundance 1,1 %) has 6 protons, 6 electrons and 7 neutrons.
What is the name of the positively charged particles in the center atom?
The three main particles in an atom are the protons, neutrons and electrons. Electrons orbit around the atoms where the others 'reside' in the center. Protons are positively charged where neutrons have no charge.
Is an electron just a name for both neutrons and protons?
No. Protons and neutrons make up the nucleus of the atom. Electrons orbit the nucleus. The best way to think about an atom is to look at it as a miniature version of our solar system. The nucleus would be the sun (protons and neutrons) and the electrons would be the planets, orbiting around it.

Name the 3 basic parts of an atom?
Protons neutrons and electrons
Neutral atoms of the same element can differ in their number of what?
Neutrons. If the differ in electrons they are not neutral and if they differ in protons then they are no longer the same element as the number of protons determines the name of the element.
Which of these describes the charges of an atom's electrons and protons?
Protons have a POSITIVE charge Neutrons don't have a charge, hence the name NEUTRON Electrons have a NEGATIVE charge Protons and Neutrons form the nucleus of the atom and Electrons spin around the nucleus
How many protons neutrons and electrons make up an atom of nitrogen's 15?
Nitrogen 15 contains: 7 protons 8 neutrons 7 electrons "15" is added to the name because it is an isotope and contains inequal amounts of protons and neutrons (in this case, an extra neutron).
How many protons neutrons and electrons make up and Atom of nitrogen -15?
Nitrogen 15 contains: 7 protons 8 neutrons 7 electrons "15" is added to the name because it is an isotope and contains inequal amounts of protons and neutrons (in this case, an extra neutron).
What is the name given to the three particles that make up atoms?
Protons, Neutrons, and Electrons
Name everything smaller than an atom?
Components of the atom are protons, neutrons and electrons.
name 3 sub-atomic particals that make an atom?
Protons, Neutrons and Electrons.(:
What is the collective name for protons, neutrons and electrons?
It's called sub-atomic particles
Is electron neutron and protron the same?
No. Protons, neutrons, and electrons are subatomic particles found in atoms. Protons and neutrons make up the nucleus of an atom, while electrons 'orbit' the nucleus. Protons and neutrons are very nearly the same mass (1.672 x 10^(-27) kg for protons, 1.674 x 10^(-27) kg for neutrons) while electrons are far smaller (9.109 x 10^(-31) kg). Protons have a charge of +1, electrons have a charge of -1, and neutrons are (as their name suggests) neutral.
What is the name of the isotope that has 7 neutrons and 6 electrons?
The natural isotope of carbon 13C (abundance 1,1 %) has 6 protons, 6 electrons and 7 neutrons.
