- A nucleus having the main atom weight and composed of protons (of positive electric charge) and neutrons (of neutral electric charge), and
- electrons (of negative electric charge) orbiting around the nucleus at relatively very large distance.
Jordyn Pfeffer
Lupe Hahn
All atoms consist of two regions. The nucleus is a very small region located near the center of an atom. In every atom the nucleus contains at least one positively charged particle called a proton and usually one or more neutral particles called neutrons. Surrounding the nucleus is a region occupied by negatively charged particles called electrons. This region is very large compared with the size of the nucleus. Protons, neutrons, and electrons are often referred to as subatomic particles.

What is the Lewis structure of an atom?
There is none because there are no bonds in an atom.
Why were Niels Bohr's ideas important to the understanding of the structure of the atom?
What was proven wrong about the structure of Niels Bohr atom
How does atomic structure affect interactions between atoms?
The atomic structure dictates how easily the atom can bond with another atom. It also dictates the charge that an atom has.
How does an atom simplify your understanding of atomic structure?
an atom is the smallest part of any substance a substance has to be an atomic structure because every substance has at least one atom.
What was the atomic theory about?

What happens to the structure of an atom to change the atom into an ion?
The loss or gain of electrons transform an atom in an ion.
What is the crystal structure of aluminum?
as far as i know aluminum is a molecule not an atom. The aluminum atom has a valence of 3, what its chemical structure is depends on what it combines with.
What is a atom that forms a stable ion but not have an octet structure?
Helium; it has a duplet structure.
