Which subatomic particle can also be called a nucleon?
A nucleon s a particle that makes up the nucleus of an atom. Protons and neutrons are both nucleons.
Where is the neutron located in an atom?
The neutron in an atom is always found in the nucleus. It is a nucleon (a particle making up an atomic nucleus), and, with a proton (which is also a nucleon) or protons, makes up all the elements other than (most) hydrogen.In the nucleus along with the protons.
When does a nucleon have more mass?
A nucleon has more mass when it is not bound to the nucleus of an atom. When the nucleon is bound to other nucleons the binding energy that keeps them together comes from the mass of the nucleon. Therefore the mass of a single nucleon will be smaller in an atom than on it's own.
Where is the nucleon located in an atom?
In the nucleus of the atom. The protons and neutrons of an atom are together collectively known as nucleons.
What is an uncharged particle in the nuecleus of an atom called?
The uncharged nucleon is the neutron. We use the term nucleon to refer to the particles that make up an atomic nucleus. These you know to be protons and neutrons. You also know protons carry a positive charge, and the neutron has no charge. The neutron is that uncharged nucleon.
Is the protron a nucleon?
Yes, the proton is a nucleon. The term nucleon is used to speak of component particles of the nucleus of an atom. That means either a proton or a neutron. The term nucleon can be applied to either the proton or neutron when speaking of these particles as building blocks of atomic nuclei. Use the link to the related question below for more information.
Nucleon is electrically neutral it is called?
A nucleon is one of the particles that make up the nucleus of the atom. Protons and neutrons are nucleons, and the neutronis the electrically neutral nucleon.
Which numbers are added to give the nucleon number of an ion?
No need to add. Use the elemnts mass number, which is the number of protons plus the number of neutrons
What is the sum of the protons and neutrons in an atom equals to?
The nucleon number (or mass number).
What do you find when you subtract the proton number from the nucleon number?
In chemistry and physics, a nucleon is one of the two particles that make up the atomic nucleus. Protons are one of the nucleons, Neutrons are the other nucleon.Thus by subtracting the number of Protons in the nucleus (the Proton number) from the total number of nucleons (the nucleon number) you will get the total number of Neutrons (the neutron number) in the atoms nucleus.
What is the electronic structure of an atom with a proton number 5 and a nucleon number 11?
In a neutral atom, the number of electrons is the same as the number of protons. The electronic structure of an atom with five electrons would be 2, 3. The electron configuration would be 1s22s22p1.
Can a nucleon be either a neutron or a proton?
A nucleon means either a proton or a neutron, yes. However it is conceivable that the word will be extended to mean anything forming the nucleus of an atom. For example researchers in CERN have managed to produce anti-hydrogen. The nucleus of such an atom would be an anti-proton. It might be reasonable to call that one a nucleon as well.
