How is the existence of the neutrino confirmed?
Actually, we can't even confirm the existence of atoms, let alone subatomic particles. But when scientists conduct experiments, they come to the conclusion that the particles are indeed valid. The more discrete physics becomes, the more theoretical it is.
Among the elementary subatomic particles of physics is the muon?
Yes, the muon is a subatomic elementary particle. The subatomic label is not really needed; all elementary particles are subatomic.
Are subatomic particles partial particles?
no, a molecule is composed of 2 or more atoms.
What subatomic particles are found in orbit?
an electron is found in shells , it is a subatomic particle
What is the difference between subatomic particles and elementary particles?
Subatomic particles are proton, neutron, electron; these particle are some examples of the large group of elementary particles.

Which two scientists discovered the subatomic particles that make up the nucleus?
Chadwick and Rutherford
What are the properties of particles?
The atom is the smallest part of matter that represents a particular element. For quite a while, the atom was thought to be the smallest part of matter that could exist. But in the latter part of the 19th century and early part of the 20th, scientists discovered that atoms are composed of certain subatomic particles and that, no matter what the element, the same subatomic particles make up the atom. The number of the various subatomic particles is the only thing that varies. Scientists now recognize that there are many subatomic particles (this really makes physicists salivate). But in order to be successful in chemistry, you really only need to be concerned with the three major subatomic particles: Protons Neutrons Electrons
What are the Subatomic particles with no charges?
Subatomic particles with no charges are neutrons
Why are scientists concerned about subatomic particles?
For the particles in the atom: Neutron: James Chadwick, 1932 Electron: J. J. Thomson, 1897 Proton: Ernest Rutherford, 1919
What subatomic particle did the gold foil experiment discover?
Rutherford's gold foil experiment did not discover the existence of any subatomic particles, but it did show the existence of a small, tightly packed, positively charged nucleus and thus led to the discovery of protons.
What are the subatomic particles with no mass called?
All subatomic particles have mass.
What are properties that vary among subatomic particles?

What is in between subatomic particles?
Subatomic particles are: neutron, proton, electron.
Are photos made of subatomic particles?
Everything is made of subatomic particles.
What is A particle not made up of other particles?
subatomic particleIn physics or chemistry, subatomic particles are the small particles composing nucleons and atoms. There are two types of subatomic particles: elementary particles, which are not made of other particles, and composite particles.
