What particles are atoms constructed and where are they located in the atom?

Protons, neutrons and electrons, make up an atom. In an atom the protons and neutrons are attached to the nucleus (in the middle of the atom) and do not transfer to other atoms. The electrons however can be given off and taken in to and from other atoms. The electrons are in what is called 'shells'. They are constantly moving, therefore you cannot determine where they really are in an atom, other than that they are in shells.

∙ 12y agoAtoms are 'constucted' out of three diferent subatomair particles:
- protons (positively charged particles in the nucleus)
and
- neutrons (neutral particles in the nucleus)
and
- electrons (negatively charged particles, orbiting around the -positive- nucleus)
The charge of one proton and one electron is equal but oppositely signed:
+1 and -1 respectively,
since the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons in a neutral atom.

electrons- circling the nucleus- they have a negative charge
neutrons- in the nucleus- they have a neutral charge

The atom is composed of three --------- particles?
.the atoms is composed of three -------- particles .the atom has a --------------- and an electron could
Where are the protons located in atoms?
At the quantum level of sub-atomic particles, concepts like "location" get blurred. The electrons in an atom are MOST LIKELY to to be within about one angstrom (10^-8 centimeter) from the atom's nucleus, which is about one fermi (10^-13 centimeter) in diameter.
Is an atom indestructable?
No. Atoms can be broken down into subatomic particles.
What is smaller protons or atoms?
Protons are smaller than atoms. Protons are subatomic particles that are found within the nucleus of an atom along with neutrons. Atoms are made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons.

Chromosome is to nucleus as DNA is to?
Atom, in that DNA is constructed of nucleotides and nucleotides are constructed of atoms.
What the simplest particles of iron?
it is an atom. atoms help form the particles.
How many protons and neutrons does an atom have and where are each of these subatomic particles located?
Atoms can have anywhere from 1 to somewhere around 260-290 subatomic particles. The protons and neutrons are located in a clump in the center of the atom, surrounded by rapidly revolving electrons
Describe the subatomic particles in an atom?
Subatomic particles are particles that are smaller than the actual particle. which means that the actual atoms had a sub-atom,which is apart of the actual atom
Which particles in an atom are in the molecules?
All of them. Molecules are made of atoms, not pieces of atoms.
What two subatomic particles are located at the nucleus of an atom?
Protons which possess a positive charge and neutrons which possess no electric charge are subatomic particles within the nuclei of atoms.
Where are the protons located in atoms?
At the quantum level of sub-atomic particles, concepts like "location" get blurred. The electrons in an atom are MOST LIKELY to to be within about one angstrom (10^-8 centimeter) from the atom's nucleus, which is about one fermi (10^-13 centimeter) in diameter.
Is an atom indestructable?
No. Atoms can be broken down into subatomic particles.
Does atoms have cells?
An atom is not composed of cells, it is composed of particles.
What are the three particlesin an atom?
The three subatomic particles found in atoms are protons and neutrons, located in the atomic nucleus, and electrons which are located in the electron cloud surrounding the nucleus.
What are the three atoms subatomic particles?
protons, neutrons, and electrons are the subatomic particles involved with an atom
