Where do the protons and the neutrons exist in the atom?
The nucleus consists of protons and neutrons.
Are the electrons of an atom found in the nucleus along with the protons?
Electrons are never found in the nucleus of an atom, along with the protons. They exist in shells that surround the nucleus.
Where does all of the mass of an atom exist?
The majority of an atom's mass comes from its nucleus, where the protons and neutrons are joined. The electrons of an atom are so distant and so minuscule in size, that their weight is negligible. When calculating the mass of an atom is therefore protons+neutrons.
What is an atom's houses its protons and neutron?
Protons and neutrons exist in the nucleus of an atom. The electrons in an atom exist outside the nucleus. All elements have at least one proton; in fact the number of protons, which are positively charged, determines which element it is. Normally, all the elements except hydrogen (H) also contain neutrons, which have no charge (they're neutral, hence their name.)
How many protons electrons and neutrons are in a carbon-40 atom?
The isotope carbon-40 doesn't exist !
Can an atom with 50 protons and 2electrons exist?
No it can't. There has to an equal amount of electrons as protons! This atom can't exist.
Is an atom a oxygen atom or carbon atom?
That would depend on how many protons exist in the nucleus of the atom. An atom with 6 protons is a carbon atom; 7 protons is nitrogen, and 8 = oxygen.
Where do the protons and the neutrons exist in the atom?
The nucleus consists of protons and neutrons.
What is the center of an atom where the neutrons and protons exist?
Nucleus
Does an atom with negative charge nucleus exist?
No, only protons and neutrons exist in the nucleus of an atom. Electrons are what produce a negative charge.
Are the electrons of an atom found in the nucleus along with the protons?
Electrons are never found in the nucleus of an atom, along with the protons. They exist in shells that surround the nucleus.
What is the elemental symbol for an atom with 13 protons 17 neutrons and 12 electons?
It does not exist If it did exist it would be 30Al+
The center of an atom where the neutrons and protons exist?
That is called the nucleus. It is positively charged and it makes up most of the atom's mass.
Where does all of the mass of an atom exist?
The majority of an atom's mass comes from its nucleus, where the protons and neutrons are joined. The electrons of an atom are so distant and so minuscule in size, that their weight is negligible. When calculating the mass of an atom is therefore protons+neutrons.
Is protons the only thing that orbits around the nucleus of an atom?
actually protons exist inside the nucleus not outside. Electrons are the ones that exist outside and they don't orbit they are more like clouds around the nucleus,and nothing orbits the atom's nucleus.
Can you think why atoms always have the same amount of electron as protons?
When the number of protons is different another atom exist; the number of protons is specific for only one element.
What is an atom's houses its protons and neutron?
