How do you figure out the subatomic particle numbers for each element?
Number of protons= Atomic number Number of neutrons= Mass number-Atomic number Number of electrons=Number of protons (If there is no charge on the atom)
How is it possible that an atom has no charge or is said to be neutral with an atom containing subatomic particles which possess charges?
there is an equal number of positive and negative charges which exactly cancel each other out.
What subatomic particle identifies boron?
Boron has 5 electrons and protons; the number of neutrons is specific for each isotope. Number of neutrons in a boron isotope = Mass number - 5
What subatomic particles comprise the nucleus?
The two Subatomic particles which are in the Nucleus of an Atom is the Up and Down quark. When we think about the Nucleus of an Atom it is made up with Neutrons and Protons. Both Neutrons and Protons are made up with Quarks (a type of Subatomic Particle) Neutrons have to Down quarks and one Up quark. Whilst Protons have two Up quarks and one Down quark. So we can see that the Nucleus of an Atom is not only made up but dependent on Up and Down quarks.This should answer the Question.
What describes protons?
Protons are positively charged particles found inside the nucleus of an atom. The number of protons in each atom is its atomic number. The name proton was given to the hydrogen nucleus by Ernest Rutherford in 1920.
Where is each subatomic particle located inside an atom?
it is located around an atom orbiting it
How can you figure out how many of each subatomic particle is in a atom has?
j
How can you find the number of each subatomic particle found in an atom of a particular element?
By looking at the atom.
The subatomic particle that is most responsible for how an atom reacts with other atoms is?
Assuming that you mean the chemical properties, the electrons are what define each element. If you meant subatomic particles, then it doesn't matter; each subatomic particle has unique characteristics.
Where in the atom do you find each of the subatomic particles?
The only subatomic particle that has any role in chemistry is the electron.
What is the charge on each subatomic particle?
For the atom: Neutron: Charge: neutral Electron: Charge: negative Proton: Charge: positive
What is the class of matter that has more than one kind of particle?
The answer depends on what you mean by a "particle". Everything is made of atoms and each atom is made from a number of different subatomic particles. Therefore, everything is made up different subatomic particles.
What subatomic particle makes an element unique?
The number of protons is unique for every element.Varying the number of neutrons will give you an isotope of the same element.Varying the number of electrons will give you an ion of the same element.
What subatomic particle contributes alomst no weight to an atom?
The subatomic particles that contribute most almost no weight to an atom are electrons at various energy levels. Isotopes of the same element differ from each other only by the number of neutrons.
How many of each subatomic particle would be present in an atom of helium with a mass of 4 amu?
2 protons, 2 electrons and 2 neutrons
How many of each subatomic particle are in an atom of xenon with mass number 132?
Xenon 132 has 54 protons and 54 electrons and 78 neutrons.
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
