Why are the electron located in a different part of the atom than the proton?

In our Universe, in which the rules of quantum mechanics rule for sub-atomic particles, the probability of an electron being inside a nucleus is vanishingly small. Its most likely position is on the order of one angstrom away from the nucleus.
Summing up, an electron is away from the proton because the laws that govern our Universe won't allow it to be close.

How is a hydrogen atom is different than a proton?
A hydrogen atom, H, is a proton (as nucleus) with one electron orbitting around it. A proton is just (the same as above) one proton, which lacks the electron: H+ .
Negatively charge subatomic particle?
The electron, the negatively charged particle in an atom, is located in the electron cloud, as opposed to the proton and neutron, located in the nucleus.
Where are proton neutron and electron located in an atom?
protons and nuetrons are in the nucleus.electrons are in the electron cloud surrounding the nucleus
What part of the atom cannot have its location accurately determined and is modeled by a cloud around the center of the atom?
There are three atomic particles, the neutron, the proton and the electron. The proton and neutron are located in the nucleus, leaving the electron to orbit the nucleus in a probability cloud.
How many particles do the atom have?
5, electron, proton, neutron, nucleus, and electron cloud.
How is a hydrogen atom is different than a proton?
A hydrogen atom, H, is a proton (as nucleus) with one electron orbitting around it. A proton is just (the same as above) one proton, which lacks the electron: H+ .
Where are electrons located in a atoms?
Electrons are located in the electron cloud - no joke. Atoms are composed of the electron could and the nucleus.
Where are proton neutron and electron located inside an atom?
Protons and neutrons are present in the nucleus. Electrons are present in orbits of an atom. Where as proton are located at centre of the nucleus.
Negatively charge subatomic particle?
The electron, the negatively charged particle in an atom, is located in the electron cloud, as opposed to the proton and neutron, located in the nucleus.
What are the three subatomic particles located in every atom?
proton,neutron,electron
Where are proton neutron and electron located in an atom?
protons and nuetrons are in the nucleus.electrons are in the electron cloud surrounding the nucleus
How do you charge an atom?
remove either a proton or electron OR add a proton or electron...
What subatomic particle has an electric charge?
electron-negative, proton-positive, neutron-neutral
What are three subatomic paarticles in an atom?
Neutron, proton, electron.Neutron, proton, electron.Neutron, proton, electron.Neutron, proton, electron.
The particle of an atom that carries a positive charge is called what?
There are three main particles in an atom. The electron, which is negatively charged, the proton, which is positively charged, and the neutron, which carries no charge.
What happen when you take way an electron and a proton?
I think you won't have a atom because the electron, proton and neutron is the basic part of the atom.
Whats a electron?
An electron is a negatively charged particle located in the electron cloud surrounding the nucleus of an atom. It is about 1/2000 the mass of a proton or neutron.
