I might be able to answer better if I knew why you think this should (or even COULD) happen.

In the Standard Model, both protons and neutrons are composed of three quarks (up, up, down for protons and up, down, down for neutrons). These arrangements are much more stable than any hypothetical six quark structure that would be produced by combining them.

Do Protons Neutrons or electrons have the most energy?

Electrons have the least amount of energy compared to protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons have similar amounts of energy in an atom, as they are found in the nucleus and contribute to the majority of the atom's mass.


How many numbers of protons does soduim have?

The sodium atom has 11 protons 11 electrons and 12 neutrons.


What is the mass number of a fluorine atom with 8 neutrons?

The atomic number is nine, because there are 9 protons. The mass number is 19, because an element does not have a charge, unless it forms to an ion. Therefore, if protons and neutrons have an amu of 1, the equation is as follows: Mass number (19)- Atomic number (9)= 10. There are 10 Neutrons and 9 protons.


Is the nucleus positve or negative?

The nucleus of an atom has a positive charge. This is due to the charge of the protons, which also have a positive charge.


What does nucleus of atom contains?

The Nucleus of the Hydrogen Atom contains a single proton. All other atoms contain protons and neutrons.The only thing I want to know though is what an atom contains in the nucleus not just a hydrogen atom. Or Is it the same as a Hydrogen one?Im asking this question in the answer box because I dont know how to ask a question.There are two different items that the nucleus of an atom can contain, protons and neutrons.The nucleus of a hydrogen atom contains one proton.The nucleus of a helium atom contains 2 protons and 2 neutrons. The nucleus of many lithium atoms contain 3 protons and 3 neutrons. The name of the atom is determined by the number of protons. You can go to Uranium which has 92 protons and 146 neutrons in the nucleus of the most common variety.The nucleus of an atom contains the neutrons and protons. The nucleus is usually positively charged.


Which two particles make up the mass of an atom?

. . . the two with (appreciable) mass: protons and neutrons.The atomic mass number of an element is determined by mass of the nucleus of an atom. Therefore the particles that make up the nucleus determine the mass number. These particles are protons and neutrons.The mass of the protons and neutrons do not vary between elements, but the number of each in the nucleus varies between elements and between isotopes of the same element.Protons and neutrons.idk dont asqq meehThe sum of the numbers of protons and neutrons determine the mass number. Electrons have negligible mass compared to protons and neutrons.The particles counted are neutrons and protons each having a relative atomic mass of 1. The atomic number is the number of protons.Atomic mass of an atom is the mass of the nucleus.Hence the atomic mass is the sum of the number of protons an neutrons present in the nucleus of the atom. The electrons are not considered as their mass is negligible compared to the mass of the neutrons and protons.


How many protons electrons and neutrons are there in an atom that has an atomic number of 8 and a mass of 15?

Learn that the atomic number means the number of protons. The mass number is the number of protons and the number of neutrons. So if we take the number of protons from the mass number then we get the number of neutrons that are present (mass umber - atomic number = number of neutrons). in this case 15 - 8 = 7. Since you dont mention there is any charge on the atom ill assume that its charge is neutral. For an atoms charge to be neutral then the positive charges from protons must equal the negative charges from electrons and vica versa. So for this to be the case with 8 protons then we must have 8 electrons.


A neutral sodium atom has 11 protons and 12 neutrons in its nucleus How many electrons does a plus 1 sodium ion have?

If you dont know this answer , well i dont either :0


What element has 57 protons and 73 neutrons?

I dont think there is one.


An atom with an atomic number of 9 and a mass number of 19 would have an atomic mass of what?

To find the atomic mass, subtract the atomic number (protons) from the mass number (protons + neutrons). Atomic mass = Mass number - Atomic number Atomic mass = 19 - 9 Atomic mass = 10amu So, an atom with an atomic number of 9 and a mass number of 19 would have an atomic mass of 10 atomic mass units (amu).


What is 1 proton 2 neutrons?

<P>proton + neutrons give you a nucleon. the nuceon(or protons +neutron) give you the overall mass of the atom. the mass of electrons is not included, i dont even think that it has mass at all. Hope you're answered?</P>


The number of neutrons in an atom is determined by what?

it's atomic mass- e.g weight in protons and neutrons, electrons weigh virtually nothing The number of nucleons (protons and neutrons) provides the number of the isotope. For example, 3H, called hydrogen-3 or tritium, has very nearly the same mass, and exactly the same isotope number, as 3He, or helium-3.
