Actually, protons are in shells. They follow a similar behavior as do electrons, except that due to their much greater mass, they don;t move around as much as electrons do from their kinetic energy. That, and the fact that protons interact via the extremely short-ranged force called the strong nuclear force, while electrons don't, keep them clumped close together in the nucleus.
The protons and neutrons of cobalt just like any other element are located in the nucleus whereas the electrons are located in the energy shells.
Argon has 18 protons and 22 neutrons in the nucleus. It has 18 electrons surrounding the nucleus with 2, 8 and 8 electrons in the three shells.
Electrons are the only elementary particles that orbit around the nucleus of an atom in distinct energy levels or shells. Other particles such as protons and neutrons are located within the nucleus itself.
It can be any atom if you have to explain the basic structure of it. But there should be the main parts like the nucleus,shells,protons,neutrons,electrons,etc.
i think it depends how many electrons it has. then you do something like subtract the electrons from the protons. electrons are negative, protons are positive.
Iron has several isotopes but the most common is Fe56. which is 92 percent of natural Iron, so I will describe that. This has a nucleus with 26 protons and 30 neutrons. It therefore has 26 electrons and the electron shells contain 2, 8, 14, and 2 electrons (from inner to outer shells). So color your protons and neutrons differently and stick 26 and 30 of these together for the nucleus, then arrange the electrons as described in orbits around the nucleus.
An atom is composed of three subatomic particles: protons, neutrons, and electrons. Protons and neutrons are located in the nucleus at the center of the atom, while electrons orbit the nucleus in various energy levels or shells. Protons have a positive charge, neutrons have no charge, and electrons have a negative charge. The number of protons determines the element of the atom, while the number of electrons determines its charge.
There are 53 protons and 53 electrons in an iodine atom.
The electrons flow around the atoms nucleus...the protons and neutrons are on the inside of the neucleus.
it has 4 protons and 15 electrons!!!Ans 2.Oxygen has 8 protons.p.s. like all atoms, it has the same number of electrons as protons : 8.
An atomic model of chlorine has three electron shells surrounding its nucleus. The first shell has 2 electrons. It has the least amount of kinetic energy among the three shells. The second shell has 8 electrons and has less kinetic energy than the outer shell, but more kinetic energy than the inner shell. The third shell has 7 electrons. It has the highest kinetic energy level of the three shells.
6 electrons. Neutrons have no charge, and protons have a positive charge, at an equal but opposite charge of an electron (think of it like protons are +1, electrons are -1). You need the exact same number of electrons as protons in order to have a neutral atom.
