Best Answer

It has 31 electrons. The easiest way to find an electron is that the atomic number tells you how many protons and electrons on the Periodic Table. It will change if the element is an ion which will gain or lose an electron.

What particles are found orbiting the nucleus?

electrons


Where are the neutrons found in an nucleus?

in the center of the nucleus along with protons, where by electrons are orbiting the nucleus from the outside.


What particles might be found in shells around a nucleus?

The particles found in the area surrounding the nucleus are called electrons. Electrons are attracted to the protons in the nucleus, but are repelled from other electrons. This is why they can be found orbiting the nucleus.


What is a large space surrouding atomic nucleus in which orbiting electrons can be found?

This an electron cloud.


What do electrons move around?

Within the electric field of a nucleus, electrons are most likely to be found far outside the nucleus. However, it is NOT the case that electrons are orbiting a nucleus like planets around a star.


Where protons neutrons and electons are found in an atom?

Protons and neutrons occupy the center of the atom and make up the nucleus. The electrons are found orbiting the nucleus


What is the large space surrounding the atomic nucleus that is orbiting electrons that can be found?

This space is only absolute vacuum.


What particle of an atom is not electrically charge?

The neutron - found in the nucleus of the atom. Protons (in the nucleus) have a positive charge, electrons (orbiting the nucleus) have a negative charge.


Where are electrons in atoms?

Electrons are found orbiting the nucleus of an atom. The reason they orbit is because the nucleus is positively charged, consisting of protons (positive) and neutrons (neutral). Of course, different charges attract. So the electrons (negative) are attracted to the positively charged nucleus, but are moving so fast that their momentum exactly cancels out the attraction to the nucleus. If the electrons were orbiting any faster, they would fly out of the atom. If they were orbiting any slower, they would eventually become part of the nucleus.


What type of particles are atoms made up of?

Protons(+ 1 charge) and neutrons(0 charge) are found in the nucleus. Electrons(-1 charge) are found outside, orbiting the nucleus.


What 3 types of particles are atoms made up of?

Protons(+ 1 charge) and neutrons(0 charge) are found in the nucleus. Electrons(-1 charge) are found outside, orbiting the nucleus.


Where can you find neutrons in an atom?

Nuetrons are found in the center of an atom which is called the nucleus.
