What else can I help you with?
What does it mean when a subatomic particle is in the atom?
Basically, atoms are made up of subatomic particles. Subatomic, sub- meaning smaller that, so subatomic particles means "a particle smaller than an atom". So It means that it is a particle within the atom.
Where are electrons found in an atom?
They are found in electron clouds around the nucleus.
Why are protons neutrons electrons called subatomic particles?
Because they are much smaller than an atom
How does the size of a beryllium atom compare with the size of an oxygen atom?
Oxygen is fairly smaller than Beryllium. The two have the same amount of orbital shells, but Oxygen has more protons, which pulls its electrons closer together, thus decreasing the overall size!
Are subatomic and little particles the same thing?
Atoms are composed of protons, electrons and neutrons (save hydrogen-1, which lacks any neutrons). Protons and neutrons are baryons, which are made up of three quarks. Having said that, the quark, which is a fundamental particle, is smaller than an atom by a great deal. Further, the quark is smaller than either a proton or neutron, as both are made of three quarks. The electron is a fundamental particle, and it is smaller still than a quark.When we look at the fundamental particles as they are described in the Standard Model, only the photon and gluon, which are force carriers, are smaller. It should be noted that the way we relate "smaller" in this case is by stating a mass-energy equivalence and describing the mass of the fundamental particles in terms of energy. Use the link below to see a chart of the sixteen particles that make up the three generations of matter.
When was our Universe smaller than an atom?
The Universe was never smaller than an atom.
What can a star get smaller than?
it can get smaller than an atom
Is an atom smaller than a compound?
An atom is smaller than a compound because if an electron fits in an atom, and an atom is a part of a compound, it means a compound is bigger than an atom
Which particle is smaller a proton molecule atom or nucleus?
A proton is smaller than a molecule, which is a group of atoms bonded together. The nucleus is smaller than both a molecule and an atom, as it is the central part of an atom where most of its mass is concentrated.
Does an atom of fluorine have larger or smaller radius than an atom of iodine?
Smaller
Is the atom that remains after the nucleus disintegrate larger of smaller than the original atom?
smaller
Is an atom smaller or larger than basketball?
Smaller
Which one smaller cell atom molecule?
An atom is smaller than a cell, and a molecule is smaller than both atoms and cells. Cells are composed of molecules, which in turn are made up of atoms.
What is smaller than a atom?
Neutrons, protons, and electrons make up an atom, so they are smaller.
Is a element smaller than an molecule?
The atom of an element is smaller than a molecule.
Is the proton smaller than an atom?
Of course it is smaller. It is a sub atomic particle
Is nucleus smaller than atom?
An atom comprises an atomic nucleus with orbiting electrons. So the nucleus is smaller than an atom. To phrase it the opposite way, an atom is alwys larger than the nucleus (of the same atom of course!!)
