Quarks are one type of matter particle. Most of the matter we see around us is made from protons and neutrons, which are composed of quarks.
The major contribution to the mass of an atom is from protons and neutrons; electrons have a known but negligible mass.
A proton has a positive charge, a neutron has NO charge and an electron has a negative charge. All three are spin 1/2 particles and therefore fermions, however, protons and neutrons are each comprised of three elementary particles called quarks, making them baryons, whereas electrons aren't made out of any quarks, making them leptons. The lack of quarks in electrons mean they don't interact with the strong nuclear force, whereas protons and neutrons do. Additionally, protons and neutrons are much more massive, about 2000 times so, than electrons.
An atom with more electrons than protons has a Negative charge. This makes it not a atom but an Ion. A Negatively charged Ion is called a Anion (An-Ai-On) and a positive Ion is called a cation (Cat-ai-on).
Protons are equivalent to a couple of things, one of which you may not be aware of. First of all, they are equivalent to the nucleus of a hydrogen atom. Additionally, they are equivalent to two up quarks plus one down quark. Why? Because quarks are the fundamental particles that comprise both protons and neutrons, and the combination of quarks written above is what makes up protons.

It makes up protons, electrons and neutrons.A quark.
An atom is made of nuetrons, nutrino, anti neutrino, protons, electrons, positron, a nuecleus, and an electron cloud. They are all made from objects that are in you besides atoms.
A nucleus with too few nuetrons is unstable because there are not enough to keep the protons. There must be a certain amount of nuetrons for every element.
A quark is what makes up the nuetrons and protons of an atom. So yes, it could be counted as part of an atom.
All molecular attractions are electrostatic in nature. Electrons are attracted to protons, and various combinations of electrons and protons can be attracted to other combinations of electrons and protons.

Losing electrons makes an atom positively charged (cation) by having more protons than electrons, while gaining electrons makes an atom negatively charged (anion) by having more electrons than protons.
um if i remember correctly an electron has 1840 times less mass than a proton and an electron + a proton makes a neutron so a neutron is one 1840th more hevyer than a proton :P esther says: that is rude so the correct answer is no
Yes, protons and electrons do work together in water, except in the dead sea. protons and electrons work together in air and water, that's what makes a blck sink. Rohit
in the bottom Atomic nucleus is at the center of the atom.
An atom is neutral when the number of protons in the nucleus is equal to the number of electrons surrounding the nucleus. Protons are positively charged, while electrons are negatively charged. The opposite charges balance each other out, resulting in a neutral overall charge for the atom.
the particles that makes up an atom are protons neurons electrons among which electrons are the smallest.
