How do you figure out the subatomic particle numbers for each element?

Number of protons= Atomic number Number of neutrons= Mass number-Atomic number Number of electrons=Number of protons (If there is no charge on the atom)


Why did Rutherford say that bombarding atoms with particles was like playing with marbles What subatomic particle did Rutherford discover during this phase of his work?

Rutherford compared bombarding atoms with particles to playing with marbles because, just as marbles can bounce off each other or collide in unpredictable ways, particles striking atoms can lead to various outcomes, such as deflections or reactions, revealing the structure of the atom. During this phase of his work, Rutherford discovered the nucleus of the atom and identified the proton as a subatomic particle, fundamentally altering our understanding of atomic structure.


How is it possible that an atom has no charge or is said to be neutral with an atom containing subatomic particles which possess charges?

there is an equal number of positive and negative charges which exactly cancel each other out.


What subatomic particle identifies boron?

Boron has 5 electrons and protons; the number of neutrons is specific for each isotope. Number of neutrons in a boron isotope = Mass number - 5


What subatomic particles comprise the nucleus?

The two Subatomic particles which are in the Nucleus of an Atom is the Up and Down quark. When we think about the Nucleus of an Atom it is made up with Neutrons and Protons. Both Neutrons and Protons are made up with Quarks (a type of Subatomic Particle) Neutrons have to Down quarks and one Up quark. Whilst Protons have two Up quarks and one Down quark. So we can see that the Nucleus of an Atom is not only made up but dependent on Up and Down quarks.This should answer the Question.

How can you find the number of each subatomic particle found in an atom of a particular element?

By looking at the atom.


Where in the atom do you find each of the subatomic particles?

The only subatomic particle that has any role in chemistry is the electron.


The subatomic particle that is most responsible for how an atom reacts with other atoms is?

Assuming that you mean the chemical properties, the electrons are what define each element. If you meant subatomic particles, then it doesn't matter; each subatomic particle has unique characteristics.


What is the charge on each subatomic particle?

For the atom: Neutron: Charge: neutral Electron: Charge: negative Proton: Charge: positive


What is the class of matter that has more than one kind of particle?

The answer depends on what you mean by a "particle". Everything is made of atoms and each atom is made from a number of different subatomic particles. Therefore, everything is made up different subatomic particles.


How can you figure out how many of each subatomic particle is in a atom has?

To determine the number of each subatomic particle in an atom, you need to know the atom's atomic number and mass number. The atomic number tells you the number of protons, while the mass number gives you the total number of protons and neutrons combined. Subtract the atomic number from the mass number to find the number of neutrons. Electrons will equal the number of protons in a neutral atom.


What subatomic particle makes an element unique?

The number of protons is unique for every element.Varying the number of neutrons will give you an isotope of the same element.Varying the number of electrons will give you an ion of the same element.

How many protons and neutrons does an atom have and where are each of these subatomic particles located?

Atoms can have anywhere from 1 to somewhere around 260-290 subatomic particles. The protons and neutrons are located in a clump in the center of the atom, surrounded by rapidly revolving electrons
