It depends on which isotope of carbon we are talking about.
Each Proton contains 2 up and 1 down quark and each neutron contains 2 down and 1 up quark.
Carbon 12 contains 6 neutrons and 6 protons. So for this isotope the answer would be 36 quarks in total.
The protons and neutrons (which in the atom is in the nuclues) are made from quarks. The proton is built from two up-quarks and one down-quark and the neutron is built from one up-quark and two down-quarks.
A carbon atom typically has 6 protons.
One carbon monoxide molecule consists of one carbon atom and one oxygen atom.
A single atom of Carbon has 6 electrons, with 4 in the outer shell which it will use to react
An atom of sulfur is about 2.5 times heavier than an atom of carbon. This is because sulfur has a greater atomic mass (32) compared to carbon (12).
In an atom, the neutrons and protons are made up of up quarks and down quarks. Strange quarks, charms quarks, top quarks, and bottom quarks also exist, but do not play as much of a role in the structure of an atom.
Atoms may have quarks, but definitely not quarts
Quarks
Atomic nucleus contain neutrons and protons; and both contain quarks and gluons.
There are 3 quarks in each neutron. There are 12 neutrons in each proton. There is 1 proton in each atom. There is 36 quarks in each atom. There are about 27 million atoms in each grain of sand. 36 x 27,000,000 = 972,000,000. There are 972 million quarks in a grain of sand.
An atom of carbon has 6 protons.
The protons and neutrons (which in the atom is in the nuclues) are made from quarks. The proton is built from two up-quarks and one down-quark and the neutron is built from one up-quark and two down-quarks.
Quarks are tiny parts of an atom to an extent. Atoms are made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons. Protons a neutrons are made up of three quarks each. Electrons, however, are not made of quarks.
Hadrons are composed of 3 quarks. Protons and neutrons are hadrons. The 2 types of quarks used in this instance are up quarks and down quarks. Yes, there are quarks in a nucleus.
A carbon atom typically has 6 protons.
There are multiple types of carbon atoms (Carbon 12, Carbon 13, and Carbon 14).
Quarks are fundamental particles that make up protons and neutrons, which are in turn components of an atom. Quarks play a crucial role in the structure of an electron by interacting with other particles to form the overall structure of an atom. In an electron, quarks are not directly involved, as electrons are considered elementary particles and do not contain quarks.
