Most of it.

The core of an Atom is called the nucleus, it has all the atom's Protons and Neutrons in it. Neutrons are very slightly heavier than Protons and together they are most of the mass.

Outside of the nucleus there are the electrons, they have a negative charge to balance the Protons but very little mass, only about 1/2000 of the weight of a Neutron. SO in short.

Most of it.

Why is Jupiter's central core temperature so much hotter than earth's.?

Jupiter's central core is much hotter than earth because the mass compresses more the more mass compress and the more mass a planet has, the hotter it is.

An electron has a much smaller mass than any atom.


Why is the core so hot?

Some of the core's heat comes from the breakdown of radioactive atoms. Much of the heat energy is left over from when Earth first formed.


Does the atomic mass tell how many atoms are in an element?

The atomic mass tells how much amu one atom of an element weighs. It, minus the atomic number, rounded to the nearest one, gives you the number of neutrons in an atom. The atomic number is the number of electrons and protons. Protons have a positive charge, electrons have a negative charge, and neutrons are neutral.

Is the Mass of hydrogen atom is about the same as a proton?

Yes, in general. All hydrogen atoms contain one proton, most with no neutrons and all neutral atoms with one electron - and the electron has a much smaller mass. Some hydrogen atoms contain one (or, rarely, two) neutrons and so are heavier. But on average the atom has a mass much the same as a proton.
