The particle furthest from the centre of each atom is?
Mariama Fofanah
If you're talking about the area farthest from the nucleus that is still within the atom, it's the electron cloud.

How can you figure out how many of each subatomic particle is in a atom has?
j
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 subatomic particle number determines the identity of an element?
The number of protons, which is the atomic number of an element, determines the identity of an element.
What is the kind of decay that's results in the formation of a different element?
Alpha decay is a kind of radioactive decay in which an alpha particle is emitted from an atom. An alpha particle consists of two protons and two neutrons. Therefore, when an atom of an element undergoes alpha decay, it loses two protons, which changes the atom from one element to another. This is because each different element is identified by the number of protons in its atomic nuclei.
What is the number of atoms in FCC unit cell?
A FCC or Face Centered cubic unit cell has 4 atoms. It is calculated like this. There are 8 corners of the unit cell and each corner has one atom.But each atom is shared by 8 unit cells. So. total no. of atoms at corners= 1/8 *8=1 atom . Also, there are 6 faces which have one electron in the centre of it. Each such electron is shared between 2 unit cells. This gives the total no. of atoms at the centre of faces of unit cell=1/2 * 6 = 3 atoms. Adding the two, we get four atoms in an unit cell 1+3=4 atoms.
What particle in an atom makes each elements unique?
in an atom protone makes the each element unique
Where is each subatomic particle located inside an atom?
it is located around an atom orbiting it
How can you figure out how many of each subatomic particle is in a atom has?

How can you find the number of each subatomic particle found in an atom of a particular element?
By looking at the atom.
Does each center of each atom conain neutrons and electrons?
No. The nucleus (the centre) contains protons and neutrons
What is the electric charge of each particle in an atom?
Proton: positive Electron: negative Neutron: neutral
What is the electrical charge of each particle in the atom?
Proton: positive Electron: negative Neutron: neutral
What particle of an atoms tells us how to find the atomic number?
the number of protons in each atom
What is a particable?
A particle is an atom which cant be seen by the naked human eye, everything is made up of: in solids; gasses and liquids. Each atom contains electrons, protons and neutrons, which is what gives each particle its properties. Solids tend to have more compact particles where as gasses have less.
What are the Example of a proton and neutron?
A proton is a positively charged particle in the center of an atom. A neutron is another particle in the center of an atom that has no charge, but still has mass. Each particle, sometimes called a subatomic particle, has a mass of one AMU. The sum of these is the mass of one atom of an element. Electrons, the particles orbiting the nucleus, where protons and neutrons reside, are not taken into account in massing because they are so small.
How is an oxygon atom different from a carbon atom?
a carbon atom has 6 protons and electrons and nuetrons where as an oxygen atom has 8 of each. the carbon atom also tends to mix with more because there is more room in the 2nd orbital area for valence electrons. :)Mini Dictionary:-proton: a positive particle found in the middle (nucleas) of an atom-nuetron: a nutreal particle found also in the nucleas that holds the atom together-electron: a negitivly charged particle orbiting the nucleas. so tiny it doesnt weigh into the atom- valence electron: electrons on the outside orbital area of an atom-CaDeNcE wEsLey
What is the name of the smallest paricle of an element that has the properties of that element?
An atom is the smallest particle of an element that has the properties of that element. The atom consists of a certain amount of electrons, protons and usually neutrons. The amount of each of these sub-atomic particles is what makes an element. No Sub-Atomic Particles have any characterisitics of an element. It is the collective arrangement of electrons and protons (and usually neutrons) which gives an element its characteristics. An atom is the smallest particle that has elemental characteristics.
