Neutral elementary particle in atomic nuclei?

A neutron is a neutral elementary particle found in atomic nuclei. It has no electric charge and is slightly heavier than the proton. Neutrons play a crucial role in stabilizing atomic nuclei through the strong nuclear force.


What is meant by the statement -this element has 3 isotopes?

The statement means that the element in question has three different forms (isotopes) with varying numbers of neutrons in their atomic nuclei. These isotopes of the element share the same number of protons and electrons but have different atomic masses due to the differing number of neutrons.


Which of these statements is true of atomic nuclei.they are very dense.. they contain electrons..they are mostly empty space..they have a neutral charge?

Atomic nuclei are very dense, as they contain protons and neutrons tightly packed together. They do not contain electrons, as electrons orbit around the nucleus. Although nuclei are very small in comparison to the overall size of an atom, they are not mostly empty space. Nuclei typically have a positive charge due to the presence of protons.


Number of protons in boron?

The atomic number of boron is 5, and since the atomic number of an element is the number of protons in the nuclei of its atoms, boron atoms have 5 protons in their nuclei.


Is most of the volume occupied by a piece of copper is taken up by the volume of the copper nuclei?

No, most of the volume occupied by a piece of copper is taken up by the electrons surrounding the copper nuclei. The electrons occupy a much larger volume compared to the nuclei due to their lower mass and ability to move more freely within the atomic structure.

What is the size difference between a cellular nuclei and an atomic nuclei?

Cellular nuclei, found in eukaryotic cells, are significantly larger than atomic nuclei. A typical cellular nucleus has a diameter of about 5 to 10 micrometers, while atomic nuclei measure on the order of femtometers (10^-15 meters), making them roughly a million times smaller than cellular nuclei. This size difference highlights the vast scale of biological structures compared to atomic components.
