what parts of an atom are located in the nucleus of the atom?
The PROTONS and NEUTRONS. Collectively they are called ' nucleons'. Electrons are in energy shells around the nucleus.
What are three main components of an an atom?
Protons, Neutrons, and Electrons. Protons and Neutrons are found in the nucleus of an atom, and collectively called 'nucleons'. Electrons are found outside the nucleus, in energy shells.
What are the locations of the subatomic particles in an atom?
Neutrons and protons are bound together in the nucleus at the center of the atom; electrons occupy various orbitals or energy levels outside and around the nucleus. Neutrons are neutral or have no charge, protons have a positive charge; electrons a negative charge.
What is a mixture of sub atomic particles nuclei and electrons?
An ATOM. The sub-atomic particles are Protons, Neutrons. and Electrons. The protons and neutrons are collectively named 'nucleons, because they form the nucleus of an atom. The electrons are in energy shells around the nucleus.
The energy released when neutrons and protons combine to form a nucleus is known as the?
BINDING ENERGY Cody p. answered this
What is the location of electrons protons and neutrons?
Electrons -- in energy levels outside the nucleus. Protons in the nucleus. Neutrons in the nucleus.
What is the Location of proton and neutrons?
Electrons -- in energy levels outside the nucleus. Protons in the nucleus. Neutrons in the nucleus.
What is the primary role of the neutrons in the nucleus of an atom?
The primary role of the neutrons in the nucleus of an atom is to contribute to the binding energy or nuclear glue that holds the nucleus itself together. Recall that an atomic nucleus is made of protons and neutrons. Protons have a positive charge, and they don't like each other. In order to overcome the repulsive forces of the protons, neutrons are included in the structure to contribute to the so-called mass deficit. That phenomenon involves the nucleons (the protons and neutrons in a nucleus) losing a bit of mass that is converted into binging energy to hold the neucleus together.
What is nuclear and nucleus binding energy?
Nuclear or nucleus binding energy are one and the same. IT is the force which is holding the nucleons together (protons and neutrons). Higher the binding energy , higher the stability of the nucleus.

The small central part of an atom?
The "dense" central portion of an atom is called the nucleus. The nucleus of an atom contains neutrons and protons.
In order for a heavy nucleus like lead to remain a unit it must have 1.5 times more neutrons than protons to overcome what electrostatic forces?
Lead can only stay together if it has enough nuclear binding energy to overcome the electrostatic repulsive forces of all the protons in the nucleus of its atom. Remember that protons are positive charges, and like charges repel. Only nuclear glue, that binding energy, holds the nucleus together. This binding energy is generated during the process wherein the atomic nucleus was created. The neutrons and protons that are going to be in a nucleus all suffer a slight reduction in their mass. This mass deficit is converted into the binding energy that holds a nucleus together. That's why it takes all those neutrons in the nucleus of an atom to keep the whole thing together.
What helps protons stay thogether in the neculous of an atom?
Protons = positive. Neutrons = no charge. So, since they're in the nucleus together, they cancel each other out and the energy flowing through the nucleus remains.
What is the energy in the nucleus of an atom?
the nucleus is composed of protons and neutrons so the energy of the atoms necleus is allways a positive charge since their are only electrons present on the outside of the atom. Neutrons have no charge and do not contribute to the energy of the nucleus
What two particles are in the nucleus?
(The constituent particles of an atom are the electron, the proton and the neutron; all three are fermions. However, the hydrogen-1 atom has no neutrons and the hydron ion has no electrons.) WIkipedia
