What particles make up the mass of the atom?
Protons and neutrons, the particles that make up atomic nuclei, are the ones responsible for almost all of the mass of an atom. As the electron has less than 1/1800th the mass of a proton, a whole flock of electrons won't significantly change the mass of an atom. We look to the protons and neutrons (called nucleons when they are being considered as components of an atomic nucleus) to contribute to the mass of an atom, and they will be considered when we derive the atom weight of an element.
In Bohr's model which particles make up the most mass of the atom?
the electron particles make up the mostr mass
What contributes to the mass of the atom?
number of protons and number of neutrons
Which particles account for most of the atoms mass?
Physics has not managed to discover a particle that accounts for mass
Where is most of the atoms mass found?
An atom's mass is concentrated in its nucleus, which is located in the center of the atom. Protons and neutrons within the nucleus are responsible for its mass; the electrons, which are located outside of the nucleus, don't contribute to the mass of the atom.

What subatomic particle contributes alomst no weight to an atom?
The subatomic particles that contribute most almost no weight to an atom are electrons at various energy levels. Isotopes of the same element differ from each other only by the number of neutrons.
What subatomic particle or particles contributes the most to the mass of the atom?
These particles are protons and neutrons.
In Bohr's model which particles make up the most mass of the atom?

What particles make up most of the mass atom?
air,mater
What part of the atom contains most of its mass?
The nucleus, made up of protons and neutrons, contains most of an atom's mass.
What particles take up most of the mass of an atom?
Protons and neutrons make up most of the mass of an atom. Electrons weigh almost nothing by comparison.
What particles have the most mass?
In the atom the heaviest particle is the neutron but the proton is close.
What contributes to the mass of the atom?
number of protons and number of neutrons
Subatomic particles responsible for most of an atom's mass?
Protons and neutrons.
