The nucleon was not "discovered" per se. That's because the term nucleon, which is a derived word coming from nucleus, can be fairly applied to either of the two particles that make up the nucleus of an atom. You already know these particles are the proton and neutron. We don't call either particle a nucleon when that particle is outside the nucleus, but only when they're inside atomic nuclei. Nucleon is actually an umbrella term that isn't "one specific particle or thing" as we know it.
What else can I help you with?
What is the term for any particle found in the nucleus?
nucleon
What are Neutrons also called?
A Neutron can also be called a "Nucleon". Protons and Neutrons are both nucleons. But the Nucleon more hevy than Neutron
Which numbers are added to give the nucleon number of an ion?
No need to add. Use the elemnts mass number, which is the number of protons plus the number of neutrons
Which subatomic particle can be called a nucleon?
A nucleon refers to either a proton or a neutron, which are the subatomic particles found within the nucleus of an atom. Both protons and neutrons are collectively known as nucleons.
What can you conclude about the particle labeled 1 1 P?
It has one nucleon. It has no neutrons. It has one proton.
What is the term for any particle found in the nucleus?
nucleon
When does a nucleon have more mass?
A nucleon has more mass when it is not bound to the nucleus of an atom. When the nucleon is bound to other nucleons the binding energy that keeps them together comes from the mass of the nucleon. Therefore the mass of a single nucleon will be smaller in an atom than on it's own.
What has the author A N Antonov written?
A. N. Antonov has written: 'Nucleon correlations in nuclei' -- subject(s): Nuclear structure, Nucleon-nucleon interactions 'Nucleon momentum and density distributions in nuclei' -- subject(s): Angular distribution (Nuclear physics), Angular momentum (Nuclear physics), Nuclear structure
Is the protron a nucleon?
Yes, the proton is a nucleon. The term nucleon is used to speak of component particles of the nucleus of an atom. That means either a proton or a neutron. The term nucleon can be applied to either the proton or neutron when speaking of these particles as building blocks of atomic nuclei. Use the link to the related question below for more information.
What is an antinucleon?
An antinucleon is an antiparticle of a nucleon.
What has the author R O Jack written?
R. O. Jack has written: 'Skyrmions, effective lagrangians and the nucleon-nucleon interaction'
Which subatomic particle can also be called a nucleon?
A nucleon s a particle that makes up the nucleus of an atom. Protons and neutrons are both nucleons.
At what mass number does the binding energy per nucleon peak?
The binding energy per nucleon peaks at a mass number of around 56.
What does the binding energy per nucleon graph reveal about the stability and energy release in nuclear reactions?
The binding energy per nucleon graph shows that the higher the binding energy per nucleon, the more stable the nucleus is. In nuclear reactions, energy is released when the reactants form products with higher binding energy per nucleon, indicating a more stable configuration.
Why do you think the nucleon number of chlorine is 35.5 which is not a whole number?
The nucleon number is not 35.5! Chlorine has isotopes with 35 or 37 nucleons but a fractional number is not possible.
How does the binding energy per nucleon vary in fission reactions?
In fission reactions, the binding energy per nucleon decreases as a heavy nucleus splits into smaller fragments. This is because the smaller fragments have a higher binding energy per nucleon compared to the original heavy nucleus.
What element has the highest binding energy per nucleon?
Iron has the highest binding energy per nucleon among all the elements. This is because iron's nucleus is the most stable in terms of binding energy per nucleon, making it the peak of the curve on the binding energy curve.
