What makes an element more massive?
The number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom determines its mass. Elements with more protons and neutrons are more massive. Additionally, the mass of an element can be influenced by the presence of isotopes, which have varying numbers of neutrons.
The tiny particles that make up atoms are called what?
Atoms are made up of tiny particles called electrons. The nucleus of an atom contains a mix of positively charged protons and neutrual neutrons. An atom is classified by the number of protions compared to the number of electrons. If it is neutral it is classified as an ion, if it has more protons the atom is positively charged, and if it has more electrons than the atom is negatively charged. If a group of atoms are bound together they become a molecule.
What is a normal atom?
Its a normal atom if it have same protons, neutrons, and electrons to the one of the periodic table. If it have more or less neutrons than normal then its an isotope. If it have more protons than electrons then its a positive ion. If it have more electrons than protons then its a negative ion. An ion its a charged atom, more or less electrons than " normal " Isotopes its an atoms with the same number of protons, but different number of neutrons.
Do neutral lithium atoms contain more neutrons than protons?
Neutral lithium atoms contain more neutrons than protons. A lithium atom typically has 3 protons in its nucleus, giving it an atomic number of 3, and it usually has 4 neutrons which adds to the mass number of 7.
What is the number of e- p and n in a neutral atom of nitrogen?
No. of protons is 7. No. of neutrons is atomic weight -no. of protons. In neutral atom no. of protons equals the number of electrons which would be 7 in this case. Refer to periodic table for more information.
What is the term for the situation when an atom has more neutrons than protons?
The term for the situation when an atom has more neutrons than protons is called neutron excess or neutron-rich.
An atom with a nucleus that contains more neutrons than protons is called?
An anion
What is contained inside the nucleus of an atom?
The nucleus of an atom contains protons and neutrons, which are called nucleons. Protons have a positive charge, while neutrons have no charge. Electrons, which have a negative charge, orbit around the nucleus in electron clouds.
Protons and neutrons together are known as?
no there are different elements, and you can check a periodic table for more information.
What are the nucleus of most atoms consist of?
The nucleus of an atom is made up of two types of subatomic particles, protons and neutrons which together are sometimes called nucleons. These subatomic particles are in turn made up of smaller particles called quarks.
What happens when an atom as more protons and neutrons?
lzc
Within an atom protons and neutrons are found in the?
Protons are found in nucleus, as neutrons are also.
D Particles found in the nucleus of nucleus of atoms?
Protons and Neutrons are found in the Nucleus of the Atom. An atom's atomic number corresponds to the amount of protons (differnt amount of protons=different element). There are usually the same amount of Neutrons and Protons, but in some cases theere are more Neutrons (these are called different isotopes).
When an atom has an unbalanced ratio of protons and neutrons what will it try to do to stabalize itself?
There generally isn't a problem; the more protons an atom has, the more neutrons it takes to glue them together. A Helium atom has two protons and generally two neutrons; in every other stable atom, there are more neutrons than protons. There are isotopes of elements with fewer-than-normal numbers of neutrons; these isotopes are generally unstable and radioactive, and will generally decay into other elements.
Which particles in an atom contribute most to mass of the atom?
The particles are protons, neutrons, and the nucleus inside of the atom Nice helping u >_<
What is in the core of every atom?
The nucleus of the atom contains the protons and neutrons. The number of protons, called the "atomic number", determines what kind of element this is. There are almost always more neutrons in the nucleus than protons, except for very light elements. For example, hydrogen has one proton and no neutrons, while helium contains two protons and two neutrons.
An atom that has more protons than neutrons they conain are?
lallllllaaaaaaaaaheheheheheeh
