Nucleus of the standard isotope of carbon atom has 6 protons and 6 neutrons (carbon 12). Other Isotopes of carbon atoms are also possible, such as C14, which has 8 neutrons, and decays by beta particle emission into nitrogen.
The center of an atom is the atomic nucleus.
Carbon atoms are defined as those atoms which have 6 protons in their nucleus. Aside from that I will note that carbon is a very important element. All forms of life that we know of, including ourselves, could not exist without carbon atoms.
Within an atom's nucleus are protons and neutrons. The mass of a atom is consisted majorly from protons and neutrons. If your looking further into the atom's nucleus you'll run into "quarks".
The "dense" central portion of an atom is called the nucleus. The nucleus of an atom contains neutrons and protons.
a particle that revolves around the nucleus of an atom is an electron Electrons
nucleus of carbon atom contains 6 protons and 6 neutrons.
No, it is identical to the nucleus of a helium atom.
The nucleus of a carbon atom is much smaller than the entire carbon atom itself. The nucleus contains protons and neutrons that account for the majority of the atom's mass, while electrons orbit around the nucleus in a relatively large atomic cloud.
An atom with six protons in the nucleus is a carbon element.
Each carbon atom (atom number 6) has 6 protons (in nucleus) and 6 electrons (orbited around), the number of neutrons (also in nucleus) may vary from 6 or (less common) 7 or (rarely) 8.
A carbon 12 atom has a mass defect of .098931 u. This number, the mass defect, represents the binding energy of the nucleus of the nucleus of the atom, and how energy has to be used to split this nucleus.
Twelve. Each proton has one positive charge.

A carbon atom with a mass of 12 has 6 protons and 6 neutrons in its nucleus. This configuration is stable. A carbon atom with a mass of 14 has 6 protons and 8 neutrons in its nucleus, making it somewhat heavier. This configuration is unstable and the nucleus will eventually emit an electron, converting the carbon atom into a nitrogen atom with 7 protons and 7 neutrons in the nucleus.
You will have an unstable carbon atom. The result will be carbon
Its electrons and protons are the same. just determine its electrons form its atomic number
