A proton is made of what?
A proton is made of two up quarks and one down quark, which are elementary particles that are held together by the strong nuclear force.
What are protons and netrons made of?
Protons are made up of small particles called quarks. More specificly, a proton is made up of 2 "up" quarks and 1 "down" quark. (note: 'up' and 'down' classify what kind of quark it is. Some other quarks are top, bottom, charm, and strange)
What combination of subatomic particles make up a proton?
Protons are made up of subatomic particles, called quarks. In a proton, there are three quarks: two up quarks, and one down quark (basically positive and negative quarks, but there is a fine difference between up and positive, and down and negative quarks, so down and up are used when referring to types of quarks). So, a proton isn't just a positively charged, solid particle - it is made up of smaller particles. Though, protons aren't broken down any further than quarks, because quarks are elementary particles. Elementary particles are particles that aren't made up of anything smaller than itself.
Which is the smallest particle a molecule an atom a proton a neutron or a quark?
A quark is the smallest known particle, which makes up protons and neutrons found in the nucleus of atoms. This means that quarks are smaller than protons, neutrons, atoms, and molecules.
What types of particles are proton and neutrons and electrons?
Protons and neutrons are composed of smaller particles called quarks. Protons are made of two "up" quarks and one "down" quark, while neutrons are made of two "down" quarks and one "up" quark. Electrons are fundamental particles and are classified as leptons.
Two up quarks and one down quark make up which of the following particles?
Yes, contrast to Proton which is made up of Two up and one down quark.
A proton is made of what?
A proton is made of two up quarks and one down quark, which are elementary particles that are held together by the strong nuclear force.
Is a quark part of a proton?
Yes, a proton is built from two up-quarks and one down-quark.
How many up and down quarks are in one proton?
There are two up quarks and one down quark in a proton.
What are neutrons made from?
Neutrons are made up of small quarks, just like a proton, A neutron is made up of three quarks, two down and one up. ( A proton has two up and one down quark.)
What is the electronically neutral particle found in an atom?
That would be the neutron. It resides within the nucleus of the atom, along with the proton. It is very similar to the proton except that it is electrically neutral. (It is made up of quarks, similar to the proton. However, the neutron is made of one up quark and two down quarks, while the proton is composed of two up quarks and one down quark.)
Which particle is smaller: a proton or a quark?
A quark is smaller than a proton.
What particles are released from the nucleus when a down quark changes into an up quark?
When a down quark changes into an up quark in the nucleus, a Nestor is changing into a proton. The particles released (for almost all neutron to proton transformations) are an electron and an electron anti-neutrino.
How many up quarks and down quarks do protons have?
A proton is made up of two up quarks and one down quark.
What are 3 particle's of the atom?
The up quark, the down quark, and the electron. Two up quarks and a down quark form a proton, and two down quarks and an up quark form a neutron.
Why neutron is heavier than proton even though both contain three quarks?
The quark composition is different: - proton: 2 up quarks + 1 down quark - netron: 2 down quarks + 1 up quark The down quark is heavier.
What are quark combination of proton and neutron?
P=UUD (two up, one down) N=DDU (two down, one up) Down quarks are charge -1/3 relative to a proton and up quarks are charge +2/3 relative to a proton.
