How many proton electron and neutron dose beryllium have?

Beryllium has 4 protons and normally 4 neutrons in its nucleus. It usually has 4 electrons orbiting that nucleus, but this number can change depending on its level of ionisation.


Within an atom protons and neutrons are found in the?

Protons are found in nucleus, as neutrons are also.


Why are electrons usually found near the nucleus?

Electrons are usually found near the nucleus due to the attractive force of the positively charged protons in the nucleus. This force keeps the electrons in orbit around the nucleus rather than floating away. The balance between the attractive force of the protons and the repulsive force of the electrons determines the electron's energy level and distance from the nucleus.


What is the difference between a proton an an electron?

Protons and Electrons are actually quite different. Protons have a positive electric charge, while electrons have a negative electric charge. Atoms usually have the same number of protons and electrons, which means they balance each other out giving a neutral electric charge. If there are more of either protons or electrons, the atom will have an overall charge. (Negative or Positive). Protons are also located in the nucleus with the neutrons, while electrons are located in the outer shells surrounding the nucleus.


What does a dot diagram and a atomic number have in common?

they both show particles but an atomic number is the amount of protons in the nucleus and a dot diagram is to show the bonding of atoms with electrons. and does not show the amount of electrons those atoms have but the valence electrons each atom has

How do the number of protons in the atomic nucleus normally compare to the number of electrons that orbit the nucleus?

The number of protons is usually the same as the number of electrons!:)


Where are the electrons located in Bohr's atomic model?

In this model, the electrons move or orbit around the protons that are at the center of the atom. Electrons move around the nucleus, which contains the proton, in orbits that have a definite size and energy.

Why is matter usually neutral?

Protons and neutrons are found in the nucleus, but electrons surround the nucleus. (Electron cloud.)


What does a lithium atom contain?

A lithium atom contains three protons, three electrons, and usually four neutrons in its nucleus. The electrons occupy energy levels around the nucleus in a specific configuration.


What holds electrons in their shells?

The electrons "orbit" the nucleus of an atom. They do so because they are attracted to the positive charge of the protons inside the nucleus. They do not usually leave the atom because of this attraction, and do not usually fall into the nucleus because they are moving.


What does the atom of?

An atom has a nucleus composed of protons and usually neutrons as well (there is only one kind of atom which has no neutrons, which is the hydrogen 1 isotope) and it also has electrons surrounding the nucleus, with the same number of electrons as the number of protons in the neutrons.


Which element is an atom with six protons in the nucleus?

An atom with six protons in the nucleus is a carbon element.


Atoms are electrically what?

Atoms are electrically neutral because they have an equal number of positively charged protons in the nucleus and negatively charged electrons orbiting the nucleus. This balance of charges results in a net charge of zero for the atom.
