All have the spin 1/2.
Protons and neutrons are situated in the nucleus; electrons surround this nucleus.
Atom is the basic unit of matter which consists of three sub-atomic particles.
A chlorine-35 atom has 17 protons, 17 electrons and 18 neutrons, altogether 52 atomic particles. Chlorine-37 has two more neutrons and it has 54 atomic particles.
Number of protons in the nucleus is the atomic number.
Matter actually is made of sub-atomic particles. It would be perfectly reasonable to describe sub-atomic particles as the building blocks of matter. You might imagine that you have to assemble the sub-atomic particles into atoms first, and then use the atoms as your building blocks, but lots of things are not made of atoms; for example, you do not find atoms in the sun, which is so hot that atoms disintegrate into a plasma of atomic nuclei and free electrons.

There are three basic types of atomic particles. Electrons, which have a negative charge, protons with a positive charge and neutrons, which have no charge.
Protons and neutrons; these particles contain quarks and gluons.
Because they are particles, and they are part of the atomic structure.
Sub-atomic particles are even smaller particles that make make an atom
Depends on 'what' particles: sand particles are, and atomic particles are not!
electrons
Sub-atomic particles of matter and anti-matter, that all clumped/combined to form various things... That is the best I can describe it...
There are three basic types of atomic particles. Electrons, which have a negative charge, protons with a positive charge and neutrons, which have no charge.
The term used to describe the loss of electrical energy in transit due to friction among atomic particles is called electrical resistance. This phenomenon results in the conversion of electrical energy into heat energy, leading to a decrease in the efficiency of electrical systems.
