In Chemistry, the building blocks of all matter are atoms. An atom cannot be chemically subdivided. Atoms are composed of protons, electrons, and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are found in the nucleus of the atom. Protons are positively (+) charged, while neutrons have no charge (are neutral). Electrons orbit around the nucleus on shells. The electrons are negatively charged. Protons and neutrons are responsible for the Atomic Mass while electrons will always be the same as the number of protons, which will give you the atom's atomic number.
