An atom is formed from:
- protons with a positive electrical charge
- neutrons which is neutral
- electrons with a negative electrical charge
Only the electron is a fundamental particle.
The 3 Particles in a atom are * Proton * Neutron * Electron
every atom is made up of 3 particles and these are: 1) Electron- negatively charged 2) Proton-positively charged 3)Neutron_electrically neutral
The reason that protons are positive and neutrons have no charge is owed to the fact that quarks, which make up these particles, do not have integral charge. The charge of an up quark is +2/3, and the charge of a down quark is -1/3. When the charges of the quarks are added for the particles, we get the following: Proton = up quark + up quark + down quark = 2/3 + 2/3 - 1/3 = 4/3 - 1/3 = 3/3 = +1 Neutron = up quark + down quark + down quark = 2/3 - 1/3 - 1/3 = 2/3 - 2/3 = 0 (zero)
The metal will have a net charge of -3 because gaining 5 negative charges adds -5, and losing 8 negative charges adds +8, resulting in a total of -3 negative charges.
1) what is electron? 2) what is matter? 3) structure of atom?
The 3 Particles in a atom are * Proton * Neutron * Electron
Quarks have fractional electric charges because they are fundamental particles that carry one-third or two-thirds of the elementary charge. These fractional charges are a consequence of the way quarks interact through the strong nuclear force. Quarks are always found in combinations that result in integral charges when bound together in composite particles like protons and neutrons.
Proton: +1 Electron: -1 Neutron: 0
Particles with unlike charges attract each other because of the electrostatic force of attraction between opposite charges. This force decreases with distance and is stronger the closer the particles are to each other. Positively charged particles attract negatively charged particles, while like charges repel each other.
Three Subatomic Particles: 1) Neutrons- neutral (no) charge. 2) Protons- positive charge (+) . 3) Electrons- negative charge (-) .
Fundamental particles include: 1. photon 2. electron 3. positron 4. proton 5. anti-proton 6. neutron 7. anti-neutron 8. neutrino 9. anti-neutrino 10. Higgs particle 11. muon 12. pion 13. top quark 14. bottom quark 15. up quark 16. down quark 17. strange quark 18. charm quark
The big idea of particles is: Proliferation of Dualities - particle and wave; particle and field;discrete and continuous; objective reality and anthropic idea; math. description and interpretation atc.
For example the fundamental (elementary) particles: electron, positron, 6 quarks (up, down, bottom, charm, top, strange), 6 antiquarks, 8 gluons, 8 antigluons, muon, antimuon, tau, antitau, 3 neutrinos (electron neutrino, muon neutrino, tau neutrino), 3 antineutrinos, photon, 4 bosons (Higgs, W+, W-, Z0), 4 antibosons.
every atom is made up of 3 particles and these are: 1) Electron- negatively charged 2) Proton-positively charged 3)Neutron_electrically neutral
The electron is a point particle with no internal structure. Protons and neutrons have an internal structure of 3 particles, called quarks.
what are the 3 types of charges
The electric force between two charged particles is directly proportional to the product of their charges. If one particle's charge is reduced by a factor of 3, the force will decrease by a factor of 3 as well.
