Where are the protonselectronsand neutrons in the atom?

Protons have a positive charge Neutrons have no charge Electrons have a negative charge Protons and Neutrons are found in the nuclei of atoms, while Electrons orbit in layers. Neutrons separate the Protons so that they never touch each other.

How many neutrons protons and electrons are in an an 0-16 atom?

An oxygen-16 atom has 8 protons, 8 neutrons, and 8 electrons. This is because the atomic number of oxygen is 8, which defines the number of protons and electrons, and the atomic mass is 16, which includes both protons and neutrons.

What element has 6 neutrons and protons?

The number of protons defines the element. If an atom has six atoms, then it can only be carbon. If it has six neutrons, then it is 12C.


Subatomic particle that defines the element?

The subatomic particle that defines the element is the proton. The number of protons in the nucleus of an atom determines the element's atomic number, which differentiates one element from another on the periodic table.
