What makes the atom different from others they all have protons neutrons and electrons?
well, protons, neutrons and electrons react to each other, so I'm thinking that they make different things when a certain number of them connect in their own connection. they stay the same when they want to become stable atoms and join up with other electrons that belong to a different atom, because the "borrowed" electron doesn't really belong in that atom so the element stays the same. Hope my answer works for you curiosity driven people:)!
What else can I help you with?
What tiny particles in an atom have no charge?
Neutrons, the others protons and electrons are both charged
What is the name of the positively charged particles in the center atom?
The three main particles in an atom are the protons, neutrons and electrons. Electrons orbit around the atoms where the others 'reside' in the center. Protons are positively charged where neutrons have no charge.
What is the atomic particle that has an extremely small mass compared to the others?
Of the 3 atomic particles protons, neutrons and electrons, electrons have the smallest mass.
What atomic particle that determines a specific isotope?
Atoms are electrically neutral. The number electrons and number of protons in neutral atoms are same. The number of neutrons in some atoms are same as the number of protons. Example: Calcium atom contains 20 protons and 20 neutrons. But some atoms contain same number of protons but different number of neutrons. For example carbon atoms exist in three forms - all contain 6 protons but some contain 6 neutrons, some 7 neutrons and others with 8 neutrons. These type of atoms are known as isotopes Definition of isotope: Atoms with same number of protons but different number of neutrons It shows that the different number of neutrons determines the existence of isotopes.

If an atom has 19 protons and 20 neutrons how much electrons does it have?
It depends. From the given information about the number of protons, we can be sure that we are talking about potassium. The number of neutrons in this case won't matter. If the question emphasizes "atom" then we can be sure that the particle is neutral. Then we know that for the particle to be neutral, it has to have the same number of electrons as protons. However, potassium will not stay neutral for long if given a chance. It will lose an electron when bonding with others, to eventually have 18.
Do all atoms weight the same?
No, not all atoms weigh the same. The weight of an atom is determined by the combined mass of its protons, neutrons, and electrons. Different elements have different numbers of protons, neutrons, and electrons, leading to variations in atomic weight.

What two particles are in the nucleus?
(The constituent particles of an atom are the electron, the proton and the neutron; all three are fermions. However, the hydrogen-1 atom has no neutrons and the hydron ion has no electrons.) WIkipedia

What are the atoms are made up of three subatomic particles called?
strictly speaking, not atoms but parts of them: you are thinking of the Proton, Neutron and electron, as basic atomic PARTICLES. there are others such as the Meson and positron known mainly to atomic scientists and that"s about it. the three basic Nuclear building blocks- are Proton, Neutron, and Electron. Zap!
An atomic particle not in the nucleus is a?
Electrons are the only subatomic particles which are not part of the nucleus. The others, protons and neutrons, are.
Are atoms composed of protons and neutrons and electrons?
Yes, the center (nucleus) contains positively charged particles (protons) and neutral particles (neutrons) that are surrounded by negatively charged particles (electrons) that orbits around the nucleus. Depending on the atom and number of electrons, the electrons can be found in different types of orbits: spherical, coplanar, pyramidal, quadrilateral and others.
What is the atomic particle that has an extremely small mass compared to the others?
Of the 3 atomic particles protons, neutrons and electrons, electrons have the smallest mass.

Most matter of earth is made up of these small particles?
Everything in the universe is made up of quarks, electrons, gluons, and a few others that we know of. Actuallly the answer is atoms. Most matter of earth is made up of these small particles are elctrons, protons, and neutrons. In other words, an atom.
