Basically nucleus is present in the centre of an atom which occupies very little space but it is responsible for most of the mass of atom. Its size can be assumed almost of a cricket ball IF atom is assumed as the stadium. being so small it still has a very complicated structure. It mainly contains 2 fundamental particles neutron - having no charge and mass=1.67493 x 10-27kg and proton having mass=1.67262 x 10-27kg and charge= +1.

The dense particle is called a nucleus. It contains protons and neutrons and is located at the center of an atom.


What is the tiny particle of an atom that moves around the nucleus?

The particle that "circles" the center of an atom is an electron. (In reality, electrons act more like waves vibrating around an atom that particle circling an atom.) (Both neutrons and protons make up the center of an atom, neutrons have no charge and protons a positive one.)


What is Positively charged particles located in the nucleus of an atom?

The particle of an atom that carries a positive charge is called what?

There are three main particles in an atom. The electron, which is negatively charged, the proton, which is positively charged, and the neutron, which carries no charge.


What are the Example of a proton and neutron?

A proton is a positively charged particle in the center of an atom. A neutron is another particle in the center of an atom that has no charge, but still has mass. Each particle, sometimes called a subatomic particle, has a mass of one AMU. The sum of these is the mass of one atom of an element. Electrons, the particles orbiting the nucleus, where protons and neutrons reside, are not taken into account in massing because they are so small.


Which particle found inside an atom has a positive charge?

An atom consists of 3 types of particles, neutrons, protons and electrons. The proton is positive.


What are the sub atomic particles that make up an atom?

The three subatomic particles that make up an atom are the protons, neutrons, and electrons. The protons are positively charged particles that are located in the atomic nucleus at the center of the atom. The neutrons are particles that have no charge and are also located in the nucleus. The electrons are negatively charged particles that are located in the electron cloud surrounding the nucleus.


What is the subatomic particle located farthest from the nucleus of the atom?

The electron is the subatomic particle located farthest from the nucleus of the atom.
