It isn't an atom, it would actually be a stable Fluorine Ion with a -1 charge.

What do electrons and neutrons and prontons have to do with the elementes in the periodic table?

Elements are made of one type of atom. Atoms are made of electrons, neutrons and protons


Are protons neutrons and electrons elements?

No, protons, neutrons, and electrons are not elements. Protons and neutrons are subatomic particles found in the nucleus of atoms, while electrons orbit the nucleus. Elements are substances made up of one type of atom, characterized by the number of protons in their nucleus.


What are the three basic parts of an atom and where are they found?

Protons and neutrons are found in the center of the atom in a core called the nucleus. Electrons are found in a cloud that continually moves around the nucleus


Describes what makes up an atom?

An atom is made of protons, neutrons and electrons. The type of atom (element) depends on how many protons it has, the isotope of the atom depends on how many neutrons it has and the charge of the atom depends on how many electrons it has. Now, protons and neutrons can be considered a type of matter while electrons can be considered a type of energy. (they really aren't but they can be considered that way) The electrons provide the energy that holds different atoms together into molecules. The electron clouds are very big and puffy compared to the proton/neutron center which can be compaired to a lump of sugar-coated peanuts in the center of a large wad of cotton candy. Except that this cotton candy comes in an odd, spiky shape and the spikes connect to the other spikes of other cotton candy electons.


What is and element?

an atom is the basic unit of life. it is composed of protons, neutrons, and electrons. an element is composed of a single type of atom (for example: pure gold is made up of atoms containing exactly 79 protons and 79 electrons...the number of neutrons varies depending on if the atoms are isotopes)

Protons neutrons and electrons combine to form what?

Protons, neutrons, and electrons can form any type of atom on the Periodic Table of Elements.The amount of protons determine what type of element an atom is.If the number of neutrons differ from the stable amount it should have, the atom is known as an isotope.If the amount of electrons differ from the amount of protons, the atom is known as an ion.


What does protons electrons neutrons mean?

Electrons, protons, and neutrons are different parts of an atom. The proton is positive and the electron is negative while the neutron is of both equally. Depending on the number of each is in an atom, is the type of atom you have.

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 two particles in an atom?

There're two particles in the atom nucleus (protons and neutrons)


what parts of an atom are located in the nucleus of the atom?

The nucleus of an atom contains protons and neutrons, which are the two types of subatomic particles found in the nucleus. Electrons, the third type of subatomic particle in an atom, are located in the electron cloud surrounding the nucleus.

What does each type of atom in a molecule have?

Each type of atom in a molecule has a specific number of protons, neutrons, and electrons. Protons carry a positive charge, neutrons have no charge, and electrons carry a negative charge. The arrangement and interaction of these components determine the chemical properties of the molecule.


Is the smallest particle of an element called an atom?

Actually elements are made of one type of atom. In an atom, there are three particles: protons, neutrons and electrons. Then, there are many more particles making up the protons, neutrons and electrons. These are the quarks. They are so far the smallest part of an element. :)

Which subatonic particles are found in the nucleus of an atom?

The nucleus of an atom is made up of protons and neutrons. Which are then made up of quarks. This type of science is called quantum mechanics.
