It depends upon which chemical element the atom is a part of .

Most have electrons and protons with Hydrogen the most basic with one each and Lawrencium with 103 elactrons and 159 protons.

How many total number of particles present in one atom?

The answer depends on the atom! The total number of subatomic particles in an atom of an isotope is the sum of the mass number and the atomic number of the isotope; the mass number counts the protons and neutrons together, and the atomic number recounts the number of protons, which in a neutral atom must be the same as the number of protons.


How many articles are there in an atom?

An atom consists of three main subatomic particles: protons, neutrons, and electrons. It does not contain articles in the traditional sense of written works.


How many subatomic particles does chlorine have?

Chlorine has 18 subatomic particles, which consist of 17 protons, 18 neutrons, and 17 electrons.


What are the properties of particles?

The atom is the smallest part of matter that represents a particular element. For quite a while, the atom was thought to be the smallest part of matter that could exist. But in the latter part of the 19th century and early part of the 20th, scientists discovered that atoms are composed of certain subatomic particles and that, no matter what the element, the same subatomic particles make up the atom. The number of the various subatomic particles is the only thing that varies. Scientists now recognize that there are many subatomic particles (this really makes physicists salivate). But in order to be successful in chemistry, you really only need to be concerned with the three major subatomic particles: Protons Neutrons Electrons


How many types of subatomic particles are there?

Over 200 types are known.However, there are 3 that form the basic structure of atoms: protons, electrons, and neutrons. There is also an anti-particle of the electron, the positron, that is seen in radioactive decay.

What are positiely charged subatomic particles?

Of the hundreds of subatomic particles, many have an electric charge. The best-know particle with a positive charge is the proton. Subatomic particles are considered only protons, neutrons, electrons. The other particles form the large group of elementary particles (which includes also p, n and e).

How many subatomic particles does element calcium has?

All elements have three subatomic particles: Protons: positive forces, centered in the nucleus of the atom with neutrons Neutrons: neutral forces, centered in the nucleus of the atom with protons Electrons: negative forces, centered in different energy levels outside the nucleus of the atom Between all these particles, there is only empty space; nothing.


What subatomic particles are found outside the atomic nucleus?

The particles outside of an atom are called electrons :D
