What are 3 subatomic particles that make up an atom and their location?

Answer 1

- Electron - surrounding the nucleus in orbitals/shells with a negative charge and are in a electron cloud - Proton - make up the nucleus with the positive charge - Neutron - make up the nucleus with no charge what so ever

Answer 2

An atom is composed of

1. positively charged protons have a relative mass of ~1 amu (Atomic Mass unit)
2. neutral neutrons have a relative mass of ~1 amu
3. negatively charged electrons have a negligible mass of ~1/1837 amu.

p+ and n0 have approximately equal mass

e- has negligible mass

Answer 3

In Atom's there are normally Neutrons, Protons, and Electrons. Take an Oxygen Atom for example, it has: 8 Electrons, 8 Neutrons and 8 Protons we talk about Subatomic Particles we can break the Neutrons and Protons down into Quarks. A Proton contains two Up quarks and one Down quark. A Neutron contains two Down quarks and one Up quark. An Electron itself is in the Subatomic Particle Table. An Electron is a type of Lepton so you cant break it down any further.

So the evidence here shows us that to make (Basic/Normal) atom you need to have Electron(s) and Up and Down quark(s). In terms of their position in the Atom itself, the Protons and Neutrons (and their Quarks) can be found in the Nucleus of the Atom. The Electron(s) a Lepton, can be found orbiting around the Nucleus either on a single orbit ring or double orbit ring etc. In the oxygen atom the orbiting ring closest to the Nucleus has two Electrons whilst the outer ring has six Electrons orbiting around it.

This should answer the Question.

Answer 4

The three types of particles found in an atom are protons, neutrons and electrons. Protons and neutrons are found in the nucleus and electrons are found in a cloud outside of it.

Answer 5

The most common answer would be the neutron, protons and electrons. But other particles can be found in atoms-quarks (which make up neutrons, protons and electrons) and so on.

Answer 6

the nucleus consists of neutrons & protons collectively known as nucleons. the 3rd major particle is the electron that revolves around the nucleus.

Answer 7

Positively charged protons and neutral neutrons are located inside the nucleus; Negative charged electrons are revolving outside the nucleus.

Answer 8

Protons and neutrons are located in the nucleus of the atom, while electrons are found orbiting the nucleus in electron clouds.

Answer 9

Electrons, protons and neutrons.
