the proton
No, carbon is not a subatomic particle. Carbon is an element, specifically a chemical element with the symbol "C" and atomic number 6, meaning it has 6 protons in its nucleus. Subatomic particles are particles that are smaller than atoms, such as protons, neutrons, and electrons.
The number of protons determines the element, and is the same as its atomic number.
neutrons
Subatomic particles are the same for all substances that exist everwhere. So to ask "What are the subatomic particles of manganese?" is really not a good question. Manganese is an element. And like all elements, it is made up of atoms. Atoms are made up of.......subatomic particles! (Moledule)(Cation)(Ion)===>Element====>Atom====>Subatomic particle The are three basic subatomic particles: protons, electrons and neutrons. If you really want to get anal about it, you can also find out what neutrons are made up of. I would tell you, but I forgot!
The number of protons is equal to the atomic number of a chemical element.
The simplest form of an element is an atom. Subatomic particles are not a form of the element; they are a "building block" of an element.
element
It's the count of one of the subatomic particles in the nucleus, the proton, that is significant in this regard. For example, an atom is hydrogen if and only if it has one proton in its nucleus. It is neon if and only if it has ten protons in its nucleus.
The number of protons defines the element.
The proton.
Subatomic particles with no charges are neutrons
No, sodium is not a subatomic particle. Sodium is a chemical element with the symbol Na and atomic number 11. Subatomic particles are particles smaller than an atom, such as protons, neutrons, and electrons.
The number of protons defines the element.
Iron is an element..it is made up of subatomic particles.
The protons and neutrons.
No, carbon is not a subatomic particle. Carbon is an element, specifically a chemical element with the symbol "C" and atomic number 6, meaning it has 6 protons in its nucleus. Subatomic particles are particles that are smaller than atoms, such as protons, neutrons, and electrons.
Electrons are the subatomic particles that make an element reactive. Elements react with one another by gaining, losing, or sharing electrons to attain a more stable electron configuration.
