The nucleus of an atom is held together by the strong force, to which both protons and neutrons contribute. The problem is that protons also contribute to the electromagnetic force, which repulses the protons from each other. The strong force has a much smaller range than the electromagnetic force, so in large atoms, protons only receive the attractive strong force from the protons around it while receiving the repulsive electromagnetic force from all of the protons in the nucleus. This is why large atoms tend to be unstable, and where neutrons come in. Neutrons add to the attractive strong force while having no charge that would add to the repulsive electromagnetic force. Without neutrons, the larger atoms could not stay together, their nuclei would be destroyed.
Atoms that do not have any protons are called neutrons.
Protons which are positively charged and neutrons which are neutral.
electrons, protons, and neutrons. These subatomic particles make up the structure of an atom.
Yes, 1H (Hydrogen-1), the most common isotope of hydrogen has a single protons and no neutrons.
The smallest component of an atom is the electron. Protons and neutrons are found in the nucleus of an atom, while electrons orbit around the nucleus. Atoms are made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons.
You think probable to neutrons.
They are made of electrons, neutrons and protons.
protons and neutrons i think.
you would have to check out the density in order to think in neutrons so yes
atoms which are made out of electrons, protons and neutrons
neutrons of all atoms are alike
Protons and neutrons are subatomic particles found in the nucleus of atoms (with the exception of hydrogen atoms, which have no neutrons).
You think probable to protons, neutrons and electrons - components of atoms.
All atoms have neutrons, protons and electrons.
Particles in an atoms nucleus which do not have electric charge are Neutrons.
Atoms of all elements can have neutrons in them. Only the element hydrogen has an isotope whose atoms do not contain neutrons, but all other isotopes of hydrogen have neutrons in them. In the heavier elements the number of neutrons always exceeds the number of protons in the atom.
You think probable to isotopes; only the number of neutrons is different.
