Question 1

what are they

Answer 1

• Atoms are responsible for everything we see around us

Question 2

subatomic particles

Answer 2

• This diagram is a typical representation of the 3 types of sub atomic particles within an atom.
  o Protons (positively charged)
  o Neutron (no charge)
  o Electrons (negative charge)
• Each has specific properties and a location within the atom.
• Atoms have three sub atomic particles
  o Protons. These are found in the Nucleus (centre) and are positively charged.
  o Neutrons. These are also found in the Nucleus (centre) but have no charge.
  o Electrons. These are found on the outside of the atom and are negatively charged.
