structure of an atom Flashcards
what are the sub atomic particles which atoms are made of
protons, electrons, and nuetrons
draw and label the atom
nucleus- ball with protons and neutrons
electron shells around nucleus with electrons which orbit it
describe the structure of an atom
An atom consists of protons and neutrons in a nucleus. Electrons orbit the electron shells around which is around the nucleus. An electron has a negative charge, a neutron has a neutral charge and protons have a positive charge. A nucleus is made up of neutrons and protons. A nucleus is made up of _neutrons and _protons.
proton relative charge, relative mass and location
charge= +1
mass= 1
location= nucleus
neutron relative charge, relative mass and location
charge= nuetral (0)
mass= 1
location= nucleus
electron relative charge, relative mass and location
charge= -1
mass= 1/2000
location= electron shell
