Week 2- Atomic Structure Flashcards
Charge and mass of neutron
C= 0
M= 1
Charge and mass of proton
C= +1
M= 1
Charge and mass of electron
C= -1
M= 1/1820
Explain electromagnetic force
Attracts opposite electrical charges
Repulses same charge
Explain strong nuclear force
Binds together protons and neutrons within the nucleus
Explain electrostatic force
Repulses things with the same charge
(Protons within nucleus )
