Parts of the Atom
Three parts of Atom
Protons, Neutrons and, Electrons
Protons and Neutrons are in the centre of an atom
which is called the nucleus. It is very small if you
compare it with the whole atom and it has almost all of
an atom’s mass. If an atom had a diameter of about 6
km the nucleus would only be as big as a tennis ball.
The rest of the atom outside the nucleus is mostly empty.
Electrons fly around in an atom very, very quickly. They
have almost no mass and travel around the nucleus
millions of times every second.
PROTON
PROTON is a subatomic particle found inthe nucleus of every atom. The particlehas a proton is a subatomic particle foundin the nucleus of every atom. The particlehas a positive electrical charge, equal andopposite to that of the electron. If isolated,a single proton would have a mass of only1.673? 10-27 kilogram, just slightly less thanthe mass of a neutron.
NEUTRON
NEUTRON is a subatomic hadrons particle that has the symbol n or n0, no net electric charges and a mass slightly larger than that of a proton.
ELECTRON
ELECTRON is a negatively charged subatomic particle. It can be either free (not attached to any atom), or bound to the nucleus of an atom. Electrons in atoms exist in spherical shells of various radii, representing energy levels. The larger the spherical shell, the higher the energy contained in the electron.
Atomic Number Z
"Atomic number" in German is "Atomzahl", so the Z symbol for atomic number probably comes from "Zahl" (number). The Encyclopedia of symbols has a more poetic interpretation:"The letter Z is one of the signs for the highest god in Greek mythology, Zeus. In modern physics Z represents the greatest energy, nuclear power, in its potential form, nuclear charge."
Atomic Mass A
The atomic mass is the number of portion and neutron in an atom although all atoms of the same elements have the same number of protons, they sometimes have more neutrons. Such atoms are called isotopes
For example:hydrogen has three isotopes most of the time a hydrogen atom has one proton and one neutron. Some time you can find hydrogen isotopes that have two or three neutrons, but they too have only one proton.
