Atomic Structure Section 18.2 The Nucleus Nucleus- contains most of the mass of an atom – Protons & Neutrons contains most of an atom’s mass – Electrons- 1/2000 th of the mass of a proton Grams are not used to measure mass of atoms because atoms are too small – Amu is used inste...
Current is simply a bunch of moving electrons, and moving electrons make a magnetic field. This is how electromagnets are made to work. This will be important to keep in mind as we zoom into the structure of atoms. Around the nucleus of the atom, where the protons and neutrons live, ...

The atom consists of neutrons, protons and electrons with neutrons and protons forming the nucleus of the atom. The nucleus may sometimes become unstable and attains stability by undergoing radioactive decay. Scientists study the decay using scientific models and laws. ...
Physicists often state that nuclear shell structure - the way in which protons and neutrons are arranged within a nucleus - is the cornerstone of any satisfactory description of an atomic nucleus. But over the past decade it has become apparent that the ...
If the atomic number of an element is 12 and the atomic mass is 25: a. How many protons are there in the nucleus? b. How many neutrons are there in the nucleus? c. How many electrons are in the atom? Distinguish between the atomic...
Atoms decay by their nucleus decaying, a trillionth of the size of the atom is the nucleus. That thing can split, it contains say 200 particles (neutrons and protons we call them). So the uranium257 contains 257 particles in its nucleus. Hence its name. There are some such connections,...
Atomic mass is defined as the number of protons and neutrons in an atom, where each proton and neutron has a mass of approximately 1 amu (1.0073 and 1.0087, respectively). The electrons within an atom are so miniscule compared to protons and neutrons that their mass is negligible. The carbo...
