Protons and Neutrons: What Are They?Jean Louis Van Belle
Neutrons, along with protons, are subatomic particles found inside thenucleus of every atom. The only exception is hydrogen, where the nucleus contains only a single proton. Neutrons have a neutral electric charge (neither negative nor positive) and have slightly more mass than positively charged p...
The nucleus is found at the center of the atom and contains subatomic particles that are called protons and neutrons. Protons carry a positive charge, whereas neutrons carry no charge. The protons and neutrons are held together in the nucleus by the nuclear strong force, which overcomes the rep...
By this time, the universe had cooled sufficiently that neutrons and protons could stick together. But the nuclear reactions that led to the formation of helium went on for only a relatively short time. By the time the universe was a few minutes old, helium production had effectively ceased....
electrons, neutrinos, protons, and neutrons are the foundation of matter, while one category of bosons, the gauge bosons, are responsible for acting as the 'carriers' of at least three of the four fundamental forces — electromagnetism, the strong nuclear force, and the weak nuclear for...
The atom is the smallest unit on Earth. It is the basic component of any type of matter. It cannot be broken down or sectioned. Protons, neutrons and electrons make up the subatomic particles of an atom. The three subatomic particles determine the overa

Water, for example, is the compound H2O, meaning two hydrogen atoms combined with one oxygen atom forms one molecule of water. To fully understand matter let's look at the atom. It is now generally accepted that atoms are made up of three particles called neutrons, protons, and electrons....
Matter is composed of atoms at the microscopic level. The atoms are composed of subatomic particles; electrons, protons, and neutrons. The number of these subatomic particles determine the properties of the atom. Some atoms undergo radioactive decay due to instability. ...
What are the parts of an atom?Most atoms have three different subatomic particles inside them: protons, neutrons, and electrons. The protons and neutrons are packed together into the center of the atom (which is called the nucleus) and the electrons, which are very much smaller, whizz around...
