electron a negatively charged subatomic particle that can be either free (not attached to any atom) or bound to the nucleus of an atom and has negligible mass; determines the chemical reactivity of an element
electron cloud the system of electrons surrounding the nucleus of an atom
the system of electrons surrounding the nucleus of an atom
mass (atomic) the quantity of matter contained in an atom of an element, measured in atomic mass units (amu)
neutron a non
nucleus (atomic) the positively charged center of an atom, composed of neutrons and protons, and possessing most of the mass but occupying only a small fraction of the volume of the atom
