protons and nuetron are the heaviest or lightest part of the atom? | Heaviest. |
What is the approximate number of protons and nuetrons in an atom? | the atomic mass. |
Protons and electrons are always equal, so there is no overall -----? | charge. |
the average distance away from the nucleus at which electrons can travel around is called what? | a shell. |
how many protons are there in the first shell? | 2 protons. |
how many protons are in the 2nd shell? | 8 protons. |
how many protons are in the 3rd shell? | 18. |
Each shell is able to hold a certain number of what depending on its distance from the nucleus. | Electrons |
What is the number of protons in a nucleus? | Atomic number |
What do scientist think about atoms, because no one has seen an atom because they are too small? | Atomic theory |
