Question

The protons of an atom are

A. negatively charged and located inside the nucleus.

B. positively charged and located inside the nucleus.

C. negatively charged and located outside the nucleus.

D. positively charged and located outside the nucleus.

Answer 1

B

Answer 2

Thank you!

Answer 3

easy way to remember protons- sounds positive
electrons- negative
neutrons-neutral

Found in nucleus are protons & neutrons. On the outer shells is the electrons.

Answer 4

Thank you very much! That is an easy way to remember.

Answer 5

no problem, glad I helped u.

Answer 6

Could you help me with a few more questions?

Answer 7

sure, if I'll try to but be quick because I have to go to sleep real soon.

Answer 8

I'll try to*

Answer 9

Okay.

Answer 10

Describe how protons, neutrons, and electrons each affect the charge and mass of an atom.

Answer 11

well protons are positively charged, neutrons neutral(no charge) and electrons negatively charged. So, charges are affected by protons and electrons. Also, mass is affected by all.

Answer 12

Thank you for explaining that. :)

Answer 13

no problem.

Answer 14

You have time for one more?

An atom of boron has an atomic number of 5 and an atomic mass of 11. The atom contains

A. 5 protons, 6 electrons, and 5 neutrons.

B. 11 protons, 11 electrons, and 5 neutrons.

C. 5 protons, 5 electrons, and 6 neutrons.

D. 11 protons, 6 electrons, and 6 neutrons.

Answer 15

all of them have different masses, and electrons have the smallest mass, some people consider it to be 0, since it's so small.

Answer 16

So what's the answer then?

Answer 17

1. An element's or isotope's atomic number tells how many protons are in its atoms.
2. An element's or isotope's mass number tells how many protons and neutrons in its atoms.

no. of neutrons + no. of protons = Mass number
Atomic number 5 tells us it has 5 protons
x + 5 = 11
x = 11- 5
x = 6
so 5 protons, 6 neutrons and 5 electrons. C.

Answer 18

answer is C, and remember for now no. of protons will be the same as no.of neutrons.

Answer 19

Oh okay! Thank you! :)

Answer 20

and atomic mass is total of protons + neutrons.

Answer 21

Oh okay.

Answer 22

ok, I got to go now Kayla.

Answer 23

Thank you so much for your help!

Answer 24

just try your best, and google it if you have to.
