Answer:
The mass of an atom is found in its nucleus.
Explanation:
An atom is made of three different particles: protons, neutrons and electrons.
Protons (positive charge) and neutrons (no charge) each have a mass of 1 AMU. They are both found in the nucleus (centre) of the atom.
Electrons (negative charge) are considered to have a mass of 0. Their mass is not actually 0, but very close so we do not count them. They are not in the nucleus, but found in shells surrounding the atom.
To calculate the mass of an atom, we add the number of protons and the number of electrons.
m = P + N
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option A. The three components of air are all <span>classified as pure substances since they are not chemically bonded so they can be separated by certain processes and be present as a pure substance. Hope this answers the question.</span>
The hydrogen and oxygen<span> atoms from H</span>₂O are <span>bonded together through covalent </span>bonding.
