What are the tiny particles that make up protons and neutrons

Chemistry
1 answer:
love history [14]4 years ago
7 0


Protons and neutrons are made up of tiny particles called quarks.

A proton is a baryon made up two Up and one Down  quark.

A neutron is made of two Down quarks and one Up quark.

The Up quarks possess a 2/3 positive charge  while the Down quark possess a 1/3 negative  charge.

When we refer that a proton consists of two Up quarks and a Down, this simply means that its net appearance matches this description.

It is thought that quarks themselves are surrounded by gluons. 

Gluons are the basic particles underlying the strong interaction between protons and neutrons in the nucleus.

The possible number and location of all subatomic are one of them is electrically neutral, while the other has a stable electronic configuration.

<h3>What are subatomic particles?</h3>

Subatomic particles are those particles that are present inside the atoms. They are electron, neutron, and proton. They are charged particles, protons are positively charged, electrons are negatively charged and neutrons are neutral.

The protons and electrons totally contribute to the atomic mass of the elements.

Thus, the subatomic particles are electrically neutral and stable to electronic configurations.

Instructions:

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

A. Constitutional or structural isomers have the same molecular formula but different structural formulas.

B. Conformational isomers are compounds having the same atom to atom connectivity but differ by rotation about one or more single bonds.

C. Stereo isomers are compounds having the same molecular mass and atom to atom connectivity but different arrangement of atoms and groups in space.

I. Enantiomers are stereo isomers (optical isomers particularly) that are non-superimposable mirror images of each other.

II. Diasteromers are optical isomers that are not mirror images of each other.

Both diasteromers and enantiomers are types of optical isomers which in turn is one of the types of stereo isomers.

Stereo isomers differ from conformational isomers in that the arrangement of atoms in stereo isomers is permanent while conformational isomers results from free rotations in molecules about single bonds.

A neutral atom has an atomic number of 20 and a mass number of 42. How many electrons does the atom have?
Bingel [31]

If we have a neutral atom, then it has the same number protons and neutrons.

The number protons and neutrons for neutral atom shows atomic number.

"A neutral atom has an atomic number of 20" means that atom has 20 protons (that give charge "+ 20" ) and 20 electrons (that give charge "-20").

Answer is 20 electrons.
