Question

Describe the nucleus of the atom.

Answer 1

Answer:

The nucleus of atom is composed of two subatomic particles that each have charges.

• Protons, which are positively charged particles.
• Neutrons, which are neutrally charged particles.

Both reside in the nucleus of an atom. The amount of protons and neutrons (Electrons can to) is what helps us identify each atom apart. Electrons are NOT in the nucleus of atom but orbit it in outer layers called orbitals.
