Protons and neutrons are found in the nucleus of an atom. Traveling around the nucleus are fast-moving particles called electrons. Each electron has a negative electrical charge. An electron is much smaller and lighter than a proton or a neutron.Which of the following statements are true? Select all that apply.All of an atom's electrons are located outside its nucleus.An electron has a negative electrical charge.A proton is the same size as an electron.Submit

State whether these statements are true or false. Electrons can be found any distance from the nucleus.Protons can only be found in the nucleus.

Neutrons are..A...charged particles found in the nucleus.B...found in every atom.C...smaller than protons, but bigger than electrons.D...neutral and found in the nucleus.

Which statement below is NOT consistent with the nuclear theory of the atom as proposed by Rutherford?    Group of answer choicesMost of the atom's mass and all of its positive charge is contained in a small core called the nucleus.Electrical charge is a fundamental property of protons and electrons.Most of the volume of the atom is empty space occupied by tiny, negatively charged electrons.There are as many electrons outside the nucleus as there are protons inside the nucleus in a neutral atom.All of the above statements are consistent.

Almost all of an atom's mass is found in its nucleus, located in the center of the atom. An atom's nucleus can contain two types of particles: protons and neutrons.The nucleus of every atom contains one or more protons. Each proton has a positive electrical charge.In many atoms, the nucleus also contains neutrons. A neutron has no electrical charge.Determine whether each statement is true or false to complete the table.TrueFalseMost of an atom's mass is found in protons and neutrons.The nucleus of an atom is found in the atom's center.A neutron has a positive electrical charge.The nucleus of an atom contains at least one proton.Submit

Protons...A..are positively charged and have roughly the same mass as electrons.B..are negatively charged and have roughly the same mass as electrons.C..are positively charged and have roughly the same mass as neutrons.D..are negatively charged and have roughly the same mass as neutrons.
