Parts of an Atom An atom consists of a nucleus surrounded by one or more electrons The nucleus is the center region of the atom where the protons and neutrons are located

Majority of the atom is empty space. If nucleus were the size of a pencil eraser, the closest electron would be 100 yards away! Subatomic Particles – Protons – Neutrons – Electrons Nucleus: Tightly packed with Protons & Neutrons Electrons Orbiting speed of light!!

Atomic Mass What is the mass of an atom? SI Unit for mass is the Gram…. Way toooo big to accurately “mass” an atom Came up w/ new unit, an AMU (atomic mass unit) 1 AMU = mass of 1 Proton mass of subatomic particles – Proton = 1 AMU – Neutron = 1 AMU – Electron =.0005 AMU Atomic Mass = the total # of both Protons & Neutrons in the atom ( we don’t worry about the mass of the electrons since they have almost no mass)

Electrical Atomic Charge Electrical charge = 0 All atoms have a neutral charge ( a zero net electrical charge) Protons have a positive (+) electrical charge Neutrons have a neutral (0) electrical charge Electrons have a negative (-) electrical charge Since the net electrical charge is 0 (neutral), if you have 10 Protons (10 “+” charges) then there must be 10 “-” charges (10 electrons) present to balance out the atom.

Summary : An atom is made up of 3 subatomic particles atom Proton Found in the nucleus mass of 1 amu (+) charge Neutron in the nucleus mass of 1 amu neutral (no charge) Electron outside the nucleus Mass is negligible (-) charge
