subatomic particles
What is one property protons and neutrons have in common
Same mass,Same size,both in the nucleus
Explain how Bohr and Lewis diagrams are similar.
Both diagrams show the atomic symbol.
A bucket full of water has both mass and volume.What accounts for the mass of the water and the volume of the water.
Mass of the water=protons and neutrons
Volume of water=electrons
How is nuclear charge determined
By the number of protons.
Explain how an atom is composed of charged particles yet can have an overall charge of zero.
An atom has an overall charge of zero because it contains an equal number of positively charged protons and negatively charged electrons resulting in zero
How covalent compound is different from a ionic compound.
A covalent compound forms when nonmetal atoms share electrons, whereas an ionic compound forms when a metal and a nonmetal transfer electrons to create oppositely charged ions
What is one property that is different for protons and neutrons.
Their electric charge.
