An atom is like a spherical object with the nucleus in the middle, electrons are "orbiting" around this nucleus. The sub-atomic particles in the atom are electrons with a relative mass of 1/1840 and a relative charge of -1. Neutrons will be another sub-particle in the atom, it has a relative mass of 1 and a relative charge of 0. Next, we have the protons, protons have a relative mass of 1 and a charge of +1. There is also the nucleus which contains protons and neutrons in it.

1. What does an atom looks like? What are the sub-atomic particles inside it.....(talk about electrons, neutrons, protons, electron shells, nucleus....)

ReplyDeleteWow, so hard to comment, well since this is the first blog so I'm gonna post here but you should get a chat box for easier commenting. I like the idea of a different colour for the text it really differentiates it from the question. You could probably do better if you added some pictures of what an atom looks like and well it could be easier to show what an atom is if you used a table. Hope this helped (p.s. I can't comment on the others cause I need the reference) Sign: Xin Kang
