Question

A. Describe the mass, charge, and location of protons, neutrons, and electrons in an atom.

B. How do protons, neutrons, and electrons determine the properties of an atom? (Describe the ROLE of each particle.)

Answer 1

A. mass of proton is slightly lower than the neutron and electrons are too lighter as compared to them.

Answer 2

A.) i.) Mass of Proton is slightly lower than the neutron and electrons are too lighter as compared to them.

ii.) Proton has positive charge, Electron with negative, and neutrons does not have any charge.

iii.) Proton and Neutron resides under the nucleus so known as "Nucleons" whereas electrons revolve around the nucleus.

B.) Protons and Neutrons determine the atomic mass of an atom, and protons and electrons determine the charge upon it. They are the basic properties and many chemical predictions could be made by this information.

Hope this helps!
