Question

A helium atom consists of two protons, two

electrons, and two neutrons. In the helium atom,
the strong force is a fundamental interaction
between the
(1) electrons, only
(2) electrons and protons
(3) neutrons and electrons
(4) neutrons and protons

Answer 1

(4) neutrons and protons

Step-by-step explanation:

there exist four fundamental interaction force as following

1). Gravitational force

2) Electromagnetic force

3). Weak Nuclear force

4). Strong Nuclear force

So here we have to find the strong force between the subatomic particles which will have strongest force

So here all interaction between charge particles are always electromagnetic force which is always weaker than nuclear force

So here we can say that the strongest force will be force between neutrons and protons as the force between them is always strong nuclear force due to which they resides into a small space known as nucleus

Answer 2

In the helium atom, the strong force is a fundamental interaction between the "(4) neutrons and protons" and it should be noted that this is the case for most atoms.
