INFORMATION:
We have the next image
And we must select the correct label
STEP BY STEP EXPLANATION:
To select the correct option, we need to know the next:
Atoms are made up of three types of subatomic particles: protons, neutrons, and electrons. Subatomic particles are basically characterized by their mass and their charge.
- Protons has positive charge
- Neutrons does not have charge or 0
- Electrons has negative charge
Each atom is made up of:
- a nucleus made up of protons and neutrons. It contains almost all of its mass and has a positive charge.
- a crust, made up of electrons with a negative electrical charge and zero mass
Then, analyzing the image we can see that in the center of the atom which represents the nucleus, it has two particles, oranges and greens. Oranges has positive charge and greens do not have charge. That means oranges represent protons and greens neutrons.
Finally, we can see in the crust purples particles which have negative charges and using the info we can say that purples represent electrons.
ANSWER:
proton = orange, neutrons = green, electron = purple
