Question

What best explains how they should complete the table?

with “Inside the nucleus,” because the particle is a proton
with “Inside the nucleus,” because the particle is a neutron
with “Outside the nucleus,” because the particle is a proton
with “Outside the nucleus,” because the particle is an electron

Answer 1

Depends, you have to give us a table, let me explain how to answer this.

Step-by-step explanation:

“Inside the nucleus,” because the particle is a proton

For this to be true, it has to have a mass (amu) of 1 and it has to have a positive charge

“Inside the nucleus,” because the particle is a neutron

For this to be true, it has to have a mass (amu) of 1 and it has to have a neutral charge

“Outside the nucleus,” because the particle is a proton

This is instantly wrong because protons are located in the nucleus

“Outside the nucleus,” because the particle is an electron

For this to be true, it has to have a mass (amu) of 1/2000 and it has to have a negative charge

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Protons and neutrons are subatomic particles found in the atom of any substance.

These particles collectively determines the mass number of the atom.

• Protons are positively charged particles found in the nucleus of an atom.
• Neutrons do not carry any charges and are also found in the nucleus.
• Electrons are negatively charged particles.

Electrons occupy the extranuclear space of an atom.
