Subatomic particles with a positive charge

• neutrons
• atomic mass
• protons
• isotopes

Subatomic particles that are neutral in charge

• Neutrons
• Protons
• Nucleus 
• Electrons

The nucleus of an atom is made of

• electrons and protons
• electrons and neutrons
• protons and neutrons
• empty space

Outside the nucleus of an atom are these

• protons
• neutrons
• quarks
• electrons

The mass of this particle is so small that it is not counted.

• proton
• electron
• neutron
• quark

The term "neutral" means

• having only a little bit of charge
• having a positive charge
• having a negative charge
• having no charge at all
