Exploring Subatomic Particles and Atomic Structure

The video tutorial introduces atomic structure, explaining that all matter is composed of atoms. It discusses the significance of atomic models, focusing on the Bohr model. The video details the three subatomic particles: protons, neutrons, and electrons, describing their charges, locations, and masses. Protons are positively charged and located in the nucleus, neutrons are neutral and also in the nucleus, while electrons are negatively charged and orbit the nucleus in an electron cloud.
