Protons and electrons
Protons and neutrons
Electrons and protons
Neutrons and electrons
What is the charge of any nucleus?
Positive
No charge/neutral
Negative
An atom has 16 protons, 17 neutrons, and 16 electrons. What is the mass of the atom? Hint: add the two most massive subatomic particles together! Periodic table mass will say something different.

-2
+2
What is most of the volume of an atom made up of?
Empty space
Protons
Nucleus
Electron cloud
Which model represents carbon? Hint: use periodic table!
What is the charge of a proton?

Positive
Neutral
Positron
What is the charge of an electron?
Happy
Negative
Positive
Neutral
What is the charge of a neutron?
Guilty

Negative
What makes up the mass of an atom?
Electrons and protons
Protons and neutrons
Neutrons and electrons
electron cloud
Which subatomic particle does not belong in the nucleus?
Proton
Neutron
Electron
How do you calculate neutrons?
Mass - atomic # = neutrons
Mass + atomic # = neutrons
atomic # = protons = electrons
