How do you work out the number of neutrons of an element in the periodic table?
it's the big number
it's the small number
big number - small number
big number + small number
What holds the protons and neutrons together in an atom?
electrostatic force of attraction
covalent bonds
ionic bonds
strong nuclear force
Why do atoms have no overall charge?
Because they have different numbers of protons, neutrons and electrons and they eventually cancel each other out.
Because they have neutrons which are neutral and don't have a charge.
Because they have equal numbers of protons and neutrons and the nucleus is neutral.
Because they have equal number of protons and electrons. Their charges cancel each other out.
