Explanation / Answer

Protons

Neutrons

Electrons

location

located in the nucleus of an atom

located with protons in the nucleus

move about in the space outside the nucleus like a cloud

Charge

positively charged

no charge, Neutral

negatively charged particles

important factor-labile; i.e, they can be transferred from one atom to the next

Important factor

relatively stable; their number rarely changes

protons and neutrons are bound together through the nuclear force.

Atomic number or the proton numbers(Z)-The total number of protons in the nucleus of an atom gives us the atomic number of that atom.

Mass number(A) -The number of protons and neutrons combined give us the mass number of an atom.

Mass Number (A) = No. of protons + No. of neutrons

Isotopes-are atoms with the same number of protons but that have a different number of neutrons.
