3. Nucleus Consists of protons and neutrons
Protons have a positive charge and neutrons are neutral.
Nucleus
Electrons move around the nucleus in shells. The shell is the place where groups of electrons are found. Electrons are negatively charged and 1/2000 the mass of a proton

The atomic number is equal to the number of protons in an atom's nucleus. The atomic number determines which element an atom is.

9. Elements What is an element ? Each element is defined by the number of
The table shows all known elements.
An element is a substance that is made entirely from one type of atom. For example, the element hydrogen is made from atoms containing a single proton and a single electron. If you change the number of protons an atom has, you change the type of element it is.
