Essential Question: What are the characteristics and
locations of protons, neutrons and electrons in an atom?
Atom
The tiny particles
that make up the 3
states of matter
They are made up
of protons,
neutrons and
electrons

Essential Question: What are the characteristics and
locations of protons, neutrons and electrons in an atom?
Proton
• Have a positive (+) charge
and are located inside the
nucleus
• Has the same mass as a
neutron

Essential Question: What are the characteristics and
locations of protons, neutrons and electrons in an atom?
Neutron
• Have NO charge and are
located inside the nucleus
• Has the same mass as a
proton

Essential Question: What are the characteristics and
locations of protons, neutrons and electrons in an atom?
Nucleus
• Protons and Neutrons make up the
nucleus
• Most of the mass is located in the
nucleus

Essential Question: What are the characteristics and
locations of protons, neutrons and electrons in an atom?
Electron
Have a negative (-) charge and are
located in orbitals outside the
nucleus
They are much smaller than
protons and neutrons
It would take 1836 electrons to
make up the mass of a
proton/neutron
Now take some time…
• Take 2 minutes to go over your notes and
highlight or underline the main ideas that
answer the essential question, you should not
highlight everything:
Time to use the left hand column
• You will now write your own questions using
the verbs provided.
