Composition of the Atomic Nucleus
Explanation:
The atomic nucleus is the dense, central core of an atom, made
up of two types of subatomic particles: protons and neutrons, collectively
known as nucleons. Protons carry a positive electric charge, while neutrons are
electrically neutral. The number of protons (atomic number) defines the
element, while the total number of nucleons (mass number) determines the
isotope. Key
