|
Subatomic particles can be classified as acids, bases, and salts
|
|
|
The same types of subatomic particles make up all of the elements
|
|
|
All subatomic particles have either a negative or positive charge
|
|
|
Subatomic particles retain the properties of elements
|
Detailed explanation-1: -A. A neutral atom is achieved when there is an equal number of protons (positively charged) and electrons (negatively charged). Hence, this statement is CORRECT.
Detailed explanation-2: -In other words, all atoms of the same element have the same number of protons. Furthermore, different elements have a different number of protons in their nuclei, so the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom is characteristic of a particular element.
Detailed explanation-3: -There are three subatomic particles: protons, neutrons and electrons. Two of the subatomic particles have electrical charges: protons have a positive charge while electrons have a negative charge. Neutrons, on the other hand, don’t have a charge.
Detailed explanation-4: -Neutrons are located in the nucleus with the protons. Along with protons, they make up almost all of the mass of the atom.
