Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
which statement about the atomic nucleus is correct
A
the nucleus is made of protons and neutrons and has a negative charge
B
the nucleus is made of protons and neutrons and has a positive charge
C
the nucleus is made of electrons and has a positive charge
D
the nucleus is made of electrons and has a negative charge
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In the same way, the positively charged nucleus holds the negatively charged electrons in an atom. Since, the nucleus is positively charged, it is made up of protons and neutrons.

Detailed explanation-2: -The nucleus is a small, dense region at the center of the atom. It consists of positive protons and neutral neutrons, so it has an overall positive charge. The nucleus is just a tiny part of the atom, but it contains virtually all of the atom’s mass.

Detailed explanation-3: -Which statement about the atomic nucleus is correct? The nucleus is made of protons and neutrons and has a positive charge. Atoms have an equal number of protons, which each have a charge of +1, and electrons, which each have a charge of-1.

Detailed explanation-4: -As nucleus is positively charged and electron is negatively charged in an atom, both of them having opposite charges then why they did not attract each other.

Detailed explanation-5: -The nucleus of an atom contains protons and neutrons.
