Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Positive charges that are bound or stuck to the nucleus of an atom
A
Protons
B
Neutrons
C
Electrons
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Protons are positively charged, while neutrons have no charge. The nucleus is positively charged since it is made up exclusively of protons and neutrons. Electrons spin around a positively charged nucleus, and their negative charges balance out the nucleus’ charge, making the atom stable.

Detailed explanation-2: -Nuclear charge refers to the positive charge on the nucleus.

Detailed explanation-3: -Protons have a positive electrical charge of one (+1) and a mass of 1 atomic mass unit (amu), which is about 1.67×10−27 kilograms.

Detailed explanation-4: -The positively charged particles in an atom are called protons. 4.

Detailed explanation-5: -Nuclei are bound together by the residual strong force (nuclear force). The residual strong force is a minor residuum of the strong interaction which binds quarks together to form protons and neutrons.
