What is an atom
• Picture of lithium atoms in the compound lithium cobalt oxide
• Taken with a transmission electron microscope, which can magnify objects up to 500,0000 times
8
What is an atom
• An atom consists of 3 subatomic particles:
1)Protons2)Neutrons3)Electrons• Atom is a particle which is
electrically neutral• No. of protons = No. of
electrons

Particle Charge Relative Mass Remarks
Proton(p)
+1 1 • Mass is the same as that of a hydrogen atom• Found in the nucleus of the atom
Neutron
(n)
0 1 • Mass is the same as that of a hydrogen atom• Found in the nucleus of the atom
Electron
(e-)
-1 1/1840(negligible)
• One hydrogen atom weighs as much as 1836 electrons• Found around the nucleus.
21
Proton number
• Proton number (atomic number)
The number of protons in an
atom
• For an atom, no. of protons = no. electrons
22
Nucleon number
•Nucleon number (mass number)= no. of protons + no. neutrons
•No. of Neutrons= Nucleon number – Proton
number
