About this document

Understanding Atomic Structure and Orbitals by yooga palanisamy is a document available to read on EtoBox.

Atoms are composed of protons, neutrons, and electrons. Protons and neutrons are located in the nucleus, while electrons surround the nucleus. The three main subatomic particles are protons, which have a positive charge of +1; neutrons, which have no charge; and electrons, which have a negative charge of -1. Elements are identified by their atomic number, which is the number of protons. Isotopes are atoms of the same element that differ in their number of neutrons.
