Question

iii FILL IN THE BLANKS WITH SUITABLE CHOICES FROM THE LIST GIVEN:

(Elements Shells, Unstable, nucleons, neutral, Stable: protons, electrons neutrons)

An atom contains the nucleus at the centre. The nucleus contains (positively charged particles) and_______ (particles without any charge) So the nucleus as a whole has a positive charge The_____ (negatively charged particles) move around the nucleus in elliptical imaginary paths called_______ The electrons being negatively charged, are attracted by the positively charged nucleus of That atoms. The electron-nucleus attraction holds the atoms together. The atom as a whole is_____ because the negative charge of electrons is cancelled by the positive charge of the nucleus e electrons. however, are not pulled into the nucleus Protons and neutrons together are called______​

Answer 1

Answer:

An atom contains the nucleus at the centre. The nucleus contains protons and neutrons. So the nucleus as a whole has a positive charge The electrons move around the nucleus in elliptical imaginary paths called Shells (although, I think it should be orbits). The electrons being negatively charged, are attracted by the positively charged nucleus of That atoms. The electron-nucleus attraction holds the atoms together. The atom as a whole is neutral because the negative charge of electrons is cancelled by the positive charge of the nucleus e electrons (seems like copy/paste mistake in the question). however, are not pulled into the nucleus Protons and neutrons together are called nucleons.
