The Anatomy of Atoms: Mastering Biology Answers

Protons are p with +1 charge, neutrons are n with 0 charge, and electrons are e with −1 charge. Protons and neutrons are about 1 amu each, while an electron fits the exercise's roughly 1/2000 amu bin.

Question

The Anatomy of AtomsAll matter is made of atoms. Each atom has a nucleus containing positively charged protons and uncharged neutrons; negatively charged electrons occupy the space outside the nucleus.Part AMatch each property to proton, neutron, or electron: symbol p, symbol n, symbol e, +1 charge, 0 charge, and −1 charge.Part BSort proton, neutron, and electron into two mass bins: approximately 1 amu and approximately 1/2000 amu.
