Parts of Atoms II

Sorry about the last post... I accidentally hit "Publish."  Ok, so there is a very LONG video posted, and I completely understand if you don't want to watch it... so here is a quick recap of everything on it. :)

• protons=positive charge, neutrons=neutral charge, and electrons=negative charge
• protons and neutrons are in the nucleus, and electrons orbit the nucleus
• protons are made of quarks ( Up, Up, Down)
• neutrons are make of quarks (Down, Down, Up)
• six types of quarks = Up, Down, Top, Bottom, Charm, Strange 
• electrons are EXTREMELY small
• amu = atomic mass units (electrons= 1/1836, protons and neutrons= 1)
• atomic number is found at the top of the square (number of protons)
• electrons don't have quarks and gluons
• electrons are used for electricity 
• gluons hold quarks together
• model of what an atom really looks like and what it looks like for our purposes

this is a model of what an atom looks like for our purposes.... is this dumbed down or what???????  hahaha

Hope this helps everyone!  Happy Labor Day!
