 An atom consists of neutrons, protons and 
electrons. 
 Protons and neutrons are present inside the 
nucleus. 
 Nucleus has no charge.
 They revolve in circular 
orbits around the 
nucleus. 
 They are negatively 
charged. 
 Mass = 9.1 x 10-31kg
 Protons are present 
inside the nucleus. 
 They are positively 
charged. 
 Mass = 1.67x10-27kg
 Neutrons are also 
present inside the 
nucleus. 
 They are neutral. 
 Mass = 1.676x10-27kg
 Nucleus is the center 
part of an atom. 
 It consists of both 
protons and neutrons. 
 Nucleus is positively 
charged.
