Quarks make up which two subatomic particles?

• protons and neutrons

• protons and electrons

• neutrons and electrons

• protons and ions

Answer explanation

Which subatomic particle is not found in the nucleus of an atom?

• Proton

• Neutron

• Electron

• All of the above are found in the nucleus

Answer explanation

The correct choice is Electron because it is not found in the nucleus of an atom, unlike Protons and Neutrons.

What does the atomic number of an element represent?

• The number of protons in the nucleus

• The number of neutrons in the nucleus

• The total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus

• The total number of protons and electrons in an atom

Answer explanation

The atomic number of an element represents the number of protons in the nucleus, which uniquely identifies the element.
