Question

complete the table below, using the diagram of an atom shown at right.
properties of subatomic particles

		name	symbol	charge (in multiples of e)	approximate mass (amu)	location on diagram
	neutron				select	select
				+1	1.0	a

Explanation:

To complete the table for subatomic particles, we analyze each particle:

1. Neutron

• Charge: Neutrons have no charge, so charge is \( 0 \) (in multiples of \( e \)).
• Approximate Mass (amu): Neutrons have a mass of approximately \( 1.0 \) amu (similar to protons).
• Location: Neutrons are located in the nucleus (region "A" in the atom diagram, as the nucleus is the central dense region).

2. Proton (implied by the \( +1 \) charge column)

• Name: Proton
• Symbol: \( p^+ \) (or \( p \))
• Charge: \( +1 \) (in multiples of \( e \))
• Approximate Mass (amu): \( 1.0 \) amu
• Location: Nucleus (region "A").

3. Electron (implied by the outer regions "B" in the diagram)

• Name: Electron
• Symbol: \( e^- \)
• Charge: \( -1 \) (in multiples of \( e \))
• Approximate Mass (amu): \( \approx 0.0005 \) amu (or \( \approx 0 \) for simplicity in some contexts, but typically noted as very small).
• Location: Electron cloud (regions "B" in the diagram, orbiting the nucleus).

Assuming the table row for neutron (as per the given "neutron" label):

• Charge: \( 0 \)
• Approximate Mass: \( 1.0 \) amu
• Location: \( A \) (nucleus)

For the \( +1 \) charge row (proton):

• Name: Proton
• Symbol: \( p^+ \)
• Approximate Mass: \( 1.0 \) amu
• Location: \( A \)

If we focus on the neutron row (as the table has "neutron" in one row):

• Charge: \( 0 \) (matches the given \( 0 \) in the charge column for another particle, consistent with neutron’s charge).
• Approximate Mass: \( 1.0 \) amu (select \( 1.0 \) from the dropdown).
• Location: \( A \) (select \( A \) from the dropdown).

Final Table (for Neutron Row):

Properties of subatomic particles	name	symbol	charge (in multiples of \( e \))	approximate mass (amu)	location on diagram

(For the \( +1 \) charge row, it would be "proton" with symbol \( p^+ \), charge \( +1 \), mass \( 1.0 \) amu, location \( A \).)

If the question targets the neutron row:

• Charge: \( 0 \)
• Mass: \( 1.0 \) amu
• Location: \( A \)
