which of the following statements about electrons is correct? they are neutral they are located in the nucleus they have a mass of 1 amu they are negatively - charged and dictate chemical proper
Electrons are negatively - charged sub - atomic particles. They are not neutral, not located in the nucleus (protons and neutrons are in the nucleus), and do not have a mass of 1 amu (protons and neutrons have a mass of approximately 1 amu). Chemical properties of an element are mainly determined by the number and arrangement of electrons.
