Label each part of the atom below by matching the correct label

1 answer

Sure! However, since I can't see images or diagrams, I'll provide a general description of the parts of an atom and their common labels. You can match these descriptions to your diagram accordingly.

  1. Nucleus: The central part of the atom, which contains protons and neutrons.

  2. Proton: A positively charged particle found in the nucleus. It determines the atomic number of the element.

  3. Neutron: A neutral particle also found in the nucleus. It does not have a charge and contributes to the atomic mass.

  4. Electron: A negatively charged particle that orbits the nucleus in various energy levels or shells.

  5. Electron Shells (or Energy Levels): Regions around the nucleus where electrons are likely to be found. The first shell can hold up to 2 electrons, the second 8, the third 18, and so forth.

If you provide more context or specific labels from your diagram, I can help you match them more precisely!
