Column A
1.
Neutral particle found in the nucleus.:
Neutral particle found in the nucleus.
2.
Positively charged particle in the nucleus of an atom.:
Positively charged particle in the nucleus of an atom.
3.
The subatomic particle with the smallest mass.:
The subatomic particle with the smallest mass.
4.
Negatively charged particle found outside the nucleus.

:
Negatively charged particle found outside the nucleus.

Column B
a.Electron
b.Proton
c.Neutron

Answer 1

Here are the matches for each description in Column A with the correct subatomic particle in Column B:

1. Neutral particle found in the nucleus. - **c. Neutron**
2. Positively charged particle in the nucleus of an atom. - **b. Proton**
3. The subatomic particle with the smallest mass. - **a. Electron**
4. Negatively charged particle found outside the nucleus. - **a. Electron**

So the matches are:
1 - c
2 - b
3 - a
4 - a
