The Fascinating World of Atomic Structure

Atoms are the building blocks of the universe, the smallest units of matter that retain the identity of a chemical element. 🧪

Each atom consists of a nucleus containing protons and neutrons, surrounded by electrons in orbitals. Explore more about:

Protons: Positively charged particles found in the nucleus.
Neutrons: Neutral particles that add mass and stability to the nucleus.
Electrons: Negatively charged particles orbiting the nucleus in distinct energy levels.

The atom's structure determines the element's chemical characteristics and its interaction with other atoms. Understanding atomic structures can open worlds of discovery in chemistry, physics, and beyond!
