30 Multiple Choice Questions
s0 s0 s0




1. Which subatomic particle has a positive charge and is located in the nucleus?
s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0




a) Electron
s0




b) Neutron
s0




c) Proton
s0




d) Positron
s0




Answer: c) Proton s0 s0




Explanation (4 lines): Protons are positively charged particles found in the atomic
s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0




s0 nucleus. Their number defines the atomic number (Z) of an element. Electrons are
s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0




s0 negative and orbit the nucleus; neutrons are neutral. Positrons are antimatter
s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0




s0 counterparts of electrons. s0 s0




2. The atomic mass number (A) is the sum of:
s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0




a) Protons and electrons
s0 s0 s0




b) Neutrons and electrons
s0 s0 s0




c) Protons and neutrons
s0 s0 s0




d) Protons, neutrons, and electrons
s0 s0 s0 s0




Answer: c) Protons and neutrons
s0 s0 s0 s0




Explanation: Atomic mass number A = number of protons (Z) + number of neutrons
s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0




s0 (N). Electrons have negligible mass and are not counted in A. This distinguishes
s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0




s0 isotopes (same Z, different N). A appears as the superscript in nuclide notation (e.g.,
s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0 s0




s0 ¸µCo).
