Slide 11

Describe Proton

Slide 12

Describe Proton

Protons are positively charged particles found in the atomic nucleus. Protons were discovered by Ernest Rutherford

Experiments done in the late 1960's and early 1970's showed that protons are made from other particles called quarks. Protons are made from two 'up' quarks and one 'down' quark.

Slide 13

Describe Neutron

Slide 14

Describe Neutron

Neutrons are uncharged particles found in the atomic nucleus. Neutrons were discovered by James Chadwick in 1932.

Experiments done in the late 1960's and early 1970's showed that neutrons are made from other particles called quarks. Neutrons are made from one 'up' quark and two 'down' quarks.
