atoms are made up of 3 types of particals
- electrons ; tiny and have negative electrical charge.
- protons ; much larger and heavier than electron and have a positive charge.
- neutrons ; large and heavy like protons, but they have no electrical charge.
each atom is made up of these particles. if you add a certain amount of particals together they create certain atoms. such as oxygen, hydrogen, and many many more.
