Which statement best describes the types and locations of particles that make up the atom? A. The neutral-charged neutrons and positive-charged protons are found within the nucleus, and the negative-charged electrons orbit outside the nucleus of the atom. B. The neutral-charged neutrons, positive-charged protons, and negative-charged electrons are all found within the nucleus of the atom. C. The negative-charged electrons and positive-charged protons are found within the nucleus, and the neutral-charged neutrons orbit outside the nucleus of the atom. D. The negative-charged neutrons and positive-charged protons are found within the nucleus, and the neutral-charged electrons orbit outside the nucleus of the atom.

A. The neutral-charged neutrons and positive-charged protons are found within the nucleus, and the negative-charged electrons orbit outside the nucleus of the atom.

Explanation:

Before examining the options, it's important to know that the atom is made up of three sub atomic particles which are; Protons, Neutrons and Electrons.

The protons are positively charged and are found in the nucleus of an atom. The Neutron A=are neutral in terms of charge and are also found in the nucleus of an atom. The electrons on the other hand are negatively charged and are found outside the nucleus if an atom, more specifically on the orbitals.

The option that best describes this is; option A.
