What are atoms made of?

Question

What are electrons, protons and neutrons made of

What are Quarks made of

What are strings made of?

what kind of energy are strings made of

Answer 1

Quarks.

Quarks are point particles (zero size, finite mass) with a range of specific quantum properties. Three quarks make up each fundamental particle. They constantly exchange a property called colour charge via the strong nuclear force, and in doing so change character - so the three quarks are constantly changing from one type to another. The energy associated with this force accounts for most of the mass of the fundamental particle - more than 90%.

Strings are a hypothetical extension of this model to allow for the effect of gravity, but string behaviour would be entirely unimportant and unobservable in atoms. It is an unproven idea.

So in reality, everything around you is made up of mostly energy with a few point particles.

Answer 2

Quarks.

Energy along a vibrating string of energy.

The string is not made of matter
it is only vibrations of energy in 11 dimensions that appears to us in our 3 dimensional world as matter.

There is just one electron vibration string shared by all the apparent electrons everywhere in 3 Dimensional world.
one "up-quark" string, one "down-quark" string. etc.
Distance and time mean nothing, the vibrations are here and not here, in the past as well as the future.
Tickle an electron here and an electron billions lightyears away wiggles.
It wiggles a million years ago and a million years into our future. Everywhere at everytime in everything.
Everywhere, everytime All at once.

Just Music in Gods head.

and I thought you were asking a serious science question. All the time the question was a sophomoric philosophical debate question requiring sophistry.

Answer 3

Most of the atom is empty space. The rest consists of a positively charged nucleus of protons and neutrons surrounded by a cloud of negatively charged electrons. The nucleus is small and dense compared to the electrons, which are the lightest charged particles in nature. Electrons are attracted to any positive charge by their electric force; in an atom, electric forces bind the electrons to the nucleus.

It is easier to describe an atom mathematically than conceptually, and so physicists have developed several models to explain its various characteristics. In some respects, the electrons in an atom behave like particles orbiting the nucleus. In others, the electrons behave like waves frozen in position around the nucleus. Such wave patterns, called orbitals, describe the distribution of individual electrons. The behaviour of an atom is strongly influenced by these orbital properties, and its chemical properties are determined by orbital groupings known as shells.

Answer 4

Atoms are made up of electrical charged particles like electrons & protons along with otherother atomic particles like neutrons ,photons,neutrinos.
Quarks are one of the two basic constituents of matter in the Standard Model of particle physics. (The others are leptons.) Antiparticles of quarks are called antiquarks. Quarks and antiquarks are the only fundamental particles that interact through all four of the fundamental forces.

Answer 5

Matter and Energy..

Atom could be broken down to sub-atomic particles: Protons, Electrons, and neutrons (there are more like neutrinos, etc. but the 3 are the most commonly known sub-atomic particles)

Answer 6

Atoms are the basic building blocks of ordinary matter. Atoms can join together to form molecules, which in turn form most of the objects around you.

Atoms are composed of particles called protons, electrons and neutrons.

Answer 7

atoms are made up of electrons, protons and sometimes neutrons. Those particles are made up of quarks. To truly know what quarks are made of we'll have to wait for bigger and more powerful particle accelerators.

Answer 8

subatomic particles. Neutrons, protons and electrons. Particles I studied in college such as quarks and others that I have long since forgotten.

Answer 9

Atoms r made of electrons,protons and neutrons.electrons are nagatively charged particles while protons r +vely charged particles.neutrons don't have any charge.thus an atom as a whole is neutral.In an atom electrons revolve around the nucleus consisting of protons and neutrons.so nucleus is +vely charged.

Answer 10

Quarks are, in theory, made of vibrating strings of energy. And that's the smallest thing. The strings are made of energy. Energy is not made of matter. So there's nothing smaller that we can physically detect...yet.
