A neutral Atom possesses an atomic number of 13 and an atomic mass of 27. Three electrons are lost. From what region of the atom are they lost?

1.Inside the nucleus
2.Outside the atom
3.Both inside and outside the nucleus
4.Outside the nucleus

Respuesta :

they were lost from the nucleus

Answer:

4.Outside the nucleus

Explanation:

The atoms have three subatomic particles: neutrons, protons and electrons.

Electrons in an atom are outside the nucleus, in a region that surrouns the nucleus. If electrons are lost, they are lost from outside the nucleus.

Inside the nucleus are only neutrons and protons, not electrons.
