volume than nucleus and makes 1 % total mass of atom.
→The electrons are attracted by protons and this attractive force
keeps electrons moving around nucleus.
→The mass of electron is 1836 times lighter than Proton and 1839
times lighter than neutron.
→The elements are arranged in periodic table according to
electronic configuration.
→The electrons are also involved in chemical bond formation.
→Inter-Nuclear Part: It is central part of an atom and
contains Protons and Neutrons.
→Extra-Nuclear Part: It is outside part of nucleus of an
atom and contains Electrons revolving in shells.
→Many particles have been discovered within atom include,
1. Proton 2. Electron 3. Neutron 4. Positron 5. Neutrino

→ Faraday’s experiment indicates the existence of electron. → Chadwick’s equation: 𝟗𝟒𝑩𝒆 + 𝟒𝟐𝑯𝒆 → 𝟏𝟐𝟔𝑪 + 𝟏𝟎𝒏
→ Crook’s tube experiments show the presence of electron and
protons in the atoms.
→ Radioactivity confirms the presence of electron and proton.
→ Chadwick’s experiment shows the presence of neutrons.
→ Spectroscopy reveal the electronic structure of atom.
→ Proton was discovered by Gold Stein 1886.
→ Electron was discovered by J.J Thomson 1897
→Neutron was discovered by James Chadwick 1932.
→ Nucleus was discovered by Rutherford 1911.
→ Electrodes (cathode having negative charge and anode having
positive charge) are metallic plates.

radiations appear behind the cathode which contains positive
