I’m struggling... please help (idk what category to put this in lol)

A. Electrons are not present in the nucleus of a silicon atom

B. There are 14 protons in the nucleus of a silicon atom.

E. There are equal members of protons and neutrons in a silicon atom with a mass number of 28.

Explanation:

The nuclei of atoms consist of the protons and neutrons of an atom, so you would not find any electrons in them. They are found outside the nucleus.

The nucleus of a silicon atom has 14 protons, this also represents the atomic number of the element. If you want to base this off on the diagramn, you can look at the legend of protons. It is the triangles. All you need to do is count how many triangles there are inside the circle (the circle represents the nucleus)

Incidently, the number of protons is equal to the number of neutrons here. If you add them up together that would be 28. The mass number of an atom is equal to the sum of protons and neutrons. So 14 + 14 = 28.

But don't think that all atoms of elements work out this way.

probably not the "magnets"in the magnet, so to speak, are thought to be electrons orbiting in shells. vurrent loops two sides to the loop

the only real purpose of sputnik 1 was to beat the us into space. we were getting close to launching a useful satellite, explorer 1 - which launched on january 31, 1958. the ussr had to beat that, so they launched sputnik 1 on october 4, 19
