Solution

Atoms are the building blocks of matter.
Atoms are made up of 3 subatomic particles which are electrons, protons, and neutrons.
Electrons are negatively charged, protons are positively charged and neutrons are neutral in nature.
Every atom consists of a positive center known as the nucleus. Most of the mass and charge of an atom are concentrated at the nucleus of an atom.
Protons and neutrons are present inside the nucleus.
The electrons are revolving around the nucleus in a definite circular path known as orbit or shells.
