Atomic model

tap a particle

Every nucleon is drawn individually — 106 protons and 163 neutrons packed into the nucleus, with 106 electrons on shells outside.

106+1
Protons

Set the element — change this and it becomes a different atom.

1630
Neutrons

Change only these and you get a different isotope of the same element.

106−1
Electrons

Sit outside the nucleus and decide the chemistry, not the element.

Stability

Seaborgium has no measured radioactive isotope in this lab — its nuclei are stable, so decay must be shown as an illustration.
