Mesons are subatomic particles that are made up of a quark and an antiquark bound together. They are responsible for the strong nuclear force that holds protons and neutrons together in the atomic nucleus. Mesons have integer spin and decay rapidly into other particles.
Most stable nuclei have a roughly equal number of protons and neutrons, which helps to balance the forces that hold the nucleus together. This balance of protons and neutrons helps minimize the nucleus's potential energy, making it more stable.
A nucleus of neon is made up of protons and neutrons. Neon typically has 10 protons and varying numbers of neutrons depending on the isotope. These protons and neutrons are held together by the strong nuclear force to form the nucleus of a neon atom.
The primary role of neutrons in the nucleus of an atom is to provide stability by balancing the repulsive forces between positively charged protons. Neutrons help hold the nucleus together through the strong nuclear force without adding additional electrical repulsion.
Meson exchange contributes to the stability of the nucleus by mediating the strong nuclear force, which binds protons and neutrons together. Mesons are exchanged between nucleons, creating an attractive force that overcomes the repulsive electromagnetic force between protons, thus helping to hold the nucleus together. This strong nuclear force is essential for preventing the nucleus from breaking apart due to the electrostatic repulsion between positively charged protons.

In addition to protons and neutrons, the nucleus of an atom also contains particles called electrons, which have a negative charge. Electrons are much smaller than protons and neutrons and are located in orbitals surrounding the nucleus.
well they aren't going to orbit if they have no charge. They hold the protons together. Protons, with the same charge, wouldn't stay together without neutrons.
An atom's nucleus sits at the center and holds the atom's protons and neutrons. The protons and neutrons are themselves made of quarks (which make the protons and neutrons) and gluons (which hold the quarks together).
Protons and neutrons are in nucleus. Electrons revolve around them
The strong nuclear force is stronger than the electromagnetic force between protons, so it overcomes the repulsion between them. This force binds the protons and neutrons together in the nucleus. Additionally, protons have positive charge, but they are surrounded by neutral neutrons which help to balance out the repulsion.

Protons and neutrons are held together in the nucleus of an atom by the strong nuclear force, one of the four fundamental forces in nature. This force overcomes the mutual repulsion between positively charged protons and stabilizes the nucleus. Additionally, the presence of neutrons helps to increase the attractive nuclear force, contributing to the stability of the nucleus.
Protons have a positive charge, while neutrons have no charge (they are neutral).
Yes, the strong force carried by meson exchanges between protons and/or neutrons.
They hold protons or neutrons or something of that nature... - ;)
