Expert Solution
Step 1

The atom of an element is made up of sub-atomic particles. The major sub-atomic particles of an atom are electrons, protons, and neutrons. Protons and Neutrons are part of the nucleus of an atom. A nucleus is present at the center of an atom. The electrons, having a negative charge, revolve around the center of an atom.
