Atoms can join together to form molecules, which in turn form most of the objects around you.<\/p>\n<p>Atoms are composed of particles called protons, electrons and neutrons. Protons carry a positive electrical charge, electrons carry a negative electrical charge and neutrons carry no electrical charge at all. The protons and neutrons cluster together in the central part of the atom, called the nucleus, and the electrons &#8216;orbit&#8217; the nucleus. A particular atom will have the same number of protons and electrons and most atoms have at least as many neutrons as protons.<\/p>\n<p>Protons and neutrons are both composed of other particles called quarks and gluons. Protons contain two &#8216;up&#8217; quarks and one &#8216;down&#8217; quark while neutrons contain one &#8216;up&#8217; quark and two &#8216;down&#8217; quarks.
