Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the basic structure of an atom: Atoms consist of a nucleus containing protons and neutrons, with electrons orbiting around the nucleus.
Identify the properties of a proton: A proton is a subatomic particle found in the nucleus of an atom.
Recognize the charge of a proton: Protons have a positive charge, specifically one positive elementary charge.
Determine the mass of a proton: Protons have a mass of approximately one atomic mass unit (AMU).
Confirm the location of protons: Protons are located in the nucleus of the atom, along with neutrons.
