Atoms, the smallest particles of matter that retain the properties of the matter, are made of protons, electrons, and neutrons.	ASF
Protons have a positive charge, Electrons have a negative charge that cancels the proton's positive charge.	ASF
Neutrons are particles that are similar to a proton but have a neutral charge.	ASF
There are no differences between positive and negative charges except that particles with the same charge repel each other and particles with opposite charges attract each other.	ASF
If a solitary positive proton and negative electron are placed near each other they will come together to form a hydrogen atom.	ASF
This repulsion and attraction (force between stationary charged particles) is known as the Electrostatic Force and extends theoretically to infinity, but is diluted as the distance between particles increases.	ASF
When an atom has one or more missing electrons it is left with a positive charge, and when an atom has at least one extra electron it has a negative charge.	ASF
Having a positive or a negative charge makes an atom an ion.	ASF
Atoms only gain and lose protons and neutrons through fusion, fission, and radioactive decay.	ASF
Although atoms are made of many particles and objects are made of many atoms, they behave similarly to charged particles in terms of how they repel and attract.	ASF
In an atom the protons and neutrons combine to form a tightly bound nucleus.	ASF
This nucleus is surrounded by a vast cloud of electrons circling it at a distance but held near the protons by electromagnetic attraction (the electrostatic force discussed earlier).	ASF
The cloud exists as a series of overlapping shells / bands in which the inner valence bands are filled with electrons and are tightly bound to the atom.	FASF
The outer conduction bands contain no electrons except those that have accelerated to the conduction bands by gaining energy.	ASFAS
With enough energy an electron will escape an atom (compare with the escape velocity of a space rocket).	SAFASF
When an electron in the conduction band decelerates and falls to another conduction band or the valence band a photon is emitted.	SFAFASF
This is known as the photoelectric effect.	SFASF
