The term nucleon signifies any particle that is present inside the nucleus of an atom.
We know that the nucleus of any atom contains only two particles which are proton
and neutron whereas electron are present outside the nucleus revolving around it.
Hence, electron is not a nucleon.

The mass of an atomic nucleon is nearly?
two thousand times the mass of an electron
Nucleon is electrically neutral it is called?
A nucleon is one of the particles that make up the nucleus of the atom. Protons and neutrons are nucleons, and the neutronis the electrically neutral nucleon.
What happens to the mass per nucleon in uranium when it is split into smaller nuclei?
The mass of the nucleon is decreased; the difference is released as energy.
Is the protron a nucleon?
Yes, the proton is a nucleon. The term nucleon is used to speak of component particles of the nucleus of an atom. That means either a proton or a neutron. The term nucleon can be applied to either the proton or neutron when speaking of these particles as building blocks of atomic nuclei. Use the link to the related question below for more information.
What is an uncharged particle in the nuecleus of an atom called?
The uncharged nucleon is the neutron. We use the term nucleon to refer to the particles that make up an atomic nucleus. These you know to be protons and neutrons. You also know protons carry a positive charge, and the neutron has no charge. The neutron is that uncharged nucleon.
The mass of an atomic nucleon is nearly?
two thousand times the mass of an electron
Hat can you conclude about a particle labeled 0 -1 e?
It is a beta particle It is negatively charged It has one electron
When does a nucleon have more mass?
A nucleon has more mass when it is not bound to the nucleus of an atom. When the nucleon is bound to other nucleons the binding energy that keeps them together comes from the mass of the nucleon. Therefore the mass of a single nucleon will be smaller in an atom than on it's own.
Nucleon is electrically neutral it is called?
A nucleon is one of the particles that make up the nucleus of the atom. Protons and neutrons are nucleons, and the neutronis the electrically neutral nucleon.

IS POSITRON IS NUCLEON?
No, a positron is not a nucleon.The term nucleon is applied to one of the two constituent particles that make up the nucleus of an atom. Those are the proton and the neutron, which are baryons.Whereas, positrons is a subatomic particle having the same mass as an electron but with an electric charge of +1 (an electron has a charge of −1).It constitutes the antiparticle of an electron. We don't see antimatter particles of any kind hanging around long in our "reality" here. (They "combine" with their antiparticles, and mutual annihilation will occur.)Should we investigate an antimatter universe, the positron will orbit the nucleus of an antimatter atom, just like the electron does in the atoms we look at. Naturally the nucleus of an antimatter atom will be composed of anti-protons and anti-neutrons.

What is an antinucleon?
An antinucleon is an antiparticle of a nucleon.

Who discovered the nucleon?
The nucleon was not "discovered" per se. That's because the term nucleon, which is a derived word coming from nucleus, can be fairly applied to either of the two particles that make up the nucleus of an atom. You already know these particles are the proton and neutron. We don't call either particle a nucleon when that particle is outside the nucleus, but only when they're inside atomic nuclei. Nucleon is actually an umbrella term that isn't "one specific particle or thing" as we know it.
What are Neutrons also called?
A Neutron can also be called a "Nucleon". Protons and Neutrons are both nucleons. But the Nucleon more hevy than Neutron
