In an atom, the neutrons and protons are made up of up quarks and down quarks.
Strange quarks, charms quarks, top quarks, and bottom quarks also exist, but do not play as much of a role in the structure of an atom.

∙ 14y agoThere are thought to be six distinct types of quarks. If you're asking for the actual number of quarks in the universe, it's probably impossible to say.

How many quarks are in molybdenum?
The count of quarks in an atom of molybdenum would depend on the nuclide's mass number (A), or in other words, on which isotope. 3 * A = (quark count) since both neutrons and protons have 3 quarks each. The lowest we know about (Mo-83) would have 249 quarks, the highest (Mo-115) would have 345. Molybdenum-98 is the commonest isotope with (3 * 98) quarks.
What subatomic particles are made of quarks?
Protons and neutrons contain quarks.
Why quarks do not exist in free state?
Actually quarks can exist freely.
What do neutrons consist of?
Neutrons consist of small particles, called "Quarks". Protons also consist of quarks, but what quarks is made of, is still not discovered.
What is the time line showing the history of quarks?
Its a timeline that shows the History of Quarks?
There are how many different quarks?
There are 3 generations of quarks; each generation having 2 different quarks within it. Thus, there are 3 X 2 = 6 types of quarks. Their names are up, down, strange, charm, top, and bottom. Each of these 6 quarks has a unique antiparticle associated with it. Thus, there are in fact 6 X 2 = 12 different quarks in total.
How many quarks does aluminum have?
there are 7 quarks in aluminum
Does research on particles such as quarks have an important effect on the principles of chemistry?
It is very difficult to have now a correct opinion. But, for an answer, probably no.
What is the lifespan of a quark?
Different quarks last different amounts of time, but all of the six quarks can only last on their own for small fractions of a second.
How many quarts do a proton have?
3 they have 2 up quarks and 1 down quarks (yes its quarks not quarts) :D
What polarity are the different quarks?
The Top, Charm, and Up quarks have +2/3 of an 'elementary' charge. The Bottom, Strange, and Down quarks have -1/3 of an 'elementary' charge.
How many types of quarks are there and what is the name of one of them?
There are 6 different types of quarks, named in pairs:Top, BottomStrange, CharmUp, Down0123qwerty0123But don't forget that all particles, besides force particles ( gravity-graviton, electromagnetism-photon, weak force-low guage boson, strong force-gluon ), have antimatter counterparts.Anti-top, Anti-bottomAnti-strange, Anti-charmAnti-up, Anti-down
