Nuclei Class 12 Notes

Nucleus is located in the centre of the atom and it is positively charged whereas electrons negatively charged and revolve around the nucleus in the orbits. We will also look at the composition of the structure of a nucleus and its different properties. Know More about these in Nuclei Class 12 Notes.
