Atomic Theory (Chapter One- The Basics)

So, You have interview in Atomic center for inventory management and since you are so expert in that, but have no understanding of Atomic reactions, you want to learn some basics. Right??? Shyam said to Mujahid in the empty first class compartment of the Mumbai local.
Yes, Mujahid nodded.
So shall i start with nuclear fission?
Mujahid's blank face was not encouraging. Start with something very basic, he said.
How about the periodic table??
Mujahid scratched his beard.....
OK, say we start with the atom, thats where all things start, OK ? Shyam said.
OK!!
See the atom has some positive parts, called protons, some negative parts called electrons and some neutral parts called neutrons. Understood so far ?
That was easy, Mujahid nodded.
Ok, Great! So, when God made the atom, he made the positive and negative in equal number, so the atom is always stable. Not only that, the protons and neutrons are very much central to the atom. The electons that are negative are external to the core and they revolve around the core.
Wow, Interesting! Mujahid Exclaimed. Listen, my station has come, and i need to get down, explain me more tomorrow.
Sure, Shyam said.
By the way, next time, dont blame me for my negative actions Shyam, those are my electrons in action, Mujahid grinned and jumped of the train.
Phew! Has he understood correctly? Shyam wondered, now alone in the train.
