Question

Why don't protons stick together?

Answer 1

Answer:

The protons must feel a repulsive force from the other neighboring protons. This is where the strong nuclear force comes in. ... If they can't get that close, the strong force is too weak to make them stick together, and other competing forces (usually the electromagnetic force) can influence the particles to move apart.^o^

Answer 2

Answer:

Because, they are of the same charge that is, + and +, + can't go with another +.
