What part of the atom carries a positive charge?
Protons are positive Neutrons are neutral and electrons are negative. the electrons are also in the electron clouds. the protons and neutrons of an atom are in the nucleus.
What are electrons clouds?
The region of negative charge surrounding an atomic nucleus that is associated with an atomic orbital.
Thunder is created by?
Lightning is formed by particles in the clouds, that on the top forms a Positive charge, and on the bottom a Negative charge, these particles continue to form, and when there are to many particles in the clouds, some need to go, and when they go, they come out as Static electricity, which this is called Lightning, and the more particles there are, the more will need to be given, and that means the more lightning there is.
Why do electron clouds repel?
Yes, electron clouds have a negative charge. The electrons make up electron clouds (naturally) and the electron carries a negative electrostatic charge. Since electrons carry a negative electrostatic charge, and, by a fundamental principle of electrostatics like charges repel each other, the electrons don't like each other. That's one of the guiding principles behind electron spin and the structure of electron orbitals in chemistry and biochemistry. The big fat positive charge on the nucleus captures the electrons, but the electrons have to decide amongst themselves how they're gonna get along out in the electron shells. And they do. Is it any wonder that electron shell structures rule most of chemistry?
What particles are located in the electron cloud?
Electrons are the particles found in electron clouds.
Positive and negative charges in cumulonimbus clouds?
During a storm small particles are propelled towards the top of the cloud by strong internal winds. The larger particles fall to the bottom of the cloud. This causes the top of the cloud to develop a strong positive charge, while the bottom of the cloud has a strong negative charge. This induces a positive charge on the ground. This combination is where there is a massive very rapid transfer of electrons, also known as lightning.
What is in the clouds of negatively charged particles that surrounds an atom?
electrons
How does electricity produce lightning?
The clouds are charged with a negative pole which has sub - atomic particles called electrons. And the ground is charged with a positive pole. If you think in the Earth as a giant magnet, the positive charge from the ground starts to attract the negative charged from the clouds. The energy is released in seconds and when it is too strong you can see a lighting in the sky coming down to the ground.
Why do you have lightning?
Lightning is a sudden discharge of electrons from clouds to the ground. When storm clouds gather up lots of electrons, which are negative, the electrons are attracted to the ground's positive charge (opposites attract). The cloud's electrons build up so much that they leap to the ground in one stream, causing visible lightning.
