The mutual attraction or repulsion between electrons or protons is attributed?

Electrons and protons attract each other, as electrons are negatively charged and protons are positively charges, and opposites attract.


What holds the electrons around the nucleas?

protons hold electrons around the nucleus. Electrons have a negative charge while protons have a positive charge, so since opposite charges attract each other, electrons and protons hold each other in place.


What makes the molecules attract in liquid?

All molecular attractions are electrostatic in nature. Electrons are attracted to protons, and various combinations of electrons and protons can be attracted to other combinations of electrons and protons.


What particles act together to make atoms behave as a solids?

Electrons. Mutually repel elections of other atoms when they get close (as they are then much closer to other electrons than other protons)


Why electrons are attracted to protons?

What are the sub-atomic particles of uranium?

Protons, neutrons and electrons - as in all the other chemical elements.


Why do electron and proton doesnt suck to each other?

Electrons and protons attract each other because electrons have a negative charge and protons have a positive charge


Which other particals have the same mass as protons?

Electrons.


What an atom maybe if it has a different number of protons and electrons?

The number of protons is a specific characteristic of an atom; if the number of protons is other the element is other.


Which Atoms have the same number of protons as what other?

The neutron. Unless it is an isotope, which has a different number of neutrons.


When are Electrons different from the Protons?

Electrons are ABSOLUTELY different from Protons at all times. Electrons are always different than protons. Electrons have a negative charge and travel around the nucleus in orbitals. Electrons are also shared with other atoms to form various ions and molecules Protons have a positive charge and are contained with the nucleus of the atom with the neutrons. They are never shared with other atoms, nor are the neutrons.


Why must the number of protons and atoms in an element be the same?

If you mean protons and electrons then protons are positive and electrons are negative, so the protons and electrons cancel each other out leaving the atom stable. If the numbers were uneven, the atom would be unstable and decay, but that doesn't mean that all unstable atoms have an uneven number of protons and electrons.
