Does the nucleus of an atom consist of neutrons and electrons?
No,the nucleus of an atom consists of protons and neutrons. The electrons orbit around the nucleus forming an electron cloud. The only exception to this is the atom of hydrogen(H) which nucleus consists only of one proton.
What type of bonding does h and f have?
The bonding between H and F are that each hydrogen atom has only one electron. One atom attracts the electron causing the two to overlap.
What is the only subatomic particle that can jump from atom to atom?
An electron can jump from atom to atom.
How many first level electron did each atom contains?
The first electron energy level can only hold 2 electrons. Hydrogen only has 1 first energy level electron as it only contains one proton and one electron total.
What consist of only one type of atom?
an element consists of only 1 type of atom !
When a potassium atom reacts with a bromine atom the potassium atom will?
lose only one electron
When an atom loses one or more electrons what does the atom become?
Loosing electrons means little when compared to the original atom... The only difference with the atom at its new state is that it is now considered a cation. Cations are (put simply) atoms that have lost a single electron (valence or not), and now consist a positive charge rather than neutral.
What happens when two electrons get closer together?
The electron in each atom starts to notice the proton of the other atom. As a result, it becomes attracted not only to its own proton, but to the proton of the other atom as well. ... And electrons tend to repel each other.
How many electrons does each hydrogen atom have in its valence shell?
Hydrogen doesn't really have a valence shell. It has one electron only.
Is an atom made up of only one atom?
atom is made up of subatomic particles:proton,electron and neutron.
In methane the total number of groups of electrons on the central atom is?
There are four pairs of electrons around the central carbon atom of methane. These pairs each consist of one electron originally from the carbon and one from the hydrogen atom bonded to it.Though the question only considers the outer shell of electrons, as that is the only shell used for bonding, it may be useful to remember that in methane the carbon atom has a total of ten electrons around it, due to its two inner electrons.
How many atoms are in the last shell of the hydrogen atom?
The hydrogen atom (1H) has only 1 proton and 1 electron (you probably think at this electron).
