Holds Electron and prontons together?
weak forces. also known as the cuolombic forces
What forces holds ions together?
electrostatic forces-apex
What is the two type of forces that act between atoms?
The forces are the electrostatic forces of attraction between the nucleus of one atom and the electrons of the other atom.
Why are group 1 metals largely ionic?
The group 1 metals are softer because of weaker electrostatic forces. This is thought to be because of the lower amount of valence electrons (electrons in outer shell) but it isn't certain.
What kind of bond does gold have?
Gold has metallic bonds.The electrons of the gold atoms are delocalised to form a sea of electrons. The gold atoms are held together by electrostatic forces of attraction between the negatively charged sea of electrons and the positively charged ions (the nucleus + the electrons that are not delocalised). Gold has high melting and boiling points because a lot of energy is required to overcome this strong electrostatic forces of attraction.
What keeps electrons in the space around a nucleus?
The electrostatic forces between the protons and the electrons keep it in orbit.
Holds Electron and prontons together?
weak forces. also known as the cuolombic forces
What happens during the formation of an ionic compound?
The more electronegative atom obtains electrons from the other and they are bonded by electrostatic forces.
If separation of electrons is increased are the electrostatic and gravitational forces decreased by the same or different factors?
A different factor. If you increase the distance by a factor of 10, the force decreases by a factor of 100, which is 10 squared. The same rule applies both to gravitational and to electrostatic forces.
Where is the energy which is released during a chemical reaction stored to begin with?
In the electrostatic forces between the positive atomic nuclei and the negative atomic electrons.
Why intramolecular forces stronger?
Intramolecuar forces are covalent bonds these involve the sharing of electrons. Intermolecular bonds are electrostatic in origin such as hydrogen bonds and London disprion forces which involve attractions between small charges.
What universal forces hold the atom together?
Electrostatic force of attraction between the positively charged nucleus and the negatively charged electrons revolving around it.
Are electrostatic forces contact forces?
no because their atoms do not touch
What forces holds ions together?
electrostatic forces-apex
What is the two type of forces that act between atoms?
The forces are the electrostatic forces of attraction between the nucleus of one atom and the electrons of the other atom.
What is the difference between ionic and conalent bond?
Ionic bonds are formed by electrostatic forces between ions whereas covalent bonds are formed by sharing of electrons.
What holds the atom together in a covalent bond?
Strong attractions of electrostatic forces between shared electrons and the positively charged nucleusCovalent bond is formed by the mutual sharing of electrons and has covalent force of attraction between them
