This may appreciate knowing the volume of the atom, and the total volume of atomic particles (protons, neutrons and electrons).
Because the space between atomic particles, atoms and molecules is empty.
Yes, the distance of the electrons from the nucleus is approximately relative to the distance from the center of a football field to the edges. In between is empty space.
Mainly empty space, with a very small and dense nucleus at the center containing the majority of the atom's mass.
True. An atom is mostly empty space, with the electrons moving in a cloud around the nucleus which occupies only a tiny fraction of the total volume.
The electron cloud, which consists of electrons moving around the nucleus in a diffuse region of space, makes up most of the volume of an atom. The nucleus, containing protons and neutrons, is much smaller and denser in comparison.
The mass and volumes of electrons are not significant compared to the volume of an atom.
Empty space.
There may not be any such place, but the farther you get from stars (including ours) the less matter you find. Presumably between galaxies you might find very empty space. Such a volume of space is called a 'vacuum'.
Mainly empty space, with a very small and dense nucleus at the center containing the majority of the atom's mass.
they are both filled with empty space.
Because the space between atomic particles, atoms and molecules is empty.
Most of the atom is empty space (between the electron orbitals and the nucleus itself). If your talking about nucleus vs. electrons then the nucleus is larger in volume and mass
1. Find volume of spheres = 4/3pr3 and multiply by 4 since there are 4 spheres.2. Find volume of units cell = l 3 = (2Ö2r)3.3. Find volume of empty space = vol unit cell minus volume of spheres.4. Divide volume empty space by volume of unit cell.It works out to 25.952
Yes, the distance of the electrons from the nucleus is approximately relative to the distance from the center of a football field to the edges. In between is empty space.
The Gold Foil Experiment, conducted by Ernest Rutherford, proved the existence of the atomic nucleus. The experiment showed that most of the atom's mass and positive charge is concentrated in a small, dense nucleus at the center of the atom. This discovery revolutionized our understanding of atomic structure.
It is the empty space between the nucleus and the electron shells.
the word VOLUME means a piece of a three dimensional space that could be completely empty like the space in an empty box. The word matter in modern physics is a substance that consists of atoms. these two concepts are somehow related. A piece of matter always occupies some space, but a piece or a unit of volume could be completely or is better to say VIRTUALLY empty.
