Do atoms have strong attraction to one another?

NO


Why sharing electrons causes atoms to bond together?

When electrons are shared between atoms, the nuclei of both atoms experience attraction towards the electrons and vice versa. At a certain distance, the attraction is maximal because the repulsion between the nuclei is small while the attraction of each nuclei to the electrons is strong. Thus, the atoms are held together by their attraction to the shared electrons.


Why does chlorine have such a strong attraction for electrons?

Because it has 7 electrons in its outermost (valency) shell and getting 8 electrons there would close the shell.


Why do elements on the left side of the periodic give away electrons?

The attraction between the atomic nucleus and electrons is less strong.


Do liquid molecules have a strong attraction to one another?

no, because liquid molecules spread from one another


Why caesium can be used in photoelectric cell while lithium cannot be?

as lithium has compactly packed structure with less electrons nucleus shows strong force of attraction in all electrons. hence it is to difficult to remove electrons.


What types of electrons gain electrons?

Atoms in column 7 of the Periodic Table have 7 electrons in their outer shell. Atoms are most stable when they have 8 electrons in their outer shell. So atoms of elements in column 7 have a strong attraction for 1 electron. Flourine being the smallest atom in that column has the strongest attraction for 1 electron.


What are the three main differences between ionic and covalent bonds (attraction atoms electrons)?

- ionic bond: electrostatic attraction, specific for metals+nonmetals compounds, can form lattices.- covalent bond: shared electrons between atoms, specific for nonmetals compounds, not so strong bond.


What do delocalised valence electrons moving between nuclei do?

Delocalized valence electrons moving between nuclei become detached from their parent atom. The metal is held together by the strong forces of attraction between the delocalized electrons and positive nuclei.


What type of element easily gains electrons?

Atoms in column 7 of the periodic table have 7 electrons in their outer shell. Atoms are most stable when they have 8 electrons in their outer shell. So atoms of elements in column 7 have a strong attraction for 1 electron. Flourine being the smallest atom in that column has the strongest attraction for 1 electron.
