What is the purpose of alum in cooking sedimentary rocks?
It removes the negative charges that allow small particles to stay in suspension. This allows the small particles (such as clay) to settle out of the solution.
What is a small particle that moves outside the nucleus and carry a negative charge?
Electrons are small particles that move outside the nucleus of an atom and carry a negative charge. They play a key role in chemical reactions and the behavior of atoms.
What does the wind carry that breaks down rocks?
Small dust particles.
Positive and negative charges in cumulonimbus clouds?
During a storm small particles are propelled towards the top of the cloud by strong internal winds. The larger particles fall to the bottom of the cloud. This causes the top of the cloud to develop a strong positive charge, while the bottom of the cloud has a strong negative charge. This induces a positive charge on the ground. This combination is where there is a massive very rapid transfer of electrons, also known as lightning.
Characteristics for polar and nonpolar molecues?
Polar molecules have separation of charges .ie. they have a partial positive and partial negative charges on molecule as in water . Non polar molecules e.g.methane has no separation of positive and negative charges as difference of electronegativity in C and H is very small .
Which particle spins around the nucleus?
These particles are called electrons, have a negative charge and a very small mass.
What is a small charged particles of matter?
You think probable to electron, with a negative charge.
What are the names changes and location of sub atomic particles?
I believe you are asking for the names, charges, and location of subatomic particles? Subatomic particles are the small particles that make up an atom and include... * Protons: have an electron charge of +1, found in the nucleus of each atom but can also be stable by itself (as in the case of the hydrogen ion) * Electrons: have a negative charge, surround the nucleus of atoms * Neutrons: have no net charge, also found in the nucleus of atoms
Why do most colloids have electrical charges?
One of the most important properties of colloidal solutions is that colloidal particles posses a definite type of electrical charge. In a particular colloidal solution, all the colloidal particles carry the same type of charge, while the dispersion medium has an equal but opposite charge. Thus, the charge on colloidal particles is balanced by that of the dispersion medium and the colloidal solution as a whole is electrically neutral.
What are small pieces of atoms building blocks of atoms?
The small pieces that make up atoms are subatomic particles, primarily protons, neutrons, and electrons. Protons and neutrons reside in the atom's nucleus, while electrons orbit around this nucleus. Protons carry a positive charge, neutrons are neutral, and electrons have a negative charge, together giving atoms their structure and properties. These particles serve as the fundamental building blocks of matter.
Is a river that is deposits only small particles most likely to be fast or slow?
A river that deposits only small particles is most likely to be slow. This is because slower water flow lacks the energy to carry larger sediments, allowing only smaller particles, like silt and clay, to be transported and deposited. In contrast, fast-flowing rivers can carry larger sediments due to their higher energy.
Why do snow skis have a large surface area considering particle theory?
Particle theory concerns very small particles and relates only indirectly to large objects such as snow skis. Although it is perfectly true that both the snow, and the snow skis are composed of large numbers of tiny particles, those particles create electromagnetic fields, and the merged fields act like continuous surfaces. The solidity of solid matter is the result of electrons repelling each other, and nothing more than that. Since electrons are on the outside of atoms, and protons are on the inside, when you get close enough to any atom the negative charge predominates, hence, at a sufficiently close range, atomic matter repels other atomic matter (like charges repel, so negative charges repel other negative charges), hence, solid matter does not interpenetrate other solid matter, which is why it is solid.
