What else can I help you with?
Which scientist was the first to describe an atomic model in which most of the atom is empty space?
Ernest Rutherford was the first scientist to describe an atomic model in which most of the atom is empty space. His model proposed that atoms have a dense positive nucleus surrounded by orbiting electrons in empty space.
How bohr atomic theory differ for ratherfood atomic theory?
Rutherford said there was a heav, positively charged nucleus with lots of empty space around it in which there were electrons. Bohr went farther and said the electrons were in exact orbits around the nucleus. The electrons could not be just anywhere in that empty space, but only in those exact orbits (orbitals).
What did the scientist say about the structure of an atom, stating that it is mostly empty space?
The scientist stated that the structure of an atom is mostly empty space.
What fills the space between the atomic nucleus and the electron cloud?
The space between the atomic nucleus and the electron cloud is primarily filled with empty space. This empty space allows for electrons to move about freely and occupy different energy levels within the electron cloud.
Which scientist described a positively charged core (nucleus) in the middle of a lot of empty space?
Probably you refer to Ernest Rutherford.
Which of these statements is true of atomic nuclei.they are very dense.. they contain electrons..they are mostly empty space..they have a neutral charge?
Atomic nuclei are very dense, as they contain protons and neutrons tightly packed together. They do not contain electrons, as electrons orbit around the nucleus. Although nuclei are very small in comparison to the overall size of an atom, they are not mostly empty space. Nuclei typically have a positive charge due to the presence of protons.
Why can we state that most of the volume of matter such as the tabletop you are writing on is actually empty space?
Most of the volume of matter, like a tabletop, is considered empty space because the atoms that make up matter are mostly empty space themselves. Atoms consist of a small, dense nucleus surrounded by electrons orbiting at a relatively large distance from the nucleus. So while matter may appear solid, it is mostly made up of empty space within the atomic structure.
Do atomic nuclei have mostly empty spaces?
Yes, an atom is mostly empty space. That said, the space is also "occupied" space because the electrons swirl around the atom's nucleus in orbit. So although the space is not always in use, it is in use quite frequently.
What happens for an atomic emission of photons to occur?
Electrons fall from higher energy state to lower energy state in atoms. This can be from outer shells to empty spaces in inner shells or from outside the atom to an empty space in a shell.
Who discovered that electrons move in empty space in an atom?
It was Ernest Rutherford who discovered that atoms are mostly composed of empty space with electrons orbiting a very dense nucleus.
What is mostly between electrons?
In an atom, the space between electrons and the nucleus is mostly filled with empty space. The nucleus contains positively charged protons and neutral neutrons, and the electrons surround the nucleus in different energy levels or electron shells.
What is found in between electrons and the protons?
The space is empty, total vacuum.
