What else can I help you with?
What does electron negativity tell about an atom?
It tells when an atom is in a bonded pair that it holds the shared pair of electrons closer
What part of an atom is used to tell how one atom will bond with another atom?
Electron
What can you tell about an atom that has a high electro negativity?
It is more likely to attract electrons. :)
How is the number of neutrons in an atom worked out?
they work because in every atom there is a neutron, electron and proton. the electron will tell you what the atomic number is and the neutrons and protons will tell you what element it is.
What do quantum numbers tell us about the properties of an electron in an atom?
Quantum numbers provide information about the energy, position, and spin of an electron in an atom. They help us understand the arrangement of electrons in different orbitals and predict their behavior within the atom.
What is the energ of he high energy elecrons used for every time 2 high energy electron move down the electron transport chain?
You tell me
What does the oxidation number tell you about an atom?
The oxidation number of an atom indicates the number of electrons it has gained, lost, or shared to reach a stable configuration. It provides information on an atom's electron distribution and helps predict its reactivity in chemical reactions.
What can you tell about an atom that has high electronegtiviity?
Such atom attracts electrons pair more powerfully as compare to other covalently bounded atom and acquires a partially negative charge.
Is the electron cloud the most massive part of the atom?
No, it is not. Almost all of the mass of an atom is located in the nucleus. The proton, that carrier of the positive electrical charge, is some 1836 times more massive that the negatively charged electron that it attracts to "build" an atom. If we take a look, we'll find that in a simple hydrogen-1 atom, a single proton is in the nucleus and a lone electron makes up the electron cloud. And the nucleus is about 1836 times more massive than the "rest" of the atom. In a helium-4 atom, two protons and two neutrons form the nucleus and a pair of electrons form the electron cloud. In this case, the nucleus is about 7,444 times as massive as the electrons. As we move up the periodic table, the figure gets even more lopsided.
When you say an electron is in its ground state what does that mean?
when something is in the ground^No. That is totally incorrect.Basically, a ground state electron is when the atom/element is not being surged through with heat or electricity. Basically, it's the atom's normal electron configuration. So NA [Sodium]'s ground state would be shown as : 1s2, 2s2, 2p6, 3s1.The opposite is when it's in it's excited state. You can remember tell when an atom is in it's excited state when in the electron configuration, there is a huge jump, like 1s2,2s2,2p5, 3s2. This might have happened due to being exposed to heat and or electricity.In other words, ground state=normal, excited is, well, excited. XD
Does valence tell us to what extent an atom can combine?
Valence refers to the number of electrons an atom can either gain, lose, or share in order to achieve a stable electron configuration. It helps determine how an atom can combine with other atoms to form chemical bonds.
What can you tell about an atom that has high electronegativity?
For metals high electronegativity mean low reactivity; for halogens, C, O, N, S, etc. the meaning is high reactivity.
