What part of an atom can move to another object?

When an atom of one element is brought in contact with an atom of another element, electrons get transferred from one element to another. However, if the atoms of same element come together then electrons are shared and not transferred. Exception to this is elements in noble gases.


In which process is an element of matter changed into a completely different element?

It's called transmutation. There are two types of transmutation. Natural transmutation is when an element naturally changes into another element. Artificial transmutation is when an element is forced to change into another element, usually done in a laboratory setting.


What is single displacement?

Single displacement is a oxidation-reduction chemical reaction in which an element or ion moves from one compound to another. There is no single person to whom credit was given for the discovery of single displacement.


What is radioactive disintegration series?

A disintegration series is the pathway of a radioactively unstable element into a stable element. The pathway alters the atomic number of the element and converts the element into another element. A common one is the uranium disintegration series.


What are elements and what make them different from one another?

Elements are pure substances that cannot be broken down by chemical means. The atoms of each element have a number of protons that is unique to each element. The number of protons makes one atom different from another.

What happens in a single-replacement reaction-?

One element takes the place of another in a compound.


What distinguishes one element from?

An element's atomic number, or number of protons, differentiates one element from another.


What happen to particles during a displacement reaction?

In a displacement reaction, one element replaces another element in a compound. The particles rearrange themselves into new molecules or compounds, resulting in the displacement of one element by another. This change can involve the transfer of electrons or bonding between atoms to form new substances.


What distinguishes the atom of one element from the atom another element?

the number of protons

Explain the element of communication?

communication is the process of sharing information from one person to another or from one place to another


How can atomic numbers be used distinguish one element from another?

they can distinguish one element from another becasue by the protons and the nuetrons , they can over come almost anything.


Does plutonium change its element when melted if so to what?

No. Melting does not change one element into another.


What element of chemical reaction happens when one element replaces another element in a compound?

Single-displacement reaction


In a single displacement reaction one element replaces another element in a compound?

Yes, that is correct. In a single displacement reaction, one element will displace another element in a compound if it is more reactive. This occurs when a more reactive element takes the place of a less reactive element in a compound, leading to the formation of a new compound and a different element being displaced.


What kind of decay can change one element to another kind of element?

That would be radioactive decay.


What reaction shows one element taking the place of another in a compound?
