Do atoms not break apart into protons and neutrons because the forces between nucleons are stronger than other forces?

Nuclei of atoms do not break apart into protons and neutrons because the strong atomic force between the nucleons is greater than the electromagnetic force that would tend to push protons apart, by about a factor of 100. Also, the electromagnetic force is stronger by many orders of magnitude than the weak atomic force (1013) and gravity (1039), so this puts the strong atomic force at the top of the chain, so to speak.Strictly speaking, the strong atomic force is what holds quarks and other particles together to form protons and neutrons. What holds protons and neutrons together is actually the residual strong force, or what we call the nuclear force. It is weaker than the strong atomic force, but still stronger than electromagnetism. Unlike the strong atomic force, however, its effects diminish with distance, more so than the competing electromagnetic force, which is why larger nuclei, with atomic numbers greater than 82, tend to be unstable.


What is a fission fragment?

A fission fragment is a term we apply to the "pieces" of an atomic nucleus that appear when a heavy radionuclide fissions. We'd better look a bit more closely to see what's up. We know that at the extreme upper end of the periodic table appear some really heavy elements. We also know that these heavy elements, regardless of which isotope, are all unstable. That means they will eventually decay by some method. One of the decay schemes that a few radionuclides undergo is called spontaneous fission. Spontaneous fission (which is covered in a separate question) is the natural "splitting" of an atomic nucleus approximately in two. This fission will result in the appearance of two ligher nuclei (along with one or more neutrons). It is the two atomic nuclei that appear as a result of the fission process that we call fission fragments.

What do you call the several different forms of an element having different atomic mass and number of neutrons?

We call these different "flavors" of an element the isotopes of that element.

How does the sun operate?

The sun is a massive nuclear fusion machine held together by gravity. It makes heavier atomic nuclei out of lighter ones, and we call the process stellar nucleosynthesis. Links to relevant Wikipedia posts can be found below.

Why bond distance is compromise distance between two atoms?

actually the distance between nuclei of two bonded atom is called bond distance. so bond distance is compromise distance if bond is not make then it is not called a bond but only it is atom so then we not call bond distane then it call atomic radi
