The nucleus of one atom wants to attract or pull the electrons of a nearby atom towards itself. This attraction is due to the opposite charges of the protons in the nucleus and the electrons.
If the nucleus is missing an atom, it will try to steel an electron from another atom.
If the nucleus is missing an atom, it will try to steel an electron from another atom.
The nucleus of an atom, having a positive charge, exerts an attractive force on the atom's negative electrons.
depends on the atom and how many electrons it needs to complete its outer shell. Elements like Oxygen, Florine i.e. the right side of the periodic tableexcludingthe noble gases, these elements want to take an electron off of the metal groups which are generally on the left side of the Periodic Table, the metal elements for example arePotassium, Magnesium etc. The metals want to lose an electron because they are closer to having an full outer shell if they get rid of 1 or two electrons
Electrons surround the nucleus of an atom in patterns called electron shells.
Nothing. Neither atoms nor their components (e.g. nucleus, electrons) want anything. They have no will or thought of any kind. Anthropomorphizing natural phenomena in this way only interferes with proper understanding of reality.

The atom is composed of a nucleus surrounded by electrons (negative charge)rotating in orbits around the nucleus. The nucleus is composed of protons (positive charge) and neutrons (neutral charge). so the three main subatomic particles are: * Electrons in orbits around the nucleus of the atom * Protons (positively charged particles) in the nucleus * neutrons (neutrally charged particles) in the nucleus. Except for hydrogen that is having no neutrons.
