A lot of space and very small electrons. There is between 95% and 99% empty space around the nucleus, before you get to the electron shell of the next atom.

What does the nuclease of an atom not contain?
the nucleus does not contain electrons of the atom.
What type of atoms are found in the nucleus of an atom?
The nucleus of an atom CANNOT itself contain atoms.
Does the nucleus of an atom contain particles?
The nucleus has protons and neutrons. Electrons can be found in the shells of an atom.
Fast moving electrons travel through the empty space surrounding the nucleus How are electrons held within the atom?
The atom's nucleus and electrons are held together by electromagnetic force. The positive charges of the protons balance the negative charges of the electrons.
The total number of electrons surrounding the nucleus of an atom of Al is?
14
What are found in the space surrounding the nucleus of an atom?
The space around the nucleus of an atom is called the electron cloud. The electron cloud is the space in which the electrons of that atom travel. Compared to the nucleus, the electron cloud is enormous.
What does both an atom and a nucleus contain?
An Atom's nucleus contains protons and neutrons. Surrounding them is the electron cloud.
The space surrounding the nucleus the nucleus of an atom contains?
Electrons
The space surrounding the nucleus of an atom contains revolving?
the nucleus that turns around in circles
What are tiny and filled in with space - and are the building blocks of all matter?
Atoms. The nucleus of an atom (containing protons and usually neutrons) is small and dense. Electrons can be considered to be a comparatively big cloud surrounding the nucleus of an atom. In this sense, atoms are tiny but mostly contain space.
What makes an atom?
an atom has two subatomic particles which are neutrons and protons in the nucleus or "center" and electrons surrounding the nucleus in orbitals, "orbit like" regions of space outside the nucleus.
What particles are at the center of an atom?
Atoms contain three different sub-atomic particles. Protons, which are particles with a positive charge, and neutrons, particles with a neutral charge are found in the nucleus at the center of the atom. Surrounding the nucleus are electrons, particles that have negative charge.
What does the nuclease of an atom not contain?
the nucleus does not contain electrons of the atom.
What surrounds the core of an atom?
Electrons do surrounding the atom and rotate around the nucleus.
What does nucleus of an atom have?
The nucleus of an atom contain protons and neutrons; protons and neutrons contain quarks and gluons.
What takes up most of the volume of an atom?
An atom is composed of a central nucleus containing a varying number of protons and neutrons, and electrons, which orbit the nucleus in shells. The majority of an atoms volume comes from the space between the central nucleus and the surrounding electrons.
Which particle is in the space surrounding the nucleus?
If you are talking about an atom, the nuclues which is composed of protons and neutrons, is surrounded by electrons. Which make up a cloud around the outside of the nucleus.
