What is mostly between electrons?
Empty Space.
What does the space surrounding the nucleus of an atom contain?
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 word is most an atom occupied by nearly massless electrons?
empty space
What is the majority of an atom mafe of?
The central nucleus and the almost empty space around it containing electrons
Do atomic nuclei have mostly empty spaces?
Yes, an atom is mostly empty space. That said, the space is also "occupied" space because the electrons swirl around the atom's nucleus in orbit. So although the space is not always in use, it is in use quite frequently.
Who saw the atom as mostly empty space with electrons orbiting around the nucleus?
Rutherford.
True or false Most of an atom is empty space?
True. The protons and neutrons together are dense and comprise most of the mass of the atom. The electrons "circle" around in a "cloud" so there is empty space in between the electrons.

How bohr atomic theory differ for ratherfood atomic theory?
Rutherford said there was a heav, positively charged nucleus with lots of empty space around it in which there were electrons. Bohr went farther and said the electrons were in exact orbits around the nucleus. The electrons could not be just anywhere in that empty space, but only in those exact orbits (orbitals).
Who discovered that electrons move in empty space in an atom?
It was Ernest Rutherford who discovered that atoms are mostly composed of empty space with electrons orbiting a very dense nucleus.
What is found in between electrons and the protons?
The space is empty, total vacuum.
What word is most an atom occupied by nearly massless electrons?
empty space
What moves around empty space is it radiation or convection or conduction?
Empty space implies radiation.
What is the majority of an atom mafe of?
The central nucleus and the almost empty space around it containing electrons
Is almost all the volume of an atom empty space?
Yes, the distance of the electrons from the nucleus is approximately relative to the distance from the center of a football field to the edges. In between is empty space.
What is between electrons and the nucleus?
There is electron charge (and mass) everywhere inside the atom. It is not empty space.There is electronic charge density in the entire volume of an atom. The electrons are said to orbit the nucleus, but that is a short hand description of reality. Reality is described by quantum mechanics and the representation of the location of the electrons is more like a diffuse cloud throughout the atom.Empty space. Nothing.Nothing. Empty space.Nothing between the electrons and the nucleus is nothing99.9% of that space has no matter in it
