Electro-static attraction between a positively charged nucleus and negatively charged electrons.
The residual strong force. The strong force (or color force) is what holds quarks together to form protons and neutrons. The residual strong force then holds the protons and neutrons together in the nucleus.
In a neutral atom, the charge on the electron cloud is balanced by the carge on the atom's nucleus. The nucleus has a positive charge proportional to the number of protons in it. This attracts and holds the negatively charged electrons in the electron cloud. And in a neutral atom (not an ion), there will be as many electrons in the electron cloud as protons in the nucleus. The charges will balance.
The number of electrons should = the number of protons.
The spheres surrounding the nucleus of an atom are called protons and neutrons, protons hold the electrons in orbit around the nucleus because a proton has a positive charge which attracts the electron which has a negative charge causing electromagnetic force which holds the electron in orbit. The neutron determines the isotope of the atom but has a neutral charge.
protons, because the protons are positive and the electrons are negative so to have a neutral atom the protons and electrons must be balanced
photons carry the electromagnetic force that holds electrons to the nucleus.mesons carry the strong force that holds protons and neutrons together in the nucleus.W & Z bosons carry the weak force that holds protons and neutrons together in the nucleus and mediate beta decay processes.quarks are inside the protons and neutrons.gluons carry the strong force that holds quarks together inside protons and neutrons.
The protons as a collection define the element and the atom. The protons provide the positive force that holds a set number of electrons around the nucleus. In addition, the number of protons determines the element.
its proton and its nucleus will have two protons so its electron and atom
The force between nucleons is called nuclear force.
binding energy The attraction force of the positively charged protons in the nucleus binds (holds secure) the negatively charged electrons near the nucleus.
The electromagnetic force (protons are positive and electrons are negative, so they attract), which is manifested into Coulomb's force of attraction. The reason that electrons will not fall into the nucleus is due to the electron's energy; it is moving fast enough to not collide with the nucleus.
Always the Atomic Number = Number of Protons If electrically neutral, Atomic Number = Number of Electrons = Number of Protons
