Can a postively charged body attract another positively charged body?
no
What is a postively charged heavy particle that together with the neutron is found in the nucleus of the atom?
A proton
What is closer to nucleus the stronger the attractive force?
When it is close to the nucleus because the postively charged protons attract the negatively charged electrons
What type of compound is composed of negatively and postively charge atoms?
Ionic compounds are made up of positively charged cations and negatively charged anions.
What happens when clouds rub together?
they loose electrons to the earth, like when you rub hair on a baloon making the clouds postively charged
What is a gas-like mixture with no definite volume or shape that is made up of postively and negatively charged particles?
plasma
What are the main ideas of e Rutherford gold foil experiment?
basically, Rutherford shot postively charged particles at a thin sheet of gold foil. most of the particles passed straight through, but some bounced off at sharp angles. This implies that most of the atom is empy space (which is why most of the particles go straight throught) , but there is a positively charged nucleus at the center (which repels the postively charged particles, so if a particle hits the nucleus, it bounces off )
Can a postively charged body attract another positively charged body?
no
A postively charged particle in an atom is called a?
Proton.
What are the particles called in an atom?
in an atom there are mainly 3 particles namely neutrons which are neutral,protons which are postively charged,electrons which are negatively charged .Neutrons and protons are present inside the nucleuswhereas electrons are present outside it and are free to move.Only electrons take part in chemical reactions.
What distinguish protons-neutrons-electrons?
The characteristics of sub-atomic particles are charge, mass, and spin. Neutrons are the heaviest, electrons are the lightest (of those 3 particle types), elecrons are negatively charged, neutrons are uncharged, and protons are postively charged. Spin is sometimes used to distinguish between some kinds of particles, but not in this case.
What is a postively charged heavy particle that together with the neutron is found in the nucleus of the atom?
A proton
Is carbon postively charged?
No. Any element on its own is neutral, meaning it does not have a charge. Carbon rarely forms ions, and when it does they are negatively charged.
What is closer to nucleus the stronger the attractive force?
When it is close to the nucleus because the postively charged protons attract the negatively charged electrons
What type of compound is composed of negatively and postively charge atoms?
Ionic compounds are made up of positively charged cations and negatively charged anions.
Is it true that when salt formed by postively charged sodium ions and negatively charged chlorine ions the charge on the salt becomes positive?
No. The compound salt is neither.
What is a chargeless mass particle?
A neutron. Together with protons (postively charged) they make up the nucleus of every atom.
