It's actually called 'electronegativity'. It attracts electrons.
Electron holding power refers to the attraction between a negatively charged electron and the positively charged nucleus in an atom. This force holds the electron in orbit around the nucleus, maintaining the stability of the atom. Electrons are held in specific energy levels, known as electron shells, based on this holding power.

Electronegativity
A neutral atom of calcium has 20 electrons. Electrons fill the electron shells in order of increasing energy levels, with the first shell holding a maximum of 2 electrons, the second shell holding a maximum of 8 electrons, the third shell holding a maximum of 18 electrons, and the fourth shell holding the remaining 2 electrons. Thus, three electron shells (the first three shells) would be completely filled by a neutral atom of calcium.
Ionization energy is the energy required to remove an electron from an atom. It is an endothermic process because energy is needed to overcome the electrostatic force holding the electron to the nucleus.
The size of an atom is determined by the number of protons and electrons it has. Sodium has fewer electrons and protons than chlorine, making it smaller in size. Additionally, the outer electron shell of sodium is further away from the nucleus compared to chlorine, further contributing to the size difference.
The charge of neutron is 0, as it is neutral. The charge of proton is 1.6x 10 to the power -19 coulomb. The charge of electron is -1.6x10 to the power -19 coulomb.
An increase in atomic radius would lead to a decrease in the effective nuclear charge felt by the outer electron. This weaker attractive force would make it easier for the outer electron to overcome the attractive forces holding it in the atom, resulting in easier electron loss.
Quantum numbers are values that describe the unique properties of an electron in an atom, such as its energy level, orbital shape, orientation, and spin. These numbers are used to determine the arrangement of electrons within an atom and are critical for understanding the behavior of electrons in relation to the nucleus.
Power Holding Company of Nigeria was created in 1972.
The power source of an electron microscope is an electron gun located in the microscope that fires electrons through a series of lens and into a non-living object.
NADH and FADH2 are electron carriers. They are said to have reducing power because they donate electrons to components of the electron transport chain.
The resolving power of an electron microscope is limited by the wavelength of the electrons being used, which is much smaller than that of visible light. Additionally, aberrations in the electron optics and sample distortion can also limit the resolution.

The net charge of a system with electrons and neutrons is zero because electrons have a negative charge (-1) and neutrons have no net charge (neutral). This means that the negative charges of the electrons cancel out the positive charges of the neutrons, resulting in a neutral overall charge for the system.
Electron microscopes have the greatest magnifying power among microscopes, capable of magnifying up to 1,000,000x. This is because they use electron beams instead of light, allowing for much higher resolution and magnification.
Yes, an electron microscope cannot operate without a source of electrical power.
No - because the power generated by the electron beam destroys any living tissue.
No. While the proton has the opposite charge of the electron, the proton will not flow from atom to atom like the electron does because the strong atomic force holding the proton in the nucleus is much more powerful than the electromagnetic force.
