Whats the difference between electrons and protons?
Electrons have a negative charge and protons have a positive charge.
Neutral atoms contain the same number of protons as?
...the number of electrons. This balance between positive protons and negative electrons gives the atom a neutral charge overall.
Do neutrons have less of a charge then protons or electrons?
Neutrons have no electric charge at all; they are electrically neutral. In contrast, protons carry a positive charge, while electrons carry a negative charge. Therefore, neutrons have less charge than both protons and electrons, since their charge is zero.
What is a property of protons and electrons that determines the electromagnetic interaction between them?
The charges on them. Protons are positively charged whereas electrons are negatively charged
What are core electronics?
Inner core electrons are electrons that shield attraction between protons and valence electrons.
Why must a positively charged body have a deficiency of protons?
It doesn't. A positively charged body is deficient in electrons. In an uncharged object there are equal numbers of positively charged protons and negatively charged electrons. Removing electrons will leave more protons than electrons, so the object will be positively charged. Such an object is said to have a deficiency or electrons rather than a surplus of electrons because it is generally easier to remove electrons than it is to add protons. Electrons occupy the outer shells of an atom and have a much lower mass than protons. The protons, by contrast, are bound together in the dense nucleus.
Which type of bond is held together by the attractions between the protons in the nucleus and the shared electrons?
A covalent bond is held together by the attractions between the protons in the nucleus and shared electrons.
Charge of ion with 34 protons and 36 electrons?
The charge of an ion is determined by the difference between the number of protons and electrons. In this case, the ion has 34 protons and 36 electrons, resulting in a net charge of 2- since there are 2 more electrons than protons.
The mutual attraction or repulsion between electrons or protons is attributed?
The mutual attraction or repulsion between electrons or protons is attributed to the electromagnetic force. This force is responsible for interactions between charged particles and is mediated by virtual photons. The strength of this force is determined by the charges of the particles and their separation distance.
What is the number of electrons in a neutral atom equals?
In a neutral atom the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons. The opposite charge between protons and electrons is what allows for a neutral atom.
In a neutral atom what is the relationship between the number of protons and electrons?
They are equal.
How many protons and electrons are in phosphorus?
15 electrons and 15 protons
