Chemical (molecular) bonding is done by sharing and exchanging one or more electrons between two atoms. In many cases, electrons are shared by more than two atoms to make larger molecules.

What determines how an atom behaves when it encounters another atom?
The electron configuration of an atom determines how it behaves when it comes into contact with another atom.
What is the heaviest part in a atom?
The most mass of a atom is located in the nucleus, where the protons and the neutrons are located.
If there is no neutron or proton what is the most massive part of an atom?
the anti-proton
Which part of an atom make up most of the size?
The electron cloud that contains the electrons outside the nucleus takes up the most space of the atom.
Which part of the atoms contains most of its volume?
An atom's electrons are distributed through most of its volume.
The center of an antom?
The center of an atom is the nucleus. Inside an atom you will find neutrons, electrons and protons. The nucleus is the most important part of an atom.
Is The neutron the most important part of the atom in forming compounds?
nope, electron. nothing in the nucleus participates in chemistry.
What part of an atom takes up most of its space?
The most space of an atom is vacuum.
What is the most important parts of an atom?
NEUTRONS:]
Most important characteristic of a carbon atom?
The bonds that carbon form are the most important charicteristic.
What best describes the nucleus of an atom?
It’s the most massive part of the atom
Most of the mass of an atom is found in which part of it?
In the nucleus.
What part of the atom is the heaviest has the most mass?
Nucleus
What is the second most massive part of the atom?
oxygen
What part of an atom is important in bonding?
The part of the atom that is used in bonding is the electron. More specifically, valance electrons which are the outer shell of the electron.
What part of an atom is involved the most in bonding?
Electrons are the most important element in atom bonding. Each element has an atomic number based on the number of electrons, and it is the was these different numbers of electrons link up to each other that determines how closely they will bond.
What is the most dense part of an atom?
The nucleus is the most dense part of an atom.
