What is the process of electron decay and how does it contribute to the stability of an atom?
Electron decay is the process where an electron changes its energy level within an atom. This process contributes to the stability of an atom by helping to balance the positive charge of the nucleus with the negative charge of the electrons, maintaining the overall neutrality of the atom.
Is the process of electron affinity for an atom generally considered to be endothermic or exothermic?
The process of electron affinity for an atom is generally considered to be exothermic.
What is the process of splitting an atom called?
The process of splitting an atom is called nuclear fission. This is when the nucleus of an atom is split into two or more smaller nuclei, releasing a large amount of energy in the process. Nuclear fission is the process that powers nuclear reactors and nuclear weapons.
The process by which an atom becomes charged?
An atom becomes charged when it either gains or loses one or more electrons. If an atom gains electrons, it becomes negatively charged (anion); if it loses electrons, it becomes positively charged (cation). This process is known as ionization.
The process by which an ozone molecule loses one of its oxygen atom?
The process by which an ozone molecule loses one atom is depletion. It is due to CFC's and UV.
When an atom gains electrons or negative charge the process is referred to as?
Ionization. That atom becomes a anion.
What is the process called that converts two hydrogen atoms to a helium atom?
Nuclear fusion is the process in which an atom is combined with another atom and a certain amount of neutrons to form a larger atom. For example, two hydrogens and two neutrons fusing to form a helium.
What is the process by which a molecule gains an H atom?
The process by which a molecule gains an H atom is called hydrogenation. It involves the addition of a hydrogen atom to a molecule typically in the presence of a catalyst, such as a metal like platinum or nickel. This process can alter the physical and chemical properties of the molecule.
What is ionization of an atom?
Ionization of an atom is a simple process of which you convert an atom or molecule into an ion by adding or removing charged particles such as electrons or ions.
Is sublimation an element or an atom?
Neither. Sublimation is a process.
Where does the energy come from in the fission process?
It is stored in the atom.
