What is the smallest part of an element that is still that element?
The smallest part of an element that still retains its properties is an atom.
A molecule is the smallest complete unit of?
A molecule is the combination of two or more atoms which may exist free in nature. Does this mean that one atom of heliom is NOT a molecule? yes it is not a molecule it is an atom that exists free as a molecule so the term monoatomic molecule is used for noble gase but not only molecule.
Are protons free to drift in metals?
In metals protons are free to move btw atoms throughout the piece of metal.
What is the smallest part or fragment of an atom?
The smallest part or fragment of an atom is the Electon.
Which best describes the nucleus of an atom?
The nucleus of an atom is the densest part of an atom. It contains the protons and neutrons of an atom.
Which charges in an atom are more free to move about?
The electrons of an atom can note freely around an atom.
To make static electricity what is the only part of the atom that moves?
The valence electrons move from atom to atom.
What are free elements?
A free element would be any atom that is not part of a molecule.
What is part of an atom that move around the outer shells?
the valence electrons
How do metallic substances facilitate current flow?
Metallic substances have free electrons, which can move from atom to atom, transferring a charge.
Electrons can move from atom to atom.?
elecron can move from atom to atom... yes
Why are metals good heat conductors?
Some of the outer electrons of metal atoms are free to move from atom to atom. These free electrons transfer heat readily making metals good thermal conductors.
Which subatomic particle is free to move?
Electrons are free to move within an atom and between atoms, making them the subatomic particles that can easily move. Electrons are negatively charged and are responsible for the flow of electric current in conductive materials.
How do electrons move?
Electrons can move from atom to atom and from object to object
What is different between free electron and inner shell electron?
A free electron is able to move as it is in the outer shell of the atom. So free electrons can carry a charge. If an atom has free electrons it is able to conduct electricity. Inner shell electrons cannot carry a charge as they are closer to the nucleus.
Is a molecule part of a atom?
no an atom is a part of a molecule.
How many electrons are found in the valence shell of a sodium atom?
the valence shell is the outermost shell of an atom that has free electrons for taking part in chemical reactions... the valence shell of sodium has one free electron
