Spinning or revolving is really just a model, a wy of explaining the phenomenon. It could be that the particles do not in fact spin as a top or ball at all it is just convenient way to explain behavior. As waves in the electromagnetic fields, electrons do not spinn!

∙ 14y agoGod. They don't revolve. That would describe a discrete object. I suppose one could say they cloud around. They surround the nucleus of the whole thing which is the atom.

∙ 15y agothey rotate around the atom because the protons are positively charged and electrons are negatively charged. :D

What happen to carbon atoms valence electrons when it bonds with other atoms?
Atoms gain lose or share valence electrons in a way that makes the atoms more stable
What property of oxygen makes it share electrons unequally with hydrogen atoms?
Oxygen atoms have a greater electronegativity than hydrogen atoms. Electronegativity is the ability of an atom in a molecule to attract electrons to itself.
Atoms like sodium and lithium often lose electrons, which makes them?
The kind of atom that likes to be oxidized.
Why are metals good for electrical conductors?
Metal atoms have a few lightly-bound electrons in their outer shells, and these electrons can be easily moved by a modest electrical potential. This makes them good conductors.
Why are most atoms chemically bonded to other atoms in nature?
The correct answer is: Atoms are often more stable when bonded to other atoms
What happen to carbon atoms valence electrons when it bonds with other atoms?
Atoms gain lose or share valence electrons in a way that makes the atoms more stable
What at the atomic level what makes elements reactive?
their atoms take,give,or share electrons with other atoms :)
Are having eight valence electrons makes atoms very reactive?
No, eight valence electrons completely fills the valence band and makes the atom inert. The most reactive atoms have either one valence electron or seven valence electrons.
What property of oxygen makes it share electrons unequally with hydrogen atoms?
Oxygen atoms have a greater electronegativity than hydrogen atoms. Electronegativity is the ability of an atom in a molecule to attract electrons to itself.
What makes a substance magnetic?
Magnetic objects must contain atoms with unpaired electrons. No unpaired electrons=no magnetism.
How many electrons are in a hydroperoxyl?
There are 16 electrons from the oxygen atoms, one from the hydrogen atom and one from the charge, that makes 18 electrons altogether. Its valency is 1.
What makes group 1 the most reactive?
If I recall correctly, it's because they don't have any electrons in their atoms. Atoms react in order to get a full set of 8 electrons, and the less electrons an atom has, the more likely they are to react.
What makes atoms and elements alike?
both have a nucleus of protons and neutrons and outer orbits of electrons
What makes up matter and are in constant motion?
atoms nd electrons never stop moving
Who is an atom?
An atom is not a person. It makes up a person. It makes up matter. All matter consists of atoms and molecules. Atoms consist of 3 things, protons, neutrons, and electrons.
How may electrons are there in 4.15381023 atoms of Carbon 13?
You can NOT have a fraction of an atom. Your question therefore makes no sense and can not have an answer.
What process makes an emission nebula glow?
Electrons descending toward the ground state in hydrogen atoms
