Atoms do not leave electrons!
Electrons leave from the outer orbit of an atom and join the outermost orbit of another atom when there is a chemical reaction involved between the two atoms .
Yes. This process is called radioactive decay. The primary particles emitted are alpha particles, which are helium-4 nuclei, and beta particles, which are electrons.
No, the chlorine atoms do not return the electrons to the sodium atoms.
Electrons are smaller than atoms. There are electrons in atoms, but no atoms in electrons.
yes, some atoms don't actually have electrons.
Atoms share electrons when they form covalent bonds.
One reason I can think of is that photons from the sun will excite the electrons to a high enough state that they leave the atoms, therefore you have ionized atoms and electrons. When it's night and there are no photons, many of the electrons would attract back to the positively charged ions to form uncharged atoms.
The Outermost Electrons are the reactive particles of the atoms.
Oxygen atoms have 6 valence electrons, while sulfur atoms have 6 valence electrons as well.
The two atoms share their electrons.
Your body is made of molecules which are made of atoms. All atoms have electrons.
A covalent bond forms when atoms share electrons.
Carbon atoms have 6 electrons, when non-ionized
