How does a compound stay together?
Let us say you have an ionic compound such as table salt, sodium chloride. The sodium atom donates a negatively charged electron to the chlorine atom, so that both atoms can achieve a more stable electron configuration. As a result, the sodium is now a positively charged ion and the chlorine is now a negatively charged ion. Opposite charges attract (as per Coulomb's Law) and so, the oppositely charged ions attract each other, and that's why the compound stays together. Now, if it is a covalent compound such as, for example, water, then the process is different. The oxygen is sharing electrons with two hydrogen atoms. They stay together because they have to be together in order to share electrons. The stability of their electron configuration requires it.
Why does an atom stay together?
opposites attract. the particles are attracted to the positively charged particles.
If you rub a copper rod rather than a polythene rod the copper rod will not stay charged why not?
because copper cannot conduct static energy but polythene can.
What does he nature of atomic structure have to do with electrical charge?
Quite a lot. Atoms consist of charged particles; electrons stay with the nucleus due to these electrical charges. Also, the outer electrons in an atom interact with neighboring atoms.
Why the retention time will decrease if the polarity of mobile phase increase in normal phase HPLC?
because in normal phase HPLC mobile phase is non polar and stationary phase is polar. Most of the compound of interest are polar, if you increase the polarity of mobile phase compound of analyte will stay in mobile phase and will elute faster and retention time will be shorter.
Why ions remain together in a compound?
The ions stay together because of the electrostatic force of attraction between the positively charged cations and the negatively charged anions.
What is a common term for a stay at home vacation?
stay-cation
Why does the compound formed by an ionic bond have a neutral charge even though the ions that bond are charged?
Because if its valence electron has 3 protons on the outer shell, then it'll stay charged even though the ions that bond are charged.
What are the release dates for The First Family - 2012 The First Stay-cation 1-5?
The First Family - 2012 The First Stay-cation 1-5 was released on: USA: 20 October 2012
How long will a material that becomes charged stay charged?
Materials will stay charged as long as the electrons have no way of entering or leaving the materials.

Why does your battery light stay on you put a new battery in it?
That light doesn't mean that your battery needs to be replaced. It means that your battery is not being charged while the car is running. Have your alternator tested.
What are Compound words using word stay?
Examples of compound words that include the word 'stay' are:mainstayoverstaystay over
Do electromagnets stay charged?
Electromagnets do not stay charged. They work by maintaining and creating a field around an object. If the force is broken then the magnet will go weak as well.
Why your battery will not stay charged?
Don't charge it frquently.
Why is it that charged objects wont stay charged for long?
Because there is no insulator attached to it to prevent escape of charge.
What might be the problem with a 1988 Civic Hatchback that is causing the battery to discharge Have already replaced alternator igniter coil main relay and the battery?
You have a short - it's hard to be more exact than that, but if you disconnect the battery and charge it outside of the car and it stays charged, you have a short. If it does not stay charged, you need a new battery.
