Does a proton make up the most volume of an atom?
No, a proton is a subatomic particle that is found in the nucleus of an atom. The majority of the volume of an atom is made up of the empty space surrounding the nucleus, where the electrons are found.
How does the volume of a nucleus compare to the volume of an atom?
The nucleus of an atom is much smaller than the volume of the entire atom. The nucleus makes up only a tiny fraction of the total volume, with the electrons surrounding the nucleus occupying the majority of the space.
What makes the volume of an atom?
An atom is made up of protons and neutrons in a nucleus surrounded by electrons in orbital shells. The majority of the volume however, is empty space.
What do you think the majority of an atom is made of?
Nearly all the mass is in the nucleus; however, the bulk of an atom's volume is empty space.
How much of an atom volume does the nucleus make up?
The nucleus of an atom only makes up a tiny fraction of the total volume of the atom, typically less than 1%. The majority of an atom’s volume is composed of the electron cloud surrounding the nucleus.
Does an atom have volume?
a atom does have volume
Rutherford concluded from his calculations that the volume of an atom is?
Mainly empty space, with a very small and dense nucleus at the center containing the majority of the atom's mass.
What is most of the atom by volume?
By volume, atoms consist mainly of nothing. Zip, zero, empty space. An atom is much like our solar system, with tiny planets (like electrons) orbiting above a dense core. In between, much like in our solar system, is nothing but empty space.
What contributes to the most of the mass of an atom?
The majority of the volume in an atom is filled by the neutrons and the protons. Although the electrons do have a volume, they occupy significantly less space than the other two subatomic particles
How does the volume of a nucleus to the volume of an atom?
the volume of atom is much greater than that of nucleus
What make up the most of the volume of atom?
Most of the volume of an atom is vacuum.
What make up most of the volume of an atom.?
Most of the volume of an atom is vacuum.
