What else can I help you with?
Is it true that protons in the nucleus attach themselves to another atom?
No. Not under normal conditions. It is true that protons within the nucleus attract each other due to the residual binding energy left over from the binding energy that holds quarks together to form protons and neutrons, but that force does not extend beyond the nucleus before the electromagnetic force, a repulsive force, would override the residual binding energy. In order to bind protons from different nuclei together, more formally, different nuclei together, you need nuclear fusion, and that requires high temperature and high pressure, first to ionize the atom and strip away the electron shells, and second to bring the nuclei close enough together that the residual binding energy can overcome the electromagnetic force.
Is it true that Protons repel other protons in the electromagnetic force?
yes
Is it true that isotopes have variable numbers of electrons?
nope, just neutrons
Is this true atoms lose protons but seldom lose or gain electrons?
i really don't know so can someone answer it that knows
A proton is a subatomic particle carrying a charge equal to but opposite that of an electron true or false?
True. But please note that there are other differences between the proton and the electron as well - for example, the proton has a larger mass, and the proton is made up of smaller particles, while the electron - as far as we know - is not.
What has to be true about the protons and the electrons on an atom that is neutrral?
In any atom,there are protons, neutrons and electrons. As the name would suggest, neutrons carry no charge. Protons carry a positive charge and electrons carry a negative charge. So in an atom that has no charge there has to be an equal number of protons and electrons.
Atoms are composed of protons and electrons?
Atoms are made of different numbers of protons, neutrons, and electrons. Protons (positive charge) and Neutrons (neutral charge) make up the nucleus of the atom. The incredibly small electrons (negative charge) follow orbitals around the nucleus in what's known as an Electron Cloud. An example where this is not true, however, is a hydrogen atom. It has only one proton and one electron. Because it only has one proton, it does not naturally have any neutrons as no buffer is needed between protons.
Which of the following subatomic particles are located in the nucleus of the atom?
The protons and the neutrons are located in the nucleus of an atom.
What statement is true about atoms protons neutrons and electrons?
Several come to mind. They are both found in the nucleus of an atom. Protons have a positive charge, while neutrons have no charge. They are nearly the same size, though neutrons are a bit larger. The sum of the protons and neutrons in an isotope of an element is its mass number.
Is the following true or false An alpha particle has a double charge because it is a helium atom that has lost two electrons?
True, it lost its only two electrons, which makes it consist of 2 protons and 2 neutrons
Which particles in an atom contribute most to mass of the atom?
The particles are protons, neutrons, and the nucleus inside of the atom Nice helping u >_<
What are the parts of the atom besides the neutron?
The nucleus which includes the protons and neutrons, and the electron cloud which contains the electrons. If you want to get into true quantum mechanics, then there are the quarks, the leptons, the bosons, gluons, etc.
Do protons have positive charge neutrons have negative charge and electrons have no charge?
No, protons have positive charge, electrons have negative charge and neutrons have no charge
Is it true that the nucleus is an atomic particle that has no atomic change?
the nucleus is made of protons and neutrons together. the protons have a positive charge and the neutrons have no charge [electrons circle the nucleus and have a negative charge]
Is it true that the size of an atom depends on the number of electrons protons and neutrons present in the atom?
Yes, the size of an atom is primarily determined by the number of electron shells it has, which is influenced by the number of protons and electrons. The protons and neutrons, located in the nucleus, contribute to the mass of the atom but have negligible impact on its size.
Is this problem true or false Most of the mass of an atom is due to its protons an d neutrons?
This is true.
True or False The central core of an atom is called a HUB?
I'm not really sure if it's called a HUB, but I do know that the central core of an atom is called the nucleus, and is made out of protons (with a positive charge) and neutrons (with no charge).
