Does a neutron star contain electrons?
Neutron stars are made almost entirely of neutrons. These neutrons are formed when the star implodes, causing the orbiting electrons of the atoms to interact with the protons in the nucleus. So, it is safe to say that neutron stars contain no electron.
What is the protons of cadmium?
The atomic number of Cadmium is 48, which is to say, it has 48 protons.
An atom containing an equal number of protons and electrons is called a?
neutral : apex :0)
Does a proton have charge?
All we can say is that it is the nature of electrons to carry a negative charge, and for protons to carry a positive charge. The intrinsic cause of these charges is still not yet understood, and awaits the further development of sub-atomic physics models.
What is the size of neutron?
its difficult to talk about size, when talking about such particles. Maybe someone will correct me, but my understanding is that electrons and protons have no size: we say they are point particles. They have a probability wave which shows where they are likely to appear, but I don't think they actually have a volume as, in the same way, a swimming pool or a car would have. We can estimate the size of a nucleus, which consists of neutrons and protons, then divide that volume by the total number of nucleons, which would probably give a value of 10^-15m, but can you actually say that a free floating neutron has a volume? I don't know. Electrons certainly dont. We say they are point charges.
What can you say about the number of protons and electrons on a neutral object?
The numbers of protons and of electrons in a neutral object are the same.
Gold has an atomic number of 79. What does the 79 mean?
The number 79 means that there are 79 protons in the nucleus of an atom of gold. It is the number of protons/electrons in that atom (I say protons/electrons because there are an equal amount of both; i.e. 79 protons 79 electrons)
Does a negative ion have more protons or electrons?
Protons are positively charged. Neutrons are neutrally charged. Electrons are negatively charged. Therefore if an atom is positively charged, it could have any amount of protons or neutrons, one does not need to be more than the other. However we can say it will definitely have more protons than electrons.
What do electrons do to the nucleus?
Electrons orbits around the nucleus, which have neutrons and protons. When there is an imbalance of protons and electrons, it creates a static electricity. What I am trying to say is, nothing really special happens.
What would happen to an object if number of protons and electrons are not equal?
You get charge discrepancies in the atom. So an atom that has more electrons than protons (say a chlorine anion) will have a net, negative charge. An atom that has more protons than electrons will have a net positive charge. A charged particle is more reactive than a neutral one.
How many protons does C12 have?
I would say 6 because C-12 has 6 protons, and the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons. This is a rare exception when the protons, neutrons, and electrons are all the same number-6.
How many protons and electrons does argon have?
i will say 18 neutrons and electrons
What is the atoms charge if there are more protons than electrons in the atom?
positive!(: more protons = positive more electrons = negative say an atom has 2 more protons than electrons, it has a charge of 2+ if it had 3 more electrons than protons, it has a charge of 3- if electrons are taken away, what will the charge be? answer: positive, because there are less electrons same works vice versa. hope i helped! source: 8th grade science class(:
If electrons and protons were people what would they say to one another?
hey. What's up
How many protons electrons neutrons does sulfur have?
16 protons, and if it isn't an ion ("isn't an ion" means that it has no electric charge), it has 16 electrons. on average, sulfur has 16.065 neutrons, but that's averaged out, so it's a weird number. let's just say most sulfur has 16 neutrons.
Does the amount of protons an element has affect chemical bonding?
Yes and no; the number of protons determine the valance number of electrons. The valence level of electrons and how full/empty it is largely determines an elements chemical behavior. I would say that valence electrons are the main determinant, but that is predetermined by protons.
What are the main particles found in the nuclei of all elements?
i would say protons,nuetrons, and electrons
