Where is each subatomic particle located in a atom?
electron - electron cloud protons and neutron- nucleus
Which subatomic particles cannot be found in the nucleus?
Electrons are found outside the nucleus in the electron cloud.
Where are electrons located in the nucleus?
The electrons are not in the nucleus, they are around the atom in a "probability cloud" due to heisenburgs uncertinty principle.
Which electrons have the most energy in the atom?
The electrons placed near the nucleus.
Is an electron inside or outside the nucleus?
They are outside the nucleus. They move around the nucleus.
When do electrons have their greatest energy?
In general, electrons further from the nucleus will have more energy than electrons closer to the nucleus.
How are electrons arranged in the atom?
Electrons are arranged around the atomic nucleus forming the electron clouds.
What is found in the energy levels around the nucleus?
electrons occupy sublevels in the order of increasing energy .
Where are protons neutrons and electrons located?
Protons, neutrons and electrons are located in the atom. The protons and neutrons are located in the atomic nucleus; the electrons are around the nucleus, arranged in shells.
How the effects of nuclear charge and the increasing number of core electrons in an atom oppose each other?
The increasing number of core electrons serve to "shield" the outer electrons from the positive charges in the nucleus. Thus, the effective nuclear charge (Zeff) is reduced.
Why do force of attraction between nucleus and electrons decrease in alkali metal as increase in size?
As alkali metals increase in size, the distance of the outermost electrons from the nucleus increases. The attraction between the electrons and the nucleus is electrostatic, and it is a fundamental property of electrostatic attractions that the attraction decreases with increasing distance between the attracting charges. Another way of describing this is that the attractive force is partially "screened" by the inner electrons between the outermost electrons and the nucleus.
Why is barium a better reducing agent than magnesium?
Ba electrons are further from nucleus than Mg electrons so they are more readily lost.
Why cesium has a lower first ionization energy then rubidium?
Caesium has more electron levels than rubidium, because the electrons are further away the attraction between the outer electrons and protons in the nucleus is less. But that's not just the answer. There is also a thing called electron shielding, the negative charges, of the electrons in the energy levels closer to the nucleus, sort of repel the outer electrons so they can't get closer to the nucleus. Since the electrons are further away and have the attraction from the positively charged nucleus reduced, it takes less energy to break the attraction for caesium than rubidium.
Does electrons make up an atom nucleus?
No, the electrons are around the nucleus, not in the nucleus.
Where are the protons neutrons and electron located in the atom?
Protons and neutrons are located within the nucleus. Electrons are revolving around the nucleus.
What particles might be found in shells around a nucleus?
The particles found in the area surrounding the nucleus are called electrons. Electrons are attracted to the protons in the nucleus, but are repelled from other electrons. This is why they can be found orbiting the nucleus.
Why Halogens are not identical?
The atomic weights are different. This means more protons and neutrons in the nucleus and thus more total electrons. This in turn means the outer electrons are further away from the nucleus and not as tightly bound which cahnges the reactivity and electronegativity.
