The electrons are so far outside the nucleus that the protons (which reside in the nucleus) have no opportunity to interact with protons in other atoms. The electrons interact with electrons in other atoms, and that's all that happens. Protons in different atoms never have a chance to get close to each other.

∙ 11y agoElectron in hydrogen atom revolves around the positively charged nucleus in a fixed energy path i.e K shell hence there is no attraction between electron and proton.

∙ 14y agoThey do repel each other via electromagnetic interaction. However, over very tiny distances (within in a nucleus, for example), they attract each other via the residual strong force, which is much stronger than the electromagnetic force but has a very short range (the range of the electromagnetic force is essentially infinite).

∙ 13y agoBecause protons are positively charged, and when it comes to charge, like with magnets, like repels like.

∙ 12y agowe know that no. of protons and no.of electrons are same .if two same forces of attraction are same the objects do not attract and thats why electron not attract with proton.

Is it true that Protons repel other protons in the electromagnetic force?
yes
What force allows two protons to stick together?
The "strong nuclear" force, but this can only happen if there are also neutrons, as the "electromagnetic" force would usually repel two protons.
What dry chemical is used to repel heat?
H2O (water) is used to repel heat.
What is the number of protons in protons?
Non for it is imposable to have protons in a proton.
How many protons do the elements beryllium and helium have?
beryllium has 4 protons. helium has 2 protons
Is it true that Protons repel other protons in the electromagnetic force?
yes
What is the effect of the electrostatic forces inside the nucleus?
protons and neutrons repel each other. The protons in the nucleus repel each other...APEX
Do two protons always repel each other?
yes, they repel since they are both positive.
In an atom what particle does the proton repel?
In the nucleus of an atom, the protons repel each other due to their like charges. However, the strong force keeps protons from flying apart, keeping the protons inside the nucleus.
What does electrostatic force do inside the nucleus?
It causes the protons in the nucleus repel each other.
What is an effect of electrostatic forces inside the nucleus?
protons and neutrons repel each other. The protons in the nucleus repel each other...APEX
Would 2 protons attract or repel each other?
"Opposites attract". So two electrons repel each other.
Protons push away from one another in the nucleus because of the?
"like charges repel".
Why do protons in an atom not separate?
Being positively charged, particles protons should repel each other but they are held together in the nuclei of atoms.
Are there two natural elements that repel each other?
No. However, the protons within the atoms of the element will repel each other because they have equal positive charge.
What fact makes scientists believe that a strong force must be present in order to keep the nucleus of an atom intact?
protons repel other protons.
What force of repulsion between protons in the nucleus of small atoms is?
The protons in the nucleus repel each other by the electromagnetic force, but this is nullified by the strong force.
