The atom that has 6 protons is carbon, and carbon forms lots of chemical bonds with other atoms.

Which's the statement about atoms?

Atoms are the basic building blocks of matter. They consist of a nucleus containing protons and neutrons, surrounded by electrons in energy levels. Atoms combine to form molecules through chemical bonds.


Which of the following are transferred or shared when two atoms react chemically Protons neutrons electrons photons?

Protons, electrons, and photons can be transferred or shared when two atoms react chemically. Neutrons are typically not involved in chemical reactions as they are located in the nucleus and are not directly involved in forming chemical bonds.


Atoms are rearranged in what?

An atom may change by rearranging the number of neutrons in the nucleus. It will still be the same chemical element, for the number of electrons (and protons) will still be the same. But the number of neutrons, and hence the mass, will change. Usually by radioactive behaviour.


Is a proton an electron or a neutron used to form bonds?

Protons and electrons are used to form chemical bonds between atoms. Neutrons do not participate directly in bond formation since they are neutral particles found in the nucleus of an atom. In a chemical bond, atoms share, gain, or lose electrons to achieve a stable configuration.


Two atoms that share electrons are held together by what bonds?

Atoms are held together by a few forces, depending on how small you look. Quarks (the sub-atomic particles that make up protons and neutrons) are held together by gluons. Protons and neutrons are held together by the strong nuclear force. The nucleus and electrons are held together by the electromagnetic force.

What particles are involved in nuclear reactions but not in chemical reactions?

Neutrons and protons are involved in nuclear reactions because they reside in the nucleus of an atom. In contrast, electrons are involved in chemical reactions as they participate in forming chemical bonds between atoms.


How many protons neutrons and electrons does a heat atom have?

Heat does not have atoms, however heat is caused by atoms. Heat, as wee know it is caused by the interacting and oscillation of atoms and from the breaking of chemical bonds. So to answer your question, heat does not have atoms. Heat is caused by atoms ranging from 1 proton in size to 100+ Protons in size.


What does a atom contain?

All atoms of an element have the same number of protons and electrons (in the neutral state).


What tiny particles make up molecules?

Atoms are the tiny particles that make up molecules. Atoms are composed of protons, neutrons, and electrons. Molecules are formed when atoms combine together through chemical bonds.


Can a proton be shared by two atoms?

No, a proton cannot be shared by two atoms. Protons are found in the nucleus of an atom and are tightly bound to the nucleus. They cannot be shared between atoms in a chemical bond. Chemical bonds involve the sharing or transfer of electrons, not protons.

What subatomic particles are most important in bonds?

The subatomic particles most important in bonds are electrons. Electrons are involved in forming chemical bonds between atoms by being shared, transferred, or attracted to create stable arrangements. Protons and neutrons do not participate directly in bond formation.


Br a molecule or atom?

A molecule is a group of atoms held together by chemical bonds. Atoms are the basic units of matter that consist of a nucleus containing protons and neutrons, surrounded by electrons. Both atoms and molecules are essential building blocks of all substances in the universe.
