The average nucleic diameter is about 9 fm (9 x 10^-15). The average atomic diameter is about .3 nm (.3 x 10^-9). Finding the volume of the atom and nucleus (as spheres), and dividing the former by the latter yields 3.7 x 10^13.
37,000,000,000,000 (37 trillion) average sized nuclei can fit in the diameter of an average sized atom.
Atomic nuclei (and alpha particales, but these are exactly the same as Helium nuclei)
Forces that may cause the nuclei of an atom to break apart include strong repulsive forces between protons due to their positive charges, insufficient binding energy to hold the nucleus together, and external collisions with high-energy particles. These forces can lead to nuclear fission, where a heavy nucleus splits into smaller nuclei.
That would depend what the atom was to begin with. Adding a proton would increase the atoms atomic number by one, making it an atom of the next element on the periodic table. It would also increase the atomic mass, however the over all atomic mass of the resulting mass would probably not be equal to the most common mass of the new element, making it an isotope of the new element. If it did not also gain an electron, it would now have one more proton than electron, making it a positive ion. Adding a proton to an atom is called nuclear fusion, since it fuses two atomic nuclei together (the original atom and the proton, which is equivalent to the nucleus of a hydrogen atom.)
When an atom is bonded to an identical atom, they share electrons equally, leading to a nonpolar covalent bond. In this case, the atomic radius of the bonded atoms will be the sum of the individual atomic radii.
One on each side (at 180º) of the central atom.
A plasma created from water would include electrons, protons (hydrogen atom nuclei), and oxygen atom nuclei (protons and neutrons). There is no specific name for this substance.
Nuclei Atom
Atom.
The ion will have a charge, so if placed in an electric field it would accelerate while the atom would not react to it.
nuclei
The number of protons in the atomic nuclei.
Yes, it is.
Nuclei is the plural form of nucleus. A nucleus is the center of an atom that holds all the protons and neutrons.
Nuclei are positively charged and contain protons and neutrons bound together by the strong nuclear force. They are very small in size compared to the overall size of an atom. Nuclei determine the element of an atom and contribute to its overall mass.

When determining the size of an atom by measuring the bond radius, the radius of an atom is typically defined as half the distance between the nuclei of two atoms that are bonded together. This is known as the covalent radius.
Fluorine has the atomic number of 9. This means it has 9 protons in the nuclei of its atoms. So, a neutral fluorine atom would also have 9 electrons.
