The branch of science that deals with the identification of the substances of which matter is composed; the investigation of their properties and the ways in which they interact, combine, and change; and the use of these processes to form new substances.

What does the saying Chemistry is in all the electrons mean?

Electrons form the basis for electric charge of atoms. Chemistry, in it's most basic form, is the study of atoms and how they interact to form molecules. The biggest influence by far of this interaction is through the electric charge that the atoms have, and how they attract and repel to form molecules. Hence the saying, chemistry is all in the electrons.


How is reduction in chemistry a problem?

Reduction in chemistry has the meaning of gain of electrons.

What has the same number of electrons as sodium?

There is no ion with the same number of electrons (= 11). Mg+ and Ne- do NOT exsist in normal chemistry. However Na+ and Mg2+ and Ne all have (equally) 10 electrons.


Why do all isotopes of the same element have the same chemical propertires?

"Chemistry" is done by the outer valance shell of electrons, NOT by the nucleus.


What parts of an atom does chemistry?

the valence band electrons.


What is the significant of subatomic particle in chemistry?

These particles are the electrons.


Those electrons that are largely responsible for an atoms chemical behavior are called?

The outermost electrons in an atom that are responsible for all chemistry are known as valence electrons.


What are subatomic particles in chemistry?

since you said chemistry this should be the answer, the one i have in mind.. in an atom there are protons and neutrons in the middle or nucleus, fling around that are electrons. protons, neutrons, and electrons are subatomic particles (makes the atom stable when it's the same number of all three. google it!


Why are symbol formula valency important in chemistry?

It is the valence electrons that are the ones that react and combine in bonds in chemistry


What do these valence electrons do that make them are so important in chemistry?

the number of valence electrons determine the reactivity of the atoms


What part of an atom is to do with chemistry?

Chemistry is mostly concerned with nothing smaller than the protons, neutrons, and electrons when dealing with atoms. Photons do play a part in some disciplines of chemistry, but are mentioned less often. The bonding of atoms into molecules is also a key idea in chemistry, which is concerned with the transfer or sharing of electrons.
