there is nothing called as an electric force...an electron revolves around a nucleus due to the electrostatic fore of attracion between the electron and the proton....any object , to undergo a circlar motion has to experience a centripetal force, which in the case of the atom is provided by the electrostatic force.

Actually there is an electric force of attraction between the electron(s) and proton(S)

What attraction holds the electron in orbit around the nucleus of the hydrogen atom?

Magnetic. The nucleus of a hydrogen atom is a proton, which has a positive charge. The electron has a negative charge Opposite charges attract so the negative electron is attracted to the positive nucleus.

What are the charges of protons electron and the nucleus?

Protons have a positive electrical charge.Neutrons are neutral.The atomic nucleus is positive.


The closer a is to the nucleus the stronger the attractive force?

Yes, that's correct. The closer an electron is to the nucleus of an atom, the stronger the attractive force between the nucleus and the electron. This attraction is due to the electrostatic force between the positively charged nucleus and the negatively charged electron.

The force between the nucleus and the outermost electron for the large atom is?

The force between the nucleus and the outermost electron in a large atom is primarily governed by the attraction between the positively charged nucleus and the negatively charged electron. This force is known as the electrostatic force of attraction and is directly proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the nucleus and the electron.


Where is a electron located?

They are located in the electron cloud of an atom. ---------- Electrons (very low mass particles with negative electrical charge) are placed around the nucleus of an atom in electron shells, with different energy levels; because the nucleus contain protons the electrical charge is positive. The electron cloud is a model of quantum mechanics.


The fewer electron shells the shielding of electrons from the nucleus.?

How does electrostatic interaction between the outermost electron and nucleus vary across the periodic table?

Across teh period, the atomic number increases and subsequently the number of protons in the nucleus increases. hence the extent of electrostatic attraction also varies.


What describes the relationship between the nucleus and the electron cloud of an atom nucleus?

There is a relationship of attraction.
