They are neutrons, protons and electrons. The neutrons have zero charge, protons have a positive charge and electrons have a negative charge.

What is the differences between the potassium trioxalatomanganateIII and potassium trioxalatoaluminate?

Potassium trioxalatomanganate(III) contains a manganese atom coordinated to three oxalate ligands, while potassium trioxalatoaluminate contains an aluminum atom coordinated to three oxalate ligands. The central metal ion in each complex is different (manganese vs. aluminum), leading to differences in their chemical and physical properties.


When a solid is heated do the particles move?

Particles Are in constant motion, in a solid they vibrate in place. The only reason the solid and liquid states exist are because of intermolecular forces. These forces are what keep particles together without chemical bonds. When a solid is heated, the particles will vibrate more violently and eventually break apart and become liquid or gas once a high enough temperature is reached. This is because the IM forces are not enough to keep the molecules or atoms together once a certain temperature is reached. The atoms move too fast to stay together once the melting point is reached, causing them to flow, but once the boiling point is reached, atoms move so fast that they break away completely and diffuse freely. So yes the particles will move once a certain temperature is reached, but the particles were already moving in thee first place. Only at absolute zero temperature will the particles be still..at this point scientists have not been able to bring anything to absolute zero, probably because to observe something, you must blast energy, or light, at it. They can get extremely close, within a few or fractions of degrees, but never absolute zero.


Who is JJ Thomson and what did he discover about the atom?

1st Experiment: He constructed a Cathode Ray and concluded that the negative charge was inseparable from the rays. 2nd Experiment: He investigated whether or not the rays could be deflected by an electric field. He found that the rays really did bend, which indicated a negative charge. 3rd Experiment: He measured the charge-to-mass ratio of the cathode rays by measuring how much they were deflected by a magnetic field and how much energy they carried. He concluded that cathode rays were indeed made of particles which he called "corpuscles." These were later named electrons. Scientific Contributions: · Thompson created the first model that suggested positive and negative charges known as the "plum pudding" model. Thompson discovered that electrons were subatomic particles
