The atomic radius to the distance from the nucleus of an atom to?
The atomic radius is the distance from the nucleus of an atom to the outermost orbital of electron.
The force between the nucleus and the outermost electron for the large atom is?
attractive and weaker
If electrons have the most energy in an atom electrons in an electron cloud electrons in the outermost electron shell electrons in the innermost electron shell electrons in the nucleus?
Electrons in the outermost energy shell (valence shell) have the most energy.
Will Lithium Sodium or Potassium react the fastest?
As it has more electron shells between the nucleus and the outermost electron, and as group 1 elements react by losing there outermost electron, the more shielding effect between the nucleus and the electron, the smaller the force of attraction on the electron, so the more readily it will react as less energy is needed to break the bond between the outer electron and the positive nucleus.
In an electron dot diagram the symbol for an element is used to represent?
In a Lews dot structure, the elemental symbol is used to represent the molecule's nucleus. The electrons are then represented by the dots.
The atomic radius to the distance from the nucleus of an atom to?
The atomic radius is the distance from the nucleus of an atom to the outermost orbital of electron.
Where are valance electron located in a atom?
Valence electrons are present in outermost shell. They are at far distance from nucleus.
Why cesium requires little energy to release its one elecron of outermost shell?
The distance between the nucleus an this electron is higher.
Does the chlorine have electrons in its nucleus as in its outermost shell?
No. Electrons are located in the electron cloud surrounding the nucleus.
What does atomic radius means?
Atomic Radius means the size of the atoms, the distance from the atomic nucleus to the outermost electron orbital.
The approximate distance an electron is located from the nucleus is measured by the?
Shell
The force between the nucleus and the outermost electron for the large atom is?
attractive and weaker
In an s orbit the probability of finding an electron a particular distance from the nucleus does not depend on?
It would not depend on the direction with respect to the nucleus. The direction of the electron has no effect on the distance of the electron from the nucleus.
What are the electron farthest from the nucleus called?
Electrons farthest from nucleus are valence electrons. They are present in outermost orbit.
What is The outermost ring of electrons in an atom?
"Electron cloud" is the name given to the electrons which surrounds the atomic nucleus.
Why does the atomic radius change as electrons are added to a shell?
This is because of the fact atomic radius is the distance of the outermost electron to the nucleus thus as more electrons are added the distance increase (which cause atomic radius to change)
If electrons have the most energy in an atom electrons in an electron cloud electrons in the outermost electron shell electrons in the innermost electron shell electrons in the nucleus?
Electrons in the outermost energy shell (valence shell) have the most energy.
