What part of the atom accounts for most volume?
the nucleus ^^to whoever wrote this answer.. you are stupid. the nucleus is where most of the MASS is contained. so the correct answer is that the volume is found around the nucleus NOT the nucleus... to the above who said he was stupid, you are stupid.
Most of the volume of an atom is occupied by the space required for what?
An atom is made of protons and neutrons which make up the nucleus and electrons that are around the nucleus. Although almost all the mass of an atom is in the nucleus, most of the space that the atom takes up is occupied by the electrons. In very simple terms, the electrons are in orbits around the nucleus so most of the volume of the atom is empty space within the volume that the electrons occupy. The behaviour of the electrons is often assumed to be orbits but their actual positions are not that simple.As a final note, all atoms contain neutrons with the exception of hydrogen which can exist as one proton and one electron.
What is the smallest part of an element which has all the properties of that element?
The smallest part of an element that retains all its properties is an atom. Each atom is made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons that determine the chemical behavior and physical properties of the element.
What is the smallest part of an element that is still that element?
The smallest part of an element that is still that element is an atom. Atoms are the fundamental building blocks of all matter and are made up of a nucleus containing protons and neutrons, surrounded by electrons.
How much stuff there is in a substance?
The amount of stuff in a substance is typically measured by its mass or volume. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, while volume is a measure of the space it occupies. This can be determined using tools like balances for mass and graduated cylinders for volume.
What is the three dimensional space all matter occupies?
The three dimensional space matter occupies is called it's volume.
What did Rutherford discover about the volume of the nucleus?
Rutherford discovered that the nucleus occupies a very small volume compared to the overall size of the atom. He found that the nucleus is extremely dense and contains nearly all the mass of the atom, while the rest of the atom is mostly empty space.
In a typical animal cell does the cytoplasm occupy almost all of the volume or a little more than half the volume or one quarter or a very small part?
in a typical animal cell, the cytoplasm occupies a little more than half the volume.
Which region of an atom has no mass?
Almost all of the volume of an atom has no mass.
How is most of the volume of an atom occupied?
Most of the volume of the copper ion is in the space between its nucleus and electrons. In fact, this is true for all atoms. Compared to the size of the electron cloud, the nucleus is exceedingly small.
What is the mass and volume of the nucleus?
The nucleus is a very small part of an atom, containing nearly all of its mass in a tiny volume. The mass of a nucleus depends on the number of protons and neutrons it contains, while its volume is estimated to be about 1 femtometer cubed, which is extremely small.
Does volume have mass And take up space?
Yes, volume represents the amount of space occupied by an object. And since all objects have mass, anything that has volume occupies space and also has mass.
The reason a granite block is mostly empty space is that the atoms in the granite are?
Yes, this is essentially true. Well over 99.9% of the mass of any atom is in the nucleus. The electrons in their orbitals around that nucleus actually determine the spacial volume that the atom occupies. And on an atomic scale, the distance from the nucleus to the outer boundaries of the electron cloud is enormous. The atom is mostly empty space, and, therefore, anything made up of atoms is mostly empty space.
What is a molar volume of a gas?
Molar volume of gas is the volume which one mole of the gas occupies. According to Avogradro's law, ALL GAS HAVE THE SAME VOLUME AT THE SAME PRESSURE AND TEMPERATURE. So one mole of all gases occupies 22.4dm3 at s.t.p (273K 760mmHg) - i.e 22.4dm3 is the molar volume of all gases at s.t.p. (you can convert to other conditions of temperature and pressure using Boyle's, Charles' or General gas equations)
Does the nucleus accounts for only a small amount of the total volume of the atom?
Yes. The nucleus accounts for a very small volume, yet it accounts for all the positive charge and nearly all the mass of an atom. An atom is mainly composed of empty space.
How did Democritus define atom?
An atom is an indivisible part of all matter.
Does a liquid take up all the space of the area that it is in?
Yes. This is the liquid's 'volume'. The density of a liquid is another subject: Density= Mass/Volume But this is unrelated to the space the liquid occupies.
