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.
What is the smallest part of an element which has all the properties of that element?
It is an atom
This part of an atom carries a negative charge?
This is made up of protons and neutrons, this part of the atom contains nearly all the mass. This small particle of an atom that carries a negative charge.
The smallest part of a compound that has all the properties of that substance is?
The smallest part of substance that still retains the properties of that compound is called an atom. All things are made of atoms.
What particles make up most of the mass of an atom.What makes up mot of te volume of an atom?
An electron weighs about 1/1836 of a proton, so as far as an atom is concerned, all the mass is in the nucleus, with the protons and neutrons. But the electrons are rotating in their orbits a long way (in proton size terms) from the nucleus. So most of the volume of an atom is empty space.
What is the three dimensional space all matter occupies?
The three dimensional space matter occupies is called it's volume.
Which phase of the matter has no definite volume and occupies all the space available to it?
Gas.
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.
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.
Which region of an atom has no mass?
Almost all of the volume of an atom has no mass.
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.
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.
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)
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.
Does the nucleus account for almost all the volume of an atom?
No it does not. It accounts for almost all of the mass, not voloume
What do you think the majority of an atom is made of?
Nearly all the mass is in the nucleus; however, the bulk of an atom's volume is empty space.
