Two atoms that share electrons are held together by what bonds?
Atoms are held together by a few forces, depending on how small you look. Quarks (the sub-atomic particles that make up protons and neutrons) are held together by gluons. Protons and neutrons are held together by the strong nuclear force. The nucleus and electrons are held together by the electromagnetic force.
Electrons that are held most loosely in an atom are called what?
The electrons in the valence band, this can be 1 to 8 electrons (in the s and p orbitals of the outer shell) depending on the element.
What is the difference between bound and free electrons?
Bound electrons are the electrons locked in orbit of the atom which are held in orbit by its attraction to the positive charge of the proton(s) in the nucleus. Electrons have a negative charge. Conversely, the free electrons are electrons that are not orbiting the nucleus of an atom normally in the form of static electricity. Valence electrons are the electrons orbiting the outermost shell of the atom are weakly held by the positive proton charges and can be transferred to or shared with one or more other atoms. Valence electrons are bound until they are freed by some outside force or reaction.
Electrons shared in a molecule are held where to the atoms with the larger nucleus?
Electrons shared in a molecule are held more closely to the atom with the larger nucleus
How many electrons can be held in a third orbit?
8 for the 3rd orbit Actually there are 8 for the second. there are 18 for the third.
How are electrons held within a atom?
electrostatic force between the nucleus and the electrons.
Fast moving electrons travel through the empty space surrounding the nucleus How are electrons held within the atom?
The atom's nucleus and electrons are held together by electromagnetic force. The positive charges of the protons balance the negative charges of the electrons.
Electrons are held in atoms by- A. Electromagnetic B. Friction C. Gravity D. The strong nuclear force?
Electromagnetic Force
The electrons farthest from the nucleus or most loosely held are called?
the electrons on the last shell of an atom are called valency electrons.
What type of force holds subatomic particles together?
electrons are held to nucleus by electromagnetic force.protons and neutrons in nucleus are held together by both strong and weak forces.quarks in protons and neutrons are held together by strong force.
What is atom made from?
A nucleus of Protos and Neutrons held together by the strong force with orbiting electrons around the nucleus.
Are neutrons and electrons held together by strong force?
Protons and electrons are held together in the atom through the electrostatic force of attraction. However, the electrostatic works between any particles, so it should affect protons and protons by making them repel each other and therefore blowing the nucleus of an atom apart. This does not happen because there is a second force at work; the strong nuclear force which (at separations larger than 0.5 femtometres to 3- 4 femtometres) is a attractive force which overcomes the electrostatic force of repulsion and therefore stop the atom being blown apart! hope this helps :)
What attraction are atoms held between?
The strong force hold quarks together in nucleons and holds nucleons together. The electromagnetic force holds the electrons in the atom.

Is it true the valence electrons are those electrons most loosely held by the atom?
yes it is true, they are the outermost electrons and sometimes get "stolen" by other elements creating an ion
What is the number of electrons that can be held in the frist orbit?
Two (2) electrons can be held in the first orbit.
What is the effect of electrons held loosely?
__________ electrons are loosely held to a positive nucleus.
