What determines whether or not an atom will react with other atoms?
depends on the charges, either negative or positive
What determines whether a carbon atom's covalent bonds to other atoms are in a tetrahedral configuration or a planar configuration?
the presence or absence of double bonds between the carbon atom and other atoms
What part of the atom determines how it will react with other atoms?
These particles are the electrons.
How does the number of valence electrons affect an element?
The number of valence electrons affect the type of bond formed by an atom with other atoms as it determines the number and type of atoms it needs to bond with. An atom with one valence electron, for example, will bond with one atom that needs one electron.
What is the number of electrons in outer shell called?
The number of electrons in the outer shell are called Valence electrons and are important in determining how the atom reacts chemically with other atoms.
What determines whether or not an atom reacts with other atoms is it the electrons on the first shell or the second?
valence electrons or the electrons on the outer most shell.
What particle of atoms affects how they react with other elements?
The electrons, or the electron cloud, of an atom affect how it reacts chemically with other atoms and molecules.
Which part of an atom determines how it will react with other atoms?
valence electrons
What is the importance of the electron?
The electron is of great importance. Electrons are the little things that circle atoms. Their configuration around any given atom basically determines how that atom reacts with other atoms to form bonds etc. and which atoms it will reactt with. They're also what makes up electricity (electrons flowing from one point to another).
What properties of a substance determines how that substance will react when combined with other substances?
properties of matter that determine how a substance reacts with other substances
What properties of a substance determines how that substances will react when combined with other substances?
properties of matter that determine how a substance reacts with other substances
What are subatomic particles that determine an atoms behavior or bonding ability?
Electrons. The number of valence or "free" electrons an atom has determines how it can bond with other atoms.
What determines whether or not an atom will react with other atoms?
depends on the charges, either negative or positive
What determines whether a carbon atom's covalent bonds to other atoms are in a tetrahedral configuration or a planar configuration?
the presence or absence of double bonds between the carbon atom and other atoms
Can a neutral atom of hydrogen react chemically quite easily with other atoms?
Yes. Hydrogen reacts very easily with many other elements.
What part of the atom determines how it will react with other atoms?
These particles are the electrons.
When bromine reacts with other elements it gains electrons gaining electrons does not effect the mass of the bromine atoms explain why?
electrons have no mass
