How many electrons orbit the nucleus of the potassium atom?
The potassium atom has 19 electrons orbiting its nucleus.
What is responsible for keeping electrons in orbit around the nucleus?
The electrostatic force between the positively charged nucleus and negatively charged electrons is responsible for keeping electrons in orbit around the nucleus. This force acts as a centripetal force, keeping the electrons in their orbit.
Where are the nucleus and the electron located in one atom?
The nucleus is the center of an atom and is made up of protons and neutrons. Electrons freely orbit around the nucleus.
What particles might be found in shells around a nucleus?
The particles found in the area surrounding the nucleus are called electrons. Electrons are attracted to the protons in the nucleus, but are repelled from other electrons. This is why they can be found orbiting the nucleus.
What particles around the atom have negative charge?
only the electrons have a negative charge but they go around the nucleus
What scientist first pictured the atom as having electrons orbit around the nucleus as planets orbit the sun?
Niels Bohr
Why are the electrons held in orbit?
Because they are the outer electrons in an atom and they orbit around the nucleus. But you should ask a scientist this question. NOT put it on ask.com. OR look it up on google.com. it is very likely that you will find something there.
Why don't electrons orbit around the atoms nucleus like planets orbit the sun?
do electrons orbit the nucleus like plantes orbit the sun?
What part of the atom orbits the nucleus?
electrons are negatively charged sub atomic particles which surround the nucleus and never leave their orbit unless and until they are excited by a photon(packet of light)
Is electrons the only thing that orbits around the nucleus of an atom?
Electrons are the only elementary particles that orbit around the nucleus of an atom in distinct energy levels or shells. Other particles such as protons and neutrons are located within the nucleus itself.
What in an atom orbits the nucleus?
Electrons orbit the nucleus, loosely speaking; they do not really orbit the same way that planets orbit the sun, they actually spread out into a cloud that surrounds the nucleus.
Are electons in the nucleus?
No. In a nucleus are protons and neutrons. Electrons orbit the nucleus.
Orbit around a nucleus?
Electrons
Is electrons found inside the nucleus?
They are not in the nucleaus, they orbit around the nucleus.
In an atom orbit the nucleus?
electrons orbit the protons and neutrons
Where electrons are found the nucleus?
They are not in the nucleaus, they orbit around the nucleus.
Do protons orbit the nucleus in an atom?
No, protons do not orbit the nucleus in an atom. They are located within the nucleus along with neutrons. Electrons are the particles that orbit the nucleus in an atom.
