What are found in the space surrounding the nucleus of an atom?
The space around the nucleus of an atom is called the electron cloud. The electron cloud is the space in which the electrons of that atom travel. Compared to the nucleus, the electron cloud is enormous.
What makes an atom?
an atom has two subatomic particles which are neutrons and protons in the nucleus or "center" and electrons surrounding the nucleus in orbitals, "orbit like" regions of space outside the nucleus.
Energy stored in the nucleus of an atom is called?
Energy that is stored in the nucleus of an atom is called Atomic Energy or nuclear energy.
The small central part of an atom?
The "dense" central portion of an atom is called the nucleus. The nucleus of an atom contains neutrons and protons.
What is the atomic structure of an atom?
All atoms consist of two regions. The nucleus is a very small region located near the center of an atom. In every atom the nucleus contains at least one positively charged particle called a proton and usually one or more neutral particles called neutrons. Surrounding the nucleus is a region occupied by negatively charged particles called electrons. This region is very large compared with the size of the nucleus. Protons, neutrons, and electrons are often referred to as subatomic particles.
What are the layers of elecrons surrounding the nucleus of an atom called?
orbit
What is the Layer of electrons outside the nucleus?
the layer of electrons surrounding the nucleus of an atom is called "shells"
What are found in the space surrounding the nucleus of an atom?
The space around the nucleus of an atom is called the electron cloud. The electron cloud is the space in which the electrons of that atom travel. Compared to the nucleus, the electron cloud is enormous.
The central portion of an atom is called the what?
It is th nucleus with electron surrounding it
What is the central area of a atom?
The central part of an atom is called the nucleus. Which contains electrons, protons and neutrons.
The notation specific to the organization or arrangement of elements within orbitals surrounding the nucleus of an atom?
The notation specific to the organization or arrangement of electrons within orbitals surrounding the nucleus of an atom is called electron configuation.
What is the center of an atom called?
The center of an atom is called a nucleus (nucleifor plural).Center of an atom is called the "Nucleus".
What does both an atom and a nucleus contain?
An Atom's nucleus contains protons and neutrons. Surrounding them is the electron cloud.
The space surrounding the nucleus the nucleus of an atom contains?
Electrons
Where are an atom's electrons found?
In the orbitals surrounding the nucleus.
What is the dense center of the atom called?
the denser part of an atom is the nucleus. about 99% of the mass of an atom is concentrated within the atom.
What are the spheres surrounding the nucleus that contains an atom's electrons?
The spheres surrounding the nucleus of an atom are called protons and neutrons, protons hold the electrons in orbit around the nucleus because a proton has a positive charge which attracts the electron which has a negative charge causing electromagnetic force which holds the electron in orbit. The neutron determines the isotope of the atom but has a neutral charge.
