yes.

The distance between the Nucleus and an electron cloud varies from atom to atom (element to element).

think of a basket ball as the nucleus.

The 1st electron cloud could be as far as 1-5 km away.

A lot of empty space

Which of these statements is true of atomic nuclei.they are very dense.. they contain electrons..they are mostly empty space..they have a neutral charge?

Atomic nuclei are very dense, as they contain protons and neutrons tightly packed together. They do not contain electrons, as electrons orbit around the nucleus. Although nuclei are very small in comparison to the overall size of an atom, they are not mostly empty space. Nuclei typically have a positive charge due to the presence of protons.


Are gold atoms composed of mostly matter or empty space?

All atoms are mostly empty space, as the electromagnetic repulsion between atomic nuclei keep them from reaching each other (except under extreme pressure, as in the center of stars).


Is atomic nuclei required in a chemical reaction?

No, atomic nuclei is not required for a chemical reaction.


Are there neutrons in a white dwarf?

Yes. A white dwarf is made mostly of electron degenerate matter, which consists of atomic nuclei surrounded by free electrons. The nuclei contain protons and neutrons.


Did Dalton's Atomic Theory state that matter is mostly empty space?

No, Dalton's Atomic Theory did not specifically state that matter is mostly empty space. Instead, it proposed that matter is composed of indivisible particles called atoms, which are the building blocks of all substances.


What the combining of atomic nuclei is?

The combination of two light atomic nuclei to form a heavier nucleus is called fusion.


What form of energy that holds atomic nuclei together called?

The strong force holds atomic nuclei together.


Do atomic nuclei have mostly empty spaces?

Yes, an atom is mostly empty space. That said, the space is also "occupied" space because the electrons swirl around the atom's nucleus in orbit. So although the space is not always in use, it is in use quite frequently.


What type of nuclear reaction releases energy through the combination of atomic nuclei, unlike fission reactions which involve the splitting of atomic nuclei?

The type of nuclear reaction that releases energy through the combination of atomic nuclei is called fusion. This is different from fission reactions, which involve the splitting of atomic nuclei.


Which of these is a particle in atomic nuclei?

Neutron
