How do the numbers of protons and electorns compare in a normal atom?
The atomic number, proton and electron are all the same amount in an element.
What circumstances is the molecular geometry around a central atom the same as the electron group geometry around the central atom?
The molecular geometry around a central atom is the same as the electron group geometry when there are no lone pairs of electrons on the central atom. In such cases, all electron groups (bonding pairs) are arranged symmetrically around the atom, leading to identical geometries. This typically occurs in molecules with linear, trigonal planar, or tetrahedral arrangements, depending on the number of bonding pairs.
What is energy released on adding an electron to an isolated gas phase atom?
The energy released on adding an electron to an isolated gas phase atom is called electron affinity. It represents the willingness of an atom to accept an additional electron. The process can release energy if the atom's electron affinity is negative, indicating that the atom is stable after gaining an electron.
How many valence electrons does a group 1A metal atom have?
they all have one valence electron.
Is the s orbital of an atom spherical?
Yes, the s orbital of an atom is spherical in shape. It has a uniform electron density distribution around the nucleus, meaning that the probability of finding an electron at a given distance from the nucleus is the same in all directions. This spherical symmetry is characteristic of all s orbitals, regardless of the energy level.

What makes a happy atom?
a happy atom is an atom with all its electron shells completely filled
When a sodium atom reacts with a chlorine atom to form a compound the electron configurations of the ions forming the compound are the same as those of noble gas atoms?
That is correct. A noble gas (or at least all the noble gas elements heavier than helium) has an electron configuration of 8 electrons in its outer shell, and the sodium and chlorine ions in sodium chloride also have 8 electrons in their outer shell, just like a noble gas atom.

Is an electron bigger then an atom?
No. An electron as a particle is small however the probability cloud of an electron can be large- most of the volume of an atom consists of the electron cloud. In relation to this the nucleus, although it contains nearly all of the mass of the atom, is quite small.
What is energy released on adding an electron to an isolated gas phase atom?
The energy released on adding an electron to an isolated gas phase atom is called electron affinity. It represents the willingness of an atom to accept an additional electron. The process can release energy if the atom's electron affinity is negative, indicating that the atom is stable after gaining an electron.
Name given to all parts of the atom?
All the components of an atom (neutron, proton, electron) are called subatomic particles or elementary particles.
Is the Mass of hydrogen atom is about the same as a proton?
Yes, in general. All hydrogen atoms contain one proton, most with no neutrons and all neutral atoms with one electron - and the electron has a much smaller mass. Some hydrogen atoms contain one (or, rarely, two) neutrons and so are heavier. But on average the atom has a mass much the same as a proton.
How many valence electrons does a group 1A metal atom have?
they all have one valence electron.
The volume of an atom is determined by the size of its?
It can be determined by the size of it's electron. The reason for this being is because of the mass that is calculated by the protons to the neutrons of the atoms within the nucleus.
What does a fluoride ion have in common with a neon atom and a sodium ion?
what does an atom have in common with an ion?
Is the s orbital of an atom spherical?
Yes, the s orbital of an atom is spherical in shape. It has a uniform electron density distribution around the nucleus, meaning that the probability of finding an electron at a given distance from the nucleus is the same in all directions. This spherical symmetry is characteristic of all s orbitals, regardless of the energy level.
