What else can I help you with?
What is the term for the region of very high density in the center of the atom?
that is the nucleus. It is in the middle
Is the very small dense center of an atom?
Nucleus
What is nucleus of an atom?
The nucleus of an atom is the central core where protons and neutrons are located. It is very dense and contains most of the mass of the atom. Electrons orbit around the nucleus in specific energy levels.
What did Rutherford discover about the volume of the nucleus?
Rutherford discovered that the nucleus occupies a very small volume compared to the overall size of the atom. He found that the nucleus is extremely dense and contains nearly all the mass of the atom, while the rest of the atom is mostly empty space.
Where is almost of all of the mass of an atom located?
It is in the nucleus. Electrons are very small
What is the very small dense region of an atom?
The very small dense region of an atom is the nucleus. It contains protons and neutrons, which are tightly packed together at the center of the atom. Electrons orbit around the nucleus in the electron cloud.

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 is the name of the very small negatively charged particle found in the nucleus of an atom?
The small, negatively-charged particle in an atom is an electron. However, this is not in the nucleus. The small negative particles in the nucleus are down quarks, which are smaller than protons and electrons. Strange quarks and bottom quarks are also negative, but are not found in the nucleus.

Who said An atom has a nucleus that is very small?
I believe you are refering to Ernest Rutherford.

Describe the experimental basis for believing that the nucleus occupies a very small fraction of the volume of the atom?
The experimental basis for believing that the nucleus occupies a very small fraction of the volume of the atom comes from the results of the Rutherford gold foil experiment. In this experiment, alpha particles were fired at a thin gold foil, and most particles passed straight through, indicating that the nucleus, where most of the atom's mass is concentrated, is very small compared to the overall size of the atom. This led to the development of the planetary model of the atom, where electrons orbit a small, dense nucleus.
