When atoms are brought very close together, their electron clouds begin to overlap, leading to repulsive forces due to the electromagnetic interactions between the negatively charged electrons. If the atoms are forced even closer, the strong nuclear forces may come into play if they are within a very short distance, but typically, the repulsive forces dominate, preventing them from occupying the same space. This close proximity can also lead to the formation of chemical bonds or changes in the atoms' energy states, depending on their specific interactions.
What else can I help you with?
What state of matter has particles that very close together and do not move?
solids
What happens what you try to move atoms close to each other?
A chemical compound can be formed.
What happens if you try to move atoms very close to each other?
A chemical compound can be formed.
What happens to the atoms in a solid if you heat it?
When you heat a solid, the atoms gain energy and vibrate faster. This increased vibration causes the atoms to move further apart, expanding the solid. If heated enough, the solid can undergo a phase change into a liquid or gas as the forces holding the atoms together weaken.
What happens to the melting point of the alkali metals as the atom increase in size?
As we move down the group, the melting point decreases.
If you freeze a liquid what happens to the particles?
The particles move closer together and are practically so close they cannot move.
How do you particles in a solid move?
They don't they are close together and immobile.
What happens when the earth's plates move together?
a mountain forms.
What state of matter has particles that very close together and do not move?
solids
Electrons can move from atom to atom.?
elecron can move from atom to atom... yes
What happens when hydrogen atom absorbs a quantum of enery?
The electrons move up to a higher energy level.
What happens when an atom absorbs ultraviolet energy and an electron is involved?
When an atom absorbs ultraviolet energy and an electron is involved, the electron can move to a higher energy level or be ejected from the atom, leading to the atom becoming ionized or excited.
What happens what you try to move atoms close to each other?
A chemical compound can be formed.
When the potential energy of a material changes what happens to the materials what of matter changes?
In a solid the particles are close together and in fixed positions In a liquid the particles are still really close together but can move around past each other In a gas the particles are free to move and far apart During a state change the particles in the substance will change from being in one of the above to another
What is the state of matter that has molecules that are close together they cannot move?
the answer to that question is solid
What happens if you try to move atoms very close to each other?
A chemical compound can be formed.
What happens to the electrons after absorbing energy from light?
After absorbing energy from light, electrons in an atom can move to higher energy levels or be released from the atom altogether in a process called photoemission.
