What is a good comparison of the charge of an electron and charge of a proton?

An electron has a negative charge, represented as -1.6 x 10^-19 coulombs, while a proton has a positive charge of +1.6 x 10^-19 coulombs. Despite having opposite charges, the magnitudes of their charges are equal. This characteristic is fundamental in the interactions between electrons and protons in atoms.


Why is H also an accepted symbol for a proton?

H +This indicates the ion of hydrogen, which has donated it's only electron and has become positively charged. Hydrogen is one proton with one electron in it's orbital, so H + is a good symbol for the positively charged proton.p +Is also used.


What is a proton edar and what is it good for?

Proton Edar is a company that supplies cars finances and panel insurance. It is good for people who looking for a great service for their car and house.


What is similar to an electron and has positive charge?

Nothing is identical to an electron as electrons obey the Pauli exclusion principle and they are all different. == Another electron. All electrons have the same elemental structure. Certainly when we evaluate them in "small regions" of space, their momentum is uncertain. But intrinsically, all electrons are alike. And somewhere there is footage of Murray Gell-Mann saying exactly that. He has a pretty good grip on stuff like this. The Nobel Prize he won in Physics is just icing on the cake.


Is a region in which there is a good chance of finding an electron?

in the electron clouds of an atom

What is a good comparison of the charge of and the charge of a proton?

They are equal in magnitude but opposite in charge.


What is the particle which is opposite in charge to the electron?

The particle that has the opposite charge of an electron is the proton. The electron has a charge of -1 while the proton has a charge of +1. (Though they have equal - but opposite - charges, the proton is about 1836 times more massive than the electron.) It might be worth mentioning that the antiparticle of the electron, the positron, also has a charge of +1. And it (the positron or antielectron) has a mass identical to the electron's. (An antielectron, the positron, will combine with an electron when the pair are at low energy in an annhilation event. Both particles will have their masses converted into energy.)


What is electron donor?

An electron donor is a substance that donates electrons to another substance during a chemical reaction, typically becoming oxidized in the process. In biological systems, molecules like NADH or FADH2 are electron donors that transfer electrons to the electron transport chain.

What is the electric force between a proton and an electron?

Go to the top of page 6 in unit 4 and you will see an example that almost answers the tma question. Just flip the two force laws over and plug in the values on the back of the book. Remember, on the back of the book it states the electric charge of a proton so stick a minus sign in front and you have the electric charge of the electron. Good luck with the course Fellow SM358 student


What produces hydrogen atoms?

A Hydrogen atom is made up of a proton and a electron... and that's about it. They aren't really produced, they just form. But as they only have the one electron when there is space for two (one proton and two electrons would form a Helium atom), they have a positive charge and are very good for reacting with other elements, particularly those carrying a negative charge.

Does positive and positive repel or attract?

Like charges- repel Opposite charges- attract ...therefore a positive and positive will repel


The energy given up by electrons as they move through the electron transport chain is used to?

The energy given up by electrons as they move through the electron transport chain is used to pump protons across the inner mitochondrial membrane, creating a proton gradient. This proton gradient is then used to drive ATP synthesis by ATP synthase, producing ATP, the main energy currency of the cell.
