We have learned from the subject of quantum mechanics that energy exists in discrete packages called quanta. You cannot have a half a quantum of energy, the universe is not constucted that way. The farther an electron is from the nucleus, the more potential energy it has (in the same way that an elevated object has gravitational potential energy) and that energy comes in specific quanta. Therefore, electrons can only have specific orbital distances. Any other distance would require a fraction of a quantum of energy, which is not allowed.

What were the rules about Niels Bohr electrons?
Niels Bohr's model of the atom proposed that electrons exist in quantized orbits around the nucleus, with each orbit corresponding to a specific energy level. Electrons can absorb or emit energy by jumping between these orbits, but they cannot exist in between these levels. This model helped explain the stability of atoms and the discrete nature of atomic spectra.
What is a sub particle that orbits around an atoms nucleus and carries a negative charge?
electrons=you ding dong
What binds atoms?
Atoms are bound together by interactions between their electrons. The sharing or transfer of electrons between atoms creates chemical bonds that hold them together. These bonds can be covalent, ionic, or metallic depending on the way electrons are shared or transferred between atoms.
What part of atoms circulates within orbits and carries a negative charge?
Electrons; valence electrons are on the outermost level
What types of electrons are responsible for bonding between atoms?
Valence electrons, the are on the outermost layer of the atom
Where are the bonding electrons located between two atoms?
The bonding electrons are located in the outermost energy levels of the atoms, shared between the two atoms to form a chemical bond.
Can atoms share electrons when their outer orbits are not filled?
yes
In a Lewis dot structure the electrons which complete an octet but are not located between two atoms are referred to as?
In a Lewis dot structure, the electrons which complete an octet but are not located between two atoms are referred to as lone pair electrons. These electrons are not involved in bonding with other atoms and are typically found on the central atom of the molecule.
Where are bonding electrons between two atoms?
Bonding electrons are located in the overlapping region of the atomic orbitals of two atoms when they form a covalent bond. These electrons are shared between the atoms to fill their respective valence shells and form a stable bond. The bonding electrons contribute to the attraction between the positively charged nuclei, holding the atoms together in a molecule.
When atoms combine with other atoms interaction occurs between their?
When atoms combine with other atoms, interactions occur between their electrons. The electrons are responsible for forming chemical bonds, which determine the stability and properties of the resulting compound. Different types of interactions, such as sharing, transferring, or attracting electrons, can lead to the formation of various chemical compounds.
What is the general location of the electrons in a covalent bond?
In a covalent bond, electrons are shared between two atoms and are located in the overlapping region of the orbitals of the bonded atoms. This shared electron density creates a bond that holds the atoms together.
Is the electrons of the atoms orbits the nucleus?
yes it does, my 5th grade class and i are studying chem.
Why do atoms share electros in covalent bonds?
Electrons in covalent orbits have a looser attraction to their nucleus than electrons in tighter orbits. This allows them to wander away from their host easier. When another like atom drifts into close proximity, the covalent electrons can drift into orbit around the neighbor, and back to its original host. This creates the "Covalent Bond" between the neighboring atoms. This drifting between atoms creates a form of molecular stability.
Where are electrons located in gold?
In the atoms.
What were the rules about Niels Bohr electrons?

This model helped explain the stability of atoms and the discrete nature of atomic spectra.
How can off-axis 2p orbits be utilized to form sigma bonds?
Off-axis 2p orbits can be utilized to form sigma bonds by overlapping with the s orbitals of other atoms. This overlapping allows for the sharing of electrons between the atoms, creating a strong and stable bond.
What makes atoms and elements alike?
both have a nucleus of protons and neutrons and outer orbits of electrons
