Yes, electron clouds have a negative charge. The electrons make up electron clouds (naturally) and the electron carries a negative electrostatic charge. Since electrons carry a negative electrostatic charge, and, by a fundamental principle of electrostatics like charges repel each other, the electrons don't like each other. That's one of the guiding principles behind electron spin and the structure of electron orbitals in chemistry and biochemistry. The big fat positive charge on the nucleus captures the electrons, but the electrons have to decide amongst themselves how they're gonna get along out in the electron shells. And they do. Is it any wonder that electron shell structures rule most of chemistry?
What else can I help you with?
Is so3 trigonal planar?
YES it is. This is because there are 3 electron clouds around the central Sulfur atom. These clouds repel each other as far apart as possible (120 degrees) because electron clouds are negative and like charges repel. All three of these are bonded so the overall shape is trigonal planar.
What does an electron plus electron equal?
An electron plus an electron will repel each other due to their negative charges. This is because like charges repel each other according to the principles of electromagnetism.
Is a region in which there is a good chance of finding an electron?
in the electron clouds of an atom
Do atoms within a molecule repel each other?
In general, atoms within a molecule are held together by bonding forces such as covalent bonds. These forces are attractive and help to keep the atoms close together. However, in some cases, atoms may repel each other due to overlapping electron clouds and steric hindrance if they are positioned too closely.
How many electron clouds does element technetium have?
Technetium has 43 electrons placed on five electron shells.
Does an electron attract another electron?
No, they repel each other.
What will an electron do if placed near another electron?
The two electrons will repel one another, through the electrostatic force.
Why does an electron repel a?
An electron repels another electron because they both have a negative charge. Like charges repel each other due to the fundamental principle of electrostatic force.
Is so3 trigonal planar?
YES it is. This is because there are 3 electron clouds around the central Sulfur atom. These clouds repel each other as far apart as possible (120 degrees) because electron clouds are negative and like charges repel. All three of these are bonded so the overall shape is trigonal planar.
Do atoms ever physically touch each other?
No, atoms do not physically touch each other because they are surrounded by electron clouds that repel each other due to electromagnetic forces.
What does an electron plus electron equal?
An electron plus an electron will repel each other due to their negative charges. This is because like charges repel each other according to the principles of electromagnetism.
How many electron clouds does lithium have?
it really depends i know for sure that its 3 electron clouds
Is a region in which there is a good chance of finding an electron?
in the electron clouds of an atom
How many electron clouds does fermium have?
Fermium has seven electron shells.
Do atoms within a molecule repel each other?
In general, atoms within a molecule are held together by bonding forces such as covalent bonds. These forces are attractive and help to keep the atoms close together. However, in some cases, atoms may repel each other due to overlapping electron clouds and steric hindrance if they are positioned too closely.
How many electron clouds in zirconium?
Zirconium has four electron clouds surrounding its nucleus. These clouds correspond to the four electrons in zirconium's outermost energy level.
How many electron clouds does element technetium have?
Technetium has 43 electrons placed on five electron shells.
