What else can I help you with?
Do atoms move between your bodies and other objects?
No, atoms typically remain within the bounds of objects. While some atoms can transfer between bodies through processes like breathing or consuming food, they do not freely move between objects without a specific mechanism for transfer.
The man responsible for discovering that the atom is mostly space is?
Ernest Rutherford is credited with discovering that atoms are mostly comprised of empty space. Through his gold foil experiment in 1909, he showed that atoms have a dense, positively charged nucleus surrounded by mostly empty space where electrons orbit.
Is a chair made of atoms?
Yes, all objects are made of atoms of various elements.
Are all objects made of atoms?
Yes, all objects are made up of atoms. Atoms are the basic building blocks of matter and combine to form molecules, which in turn make up all materials and objects we interact with in our daily lives.
If atoms are mostly empty space why can't people walk through walls?
because they are so small and so close together that there is no humanly known way to manufacture objects small enough to pass through these extremely small spaces. So the empty space is not easy to get into. Atoms have a central nucleus and electrons whizzing around the nucleus in extremely fast orbits. Sometimes there are several layers or 'shells' of orbiting electrons. The whole structure is held together by strong forces, bot easily broken. Scientists have only recently been able to split to atom, but is has taken a lot of power snd scientific expertise. Furthermore, individual atoms are bonded to other atoms, making a very strong element or material, which holds together and which prevents other atoms from passing through.

Why is it impossible to go right through things?
Because of the electromagnetic force. The repulsion between the electrons of the atoms of the two objects will not allow them to pass through each other.
Why can't we walk through walls if atoms are mostly empty space?
The reason we can't walk through walls even though atoms are mostly empty space is because the electrons in the atoms repel each other due to their negative charge. This repulsion creates a barrier that prevents objects from passing through solid surfaces.
Why can't humans walk through objects if the atoms in your bodies are mostly empty space?
Because the outsides of all atoms are negatively charged so they repel when they come close.
Transfer of thermal energy through atoms contacting other atoms?
Not likely. Atoms are mostly empty space.
Why cant the kinetic energy of all the atoms in an object be measured?
because they are so small and objects contain so many of them, it is impossible to measure the kinetic energy of all the individual atoms
Do atoms move between your bodies and other objects?

Why can't I walk through solid objects?
There simply isn't enough space for your atoms to pass through the atoms of a solid object. You can swim in water and walk through a gas because the particles are so spread apart, but you cant walk through solid objects because the particle configuration is extremely dense.
Why does light goes through transparent objects and translucent object?
Light can pass through transparent objects because their atoms are arranged in a way that allows light to travel without being absorbed. In translucent objects, the atoms are arranged in a less orderly manner, which causes light to scatter as it passes through, making the object appear cloudy or opaque.
What force keeps things from falling through surfaces?
The electromagnetic force between atoms and molecules in surfaces prevents objects from falling through them. When two objects come in contact, the repulsion between the electrons in the surface atoms and the object's electrons creates a barrier that resists penetration. This force is what gives surfaces their solidity and prevents objects from passing through them.
Can all objects contain heat?
Yes, all objects have the potential to contain heat. The amount of heat an object can hold depends on its specific properties, such as size, material, and temperature. Heat is a form of energy that can be stored in objects through various processes like conduction, convection, and radiation.
Can atoms be seen or felt?
No its impossible :]
