What is the movement of an atom?

Answer 1

Atoms engage in a variety of different types of movement. Even within a motionless, solid object, the atoms are vibrating. The higher the temperature of that object, the greater the amount of vibration. In a gas, the atoms (or molecules, depending upon the type of gas) all move independently of each other, they fly around generally at considerable speed, colliding with each other and with other materials in the environment. It is also true that when larger, visible objects move, the atoms of which they are composed also move. And even a seemingly motionless object that we might observe, is part of the planet Earth and is therefore in orbit around the sun, taking all its atoms with it. Many other modes of movement also exist.

Answer 2

There are several models for the electron.

If you look at the electron as a statistical wave in the electromagnetic field there is no "movement" but the intensity of the electric and magnetic fields change over time.

The particle model has the electron moving at great speed (almost 300 000 meters per second in orbits around atoms). If an electric potential is applied to a metal conductor,some electrons will push on their neighbors and thus appear to cause a flow of electrons, the movement of individual electrons in the conductor is not anywhere as rapid as free flight through a vacuum.

Answer 3

The movement of Electrons are negative and are very slow

Answer 4

The movement of a electrons,Electrons move along a conductor or a semiconductor what makes them move is when they are a negative charge

Answer 5

an electron doesn't have a movement in which you can predict where it's going to be it goes around the atom randomly

Answer 6

This creates electricity. Electricity isn't the electrons themselves, it's their movement and the current it creates.

Answer 7

current
