How much energy is contained within an atom?

The energy contained within an atom is determined by its nucleus and the arrangement of its electrons. This energy is known as the atom's binding energy, which is the amount of energy required to break the nucleus apart. The binding energy of an atom varies depending on its size and composition.


What element is used to produce tremendous energy contained in the nucleus of an atom?

hydrogen


How much energy is in a single atom of lead?

The energy contained in a single atom of lead is typically on the order of several electronvolts (eV). This energy is associated with the binding energy that holds the nucleus together and the energy levels of the electrons in the atom.


Where does the energy come from in the fission process?

It is stored in the atom.


in the use of nuclear, where does the "power" come from?

Energy contained in bonds within a nucleus that is converted to kinetic energy.


What sub levels are contained in the hydrogen atoms first four energy levels?

The hydrogen atom has only one electron.


How many nitrogen valence electrons can be contained in 1 atom?

5 valence electrons can be contained in 1 atom


Where are massive amounts of energy in an atom contained?

The majority of an atom's mass and energy is located in its nucleus, which contains protons and neutrons. The energy stored within the nucleus is released through nuclear reactions such as fission or fusion.


How many electrons are contained in the energy level closest to the nucleus?

It depends on which atom you are talking about. Be specific! (like all my teachers tell me) :)


Can the energy from splitting an atom be contained and used?

Yes, the energy released from splitting an atom (nuclear fission) can be contained and used to generate electricity in nuclear power plants. This energy is harnessed through controlled chain reactions that produce heat to create steam, which then drives turbines to generate electricity.


When an atom undergoes radioactive decay the energy released in the reaction comes from what?

The energy released in radioactive decay comes from the conversion of mass from the parent atom into energy according to Einstein's famous equation, E=mc². This energy is released in the form of radiation or kinetic energy of the decay products.


What is contained in the nucleus of a atom?

Protons and neutrons. Virtually all of the atom's mass.
