Electrons are subatomic particles that have a negative charge. They are found orbiting the atomic nucleus and are involved in chemical reactions and electricity. Electrons play a crucial role in forming bonds between atoms to create molecules.

What is the electron configuration when you have 0 electrons?

When ionised to have no electrons, the usual notation would be 1s0. However, this is almost never needed, as other information and context will usually imply or define that there are no electrons.


How would you define ionic and covalent?

Ionic bond-bond formed by donating or transfer of electrons. Covalent bond-bond formed by sharing of electrons.


Do atoms have different amounts of protons neutrons and electrons?

An atom is comprised of a nucleus of protons and neutrons, and layers of 'shells' in which the electrons revolve around the nucleus. An element is defined by the number of protons in the nucleus while the number of electrons on the outer shell define an atoms group on the periodic table. Then the number of neutrons is added to the number of protons to define the atomic weight of the atom.


Define Conventional current?

How are electrons less than all atoms?

They have less mass; and depending on how you define their "size", they also have less size.


Define atomic radii?

The atomic radii is the measure of the size of the atoms in a chemical element. This is the distance from the nucleus to the boundary of the electrons' cloud.


Define Internal Resistance?

The internal resistance of a device is the resistance in ohms of that device. It is the resistance electrons need to overcome before electricity is said to flow.

What are free electrons of conductor?

First we have to define the word an electron, An electron is negatively charged particle. A metal is a substance consists of number of both electrons and protons. Electrons emitted from the metal surface through different ways such ways as Thermionic, Photoelectric, etc. Free electrons of conductor are electrons emitted from conductor when it disturbed through ways as mentioned above
