NUCLEUS

----------------------------------------------------------------------

In an atom, there are three subatomic particles. Two of them are found in the central region known as the nucleus: the proton, which is positively charged and neutron that does not have a charge. Another region, containing the negatively charged electron, is known as a cloud, an electron cloud if you want.

What is the region around a charged object where the object and the electric force interacts with other charged objects called?

The region around a charged object where the object's electric field interacts with other charged objects is called the electric field or the influence region. This region determines the force that a test charge will experience if placed within it.


What is the region surrounding a charged object in which other objects are attracted or repelled by an electric force called?

Electromagnetic field. An electric field.


How did Rutherford explain the results of his gold foil experiment?

Rutherford made the following conclusions:Since most of the alpha particles passed straight through the gold foil without any deflection, most of the space within the atoms is empty.Since some of the alpha particles (which are big in size) were deflected by large angles or bounced backwards, they must have approached some positively charged region responsible for the deflection. This positively charged region is now called the nucleus.As very few alpha particles undergone the deflection, it was concluded that the volume occupied by the central region ( nucleus ) is very small.Since alpha particles which are relatively denser, were deflected by the central volume of charge, it shows that almost the complete mass of the atom must be within the central volume.


What is a region around a charged object where the charged objects electric force is exerted on another charged objects?

The region around a charged object where the electric force is exerted on another charged object is called the electric field. It arises from the charged object creating a force on other charged objects in its vicinity based on their charges and distances from the source charge.

Can polar molecules have regions of charge?

Not only can they, they must. At least one positively charged region and at least one negatively charged region.


What is Ernest Rutherford's contributions to the atomic sturcture?

Rutherford's famous gold foil experiment disproved Thompson's "plum pudding" model of the atom, and instead suggested a small, central, positively charged region (the nucleus) surrounded by a cloud of negatively charged electrons.

A bond that forms between a positively charged hydrogen atom of one molecule and a negatively charged region of another molecule is a?

A bond that forms between a positively charged hydrogen atom of one molecule and a negatively charged region of another molecule is a hydrogen bond. Hydrogen bonds are weak attractions between a slightly positive hydrogen atom and a slightly negative atom (like oxygen or nitrogen) in another molecule.

What is the center of an atom is dense region consisting of proton and neutron is called?

The dense region at the center of an atom, consisting of protons and neutrons, is called the atomic nucleus. It contains the majority of the atom's mass and is positively charged due to the presence of protons. Electrons orbit around the nucleus in the electron cloud.
