B) electron. C) nucleus. D) neutron. E) proton. The correct answer is A)‚ atom. According to page 105 an atom retains the characteristic of that element. b) Describes the negative charge of a particle. Even though it has no mass it is not considered the characteristic of that element c)

charged particle was the cause of the light produced by the cathode-ray tube. He also discovered that these particles are present in all elements. These cathode-ray particles are now known as electrons. Soon after the discovery of electrons the proton was discovered. This led Thomson to conclude that ther were an equal number of both particles present in the atom. Twelve years later Lord Ernest Rutherford was experimenting with alpha particles. He shot a stream of them at a piece of gold

Is your hair then positively or negatively charged? How about the comb? -The hair becomes positively charged and the comb becomes negatively charged; since‚ the electrons went from your hair to the comb and the more electrons there is makes an object more negative. 18)

Cosmic Engine - Research Task 1. Describe how energy can be released from the nuclei of atoms (6) Most nuclei are stable. Consisting of protons and neutrons‚ they are unaffected by chemical reactions and have remained the same since they were formed. However‚ some nuclei are unstable and spontaneously release energy in the form of a Helium nucleus (α Alpha)‚an electron (β Beta) and γ Gamma rays. These nuclei are known as radioactive and it’s not possible to predict when a particular

In addition‚ the protons attracted to the balloon so they came to the surface of the wall because opposite attract the electrons in the balloon holds to the protons on the front of the wall.

Structure of the Atom Dense nucleus composed of neutrons (0 charge) and protons (+ charge) and surrounded by orbital electrons (- charge). Neutrons and protons firmly held in the nucleus while electrons are very loosely held and are easy to remove. When electrons are removed from the atom‚ two charged particles (ions) are produced the positively charged atom and the negative electron. Energy is absorbed to remove the electron from the atom.

Nuclear Chemistry Nuclear science is the study of sub-atomic particles and their function in various subjects. A nucleon is the collective name for the two components of the atomic nucleus: the neutron and the proton. Isotopes are any of the different forms of an element each having different mass numbers‚ which give the total number of nucleons. The major fundamentals of nuclear chemistry include radioactive decay‚ the nature of fission and fusion‚ and mass defect. The decomposition of the
