Why is nucleus of an atom charged is negatively charged?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Damm [24]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Charge is caused by a flow of electrons, since electrons are around the nucleus they can be lost or gained by atoms. When an atom gets charged, it gains a charge, that is, it gains an electron. Since electrons are negatively charged, when an atom gains one, it also becomes negatively charged.

If the density of water is 1g/cm3 what is its specific gravity
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

Specific gravity is the density of asubstance divided by the density of water. Since (at standard temperature and pressure) water has a density of 1 gram/cm3, and since all of the units cancel, specific gravity is usually very close to the same value as density(but without any units).

In the third period of the periodic table sodium is followed by magnesium aluminum silicon and phosphorus which of these element
wariber [46]
Answer:
            Phosphorous has the smallest atomic size.

Explanation:
                   As we know these elements belong to same period means there valence shell is the same. So moving from left to right along the period the shell number remains constant but the number of protons and electrons increases. So, due to increase in number of protons the nuclear charge increases hence attracts the valence electrons more effectively resulting in the decrease of atomic size.

Elements and their atomic radius are as follow,

<span><span>Magnesium          0.160 nm

Aluminium           0.130 nm

Silicon                  0.118 nm

Phosphorus         <span>0.110 nm</span></span></span>
