- What are the negatively charged electrons attracted to?
Electrons are attracted to just about anything that carries a positive charge, and often to neutral objects as well Electrons in atoms are attracted to the nuclei of that atom This attraction helps make the atom a stable body However, in the case of bonding, the electrons of one atom are drawn toward the nuclei of both of the bonded atoms This simultaneous attraction to two nuclei is the
- Question #021e1 - Socratic
36 neutrons One way we have of differentiating between various nuclides of the same element is by writing the name of the element followed by a hyphen and the mass number of the nuclide In your case, you would have zinc-66, a nuclide of zinc that has a mass number equal to 66 Now, an atom's mass number, A, tells you the number of protons, which is given by the atomic number, Z, and neutrons

- Is helium reactive? - Socratic
By no means is helium reactive Helium is (i) difficult to oxidize (because it has a closed shell electronic configuration; and (ii) to difficult to reduce (for the same reason!) The closed shell electronic configuration makes the helium atom supremely unreactive
- What is the Lewis structure of ozone? - Socratic
This is slightly compressed respect to with the regular bond angle of 120^@ due to the influence of the oxygen lone pair, the which is closer to the central oxygen atom, and exerts a repulsive influence on the bonding pairs

- How would you construct a model to show the atomic structure . . . - Socratic
Now the oxygen atom is neutral Around the nuclear core, 8 electrons, 8 fundamental negatively charged particles of negligible mass are conceived to whizz about To a first approx modern views of electronic structure hold that the electrons are confined to various energy levels
