Hace 1 día · More than 99.94% of an atom's mass is in the nucleus. Protons have a positive electric charge and neutrons have no charge, so the nucleus is positively charged. The electrons are negatively charged, and this opposing charge is what binds them to the nucleus.
Hace 2 días · Bohr developed the Bohr model of the atom, in which he proposed that energy levels of electrons are discrete and that the electrons revolve in stable orbits around the atomic nucleus but can jump from one energy level (or orbit) to another.
Hace 3 días · Modern atomic theory, or more specifically quantum theory, describes an electron as not occupying a circular orbit at a fixed distance from the nucleus, unlike in the Bohr model. Instead, the electron can occupy a range of different positions, although with differing probabilities.

Hace 3 días · The atomic radius represents the distance from the nucleus to the outer electrons of an atom. Outer-shell electrons are subjected to a greater nuclear charge if the atomic number is high. The electrons are pulled closer toward the nucleus, and the size of the atom is reduced.
Hace 2 días · The atomic number represents the number of protons in the nucleus of all atoms, isotopes, and ions of the element. Therefore, an atom of calcium with an atomic number of 20 has 20 protons in its nucleus. The mass number is the total number of nucleons in the nucleus of an atom, isotope, or ion.
