Got it!BvU said:He looks at the forces on the H nuclei, the protons. It's those that are being pulled together by the electrons 'preferably moving about' in the area between them.
Your gut feeling is right, but it applies to the electron orbitals, not to the proton 'positions'.
The types of forces between subatomic particles in a molecule include electromagnetic forces, strong nuclear forces, and weak nuclear forces.
Electromagnetic forces between positively and negatively charged particles hold the molecule together, while strong nuclear forces between protons and neutrons contribute to the stability of the nucleus. Weak nuclear forces play a role in radioactive decay.
Yes, these forces can be broken or disrupted through various processes such as chemical reactions, radioactive decay, or high energy collisions.
The strength and type of forces between subatomic particles in a molecule can affect its physical and chemical properties, such as melting point, boiling point, and reactivity.
No, the type and strength of forces between subatomic particles can vary depending on the types of atoms and their arrangement in a molecule. This can result in differences in properties between different molecules.
