Question

what is the structural stability of an atom?

Answer 1

the subatomic particles called nutrons protons and electrons.

Answer 2

Answer:

Answer:

Atomic Stability is dependent on whether the outer shell is filled with electrons. Those elements which outer shell isn't filled with electrons often combine with other elements to form chemical bonds, or chemical compounds.

Let's take Hydrogen, for example. Hydrogen has only one electrons and has low energy level, a perfect combination for a weak atomic stability, which therefore Hydrogen often combines with Water ( H2O ) for a more stable atomic stability.

For Uranium, for example, has a ratio of Neutrons ( 141 - 156 ) higher than Protons ( 92 ), which cause it to be unstable, and therefore radioactive.

Same goes to most of the Man - made elements, for example, Moscovium.

Moscovium has 115 Protons and have 174 Neutrons, a ratio of Neutrons higher than protons. Which is why, Moscovium is very unstable, with a half life of only 0.65 seconds.

Technetium has 43 Protons and 55 Neutrons, a ratio of Neutrons higher than protons. This is also why Tellurium is unstable and radioactive.
