Atoms with a full outer shell are stable, but free radicals are unstable, and in an effort to make up the number of electrons in their outer shell, they react quickly with other substances.

For the first time, quarks and gluons were used to describe properties of atomic nuclei, which until now had been explained by the existence of protons and neutrons. The temporary pair of correlated ...

The 11-year-old daughter of Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan kicked off her sixth grade on Aug. 28, rocking a chic ensemble in baggy sheer white cargo pants and a matching top that ties at the neck.

They're tiny. But even tinier than atoms are the protons, neutrons and electrons that they're made of. A hydrogen atom is 100,000 times bigger than the proton that sits in the middle of it!

Key Concepts Adding energy (heating) atoms and molecules increases their motion, resulting in an increase in temperature. Removing energy (cooling) atoms and molecules decreases their motion, ...
