Question

where do the forces that make atoms interact come from? (1 point)

from the electric fields of charged molecules

from the electric fields of charged subatomic particles

from the electric fields of neutral molecules

from the electric fields of neutral subatomic particles

Explanation:

Atoms are made of subatomic particles (protons, electrons, neutrons). Protons are positive, electrons negative, neutrons neutral. Electric fields from charged particles (protons/electrons) create forces for atom interactions. Molecules are made of atoms, so forces start at subatomic level. Neutral particles (neutrons, neutral molecules) have no electric field to exert force. So the correct source is charged subatomic particles.

Answer:

B. from the electric fields of charged subatomic particles
