Pythagoras said that all things are numbers. Because the characteristics of an atom can be described in numbers, any substance can be expressed as a combination of these numbers.

What did Rutherford say atoms looked like?

Rutherford proposed that atoms have a dense, positively charged nucleus surrounded by negatively charged electrons orbiting the nucleus like planets around the sun. This led to the development of the planetary model of the atom.


How do molecules say together?

Assuming you meant 'stay' and not 'say' then the answer would be bonds. Atoms within a molecule are bonded together by either covalent or ionic bonds depending on the difference between their negativities. For instance, NaCl, commonly known as table salt, is an ionic bond while CO2 is a covalent bond. A rule of thumb is that if the two atoms are the same time (IE nonmetal or metal) then they are covalent.


Do the chlorine atoms ever return the electrons to the sodium atoms?

No, the chlorine atoms do not return the electrons to the sodium atoms.


Decaying uranium atoms in the earths crust are what?

Decaying uranium atoms in the Earth's crust are radioactive and release energy in the form of alpha, beta, and gamma radiation as they decay. This process occurs at a constant rate known as the half-life of uranium. The decay of uranium atoms plays a significant role in the geologic processes and the formation of Earth's natural resources.
