Draw arrows for all of the attractive and repulsive forces between the negatively charged electrons and positively charged protons in these atoms. Make sure your arrows clearly show the difference between attractive and repulsive forces. Note that the particles without a charge label are neutral.

Answer:

Attraction

(e-) ---> <--- (H+)

Repulsion:

<---(e-) (e-)-->

Neutral:

(e-) (Helium)

Step-by-step explanation:

Accordingly to coulomb's law:

In the attraction, the hydrogen without an electron has a positive charge and needs to be fulfilled with a negative charge found in an eletron.

In the repulsion, both electrons has the same charge and repulse each other.

In the neutral case, the Helium is highly stable therefore the electron is not attracted.
