What is the atomic mass for alpha radiation?
The same as for a helium nucleus: 4. Two protons and two neutrons.
What are helium atom nucleus?
The nucleus of a helium atom contains two protons and usually two neutrons, giving it an atomic mass of 4 atomic mass units. It is positively charged due to the protons it contains, while the electrons orbit around the nucleus in the electron cloud.
How many protons are in helium -3?
There are two protons in 3He. All isotopes and ions of the same elements will have the same number of protons regardless of the difference in the number of neutrons or electrons. So the information about which isotope is (by saying helium-3) is unneeded.
Are hydrogen-3 and helium -3 isotopes of the same element?
No, hydrogen-3 (tritium) and helium-3 are not isotopes of the same element. Hydrogen-3 is an isotope of hydrogen, while helium-3 is an isotope of helium. They have different numbers of protons and neutrons in their nuclei, giving them distinct chemical and physical properties.
Does alpha have zero mass and zero charge?
An alpha particle is a helium nucleus. It consists of two protons and two neutrons so it has mass (approximately the same as the mass of a helium atom) and charge (a plus two charge because each proton has a charge of plus one and the neutrons are not charged).
What element has an atomic mass of 4.0?
The element with an atomic mass of 4.0 is helium. Helium has an atomic number of 2, which means it has two protons in its nucleus. It also has two neutrons, giving it an atomic mass of 4.0.
Are the number of protons and electrons in helium atom the same or different?
They are always the same
Why does helium not have a charge?
all atoms generally do not have charge as the number of protons and number of electrons will be the same.
Neutrons and what almost have the same mass?
A neutron and a proton almost have the same mass. A neutron and 1,840 electrons almost have the same mass.
Which two subatomic particles have about the same mass?
Ah, isn't it fascinating how the proton and neutron have about the same mass? They're like two peas in a pod, working together to make up the nucleus of an atom. Just imagine them dancing around, creating harmony in the world of particles.
How is the mass number determine?
the mass number is determined on the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of the atom.
Do protons nuetrons and electrons all have about the same mass?
Protons and neutrons have about the same mass, but electrons are much, much lighter.
