They are electromagnetic radiation, so no.
Gamma decay involves the emission of a gamma ray, which is a high-energy photon with no charge and no mass.
The correct order is c) Alpha particle, beta particle, gamma ray. Alpha particles have the greatest mass, followed by beta particles, and then gamma rays which have no mass.
No, a gamma ray is a massless particle with no rest mass, whereas an electron has a measurable mass.
Emission of a gamma ray does not change the atomic number of the atom. A gamma ray is a photon, and has no mass. The atom's mass is reduced by the conversion of a tiny amount of mass into the energy of the gamma ray. This changes neither the number of protons nor the number of neutrons. It is done by rearranging the nucleons, changing the state of excitation of the nucleus. An example is when 99mTc emits a gamma ray and changes to 99Tc.
A gamma ray has no mass as it is a part of the electromagnetic spectrum. It is similar in properties to light, it is just at a smaller wavelength.
Gamma rays are a type of electromagnetic radiation, which is a type energy. Because a gamma ray is a type of energy, it has no mass.
When a gamma ray is emitted by a nucleus, neither the mass nor the charge of the nucleus changes. Gamma emission involves the release of energy in the form of electromagnetic radiation, but it does not alter the fundamental properties of the nucleus such as mass or charge.
Neither changes. A gamma ray is just energy, and the nucleus simply transitions to a lower energy state.
yes!!
The emission of a gamma ray changes neither the mass number nor the atomic number of a nucleus. An example of an equation for gamma emission is: 99mTc --> 99Tc + gamma The "m" associated with the mass number indicates a metastable nuclear isomer.
Gamma Ray
A gamma ray is a high-energy photon of electromagnetic radiation. It does not have mass or charge, but it carries a significant amount of energy. Gamma rays are produced during the decay of atomic nuclei or in high-energy astrophysical processes.
