Is an alpha charge a 0 - plus?

No because alpha is not a word


Is it true that beta particles have a charge of2 plus?

No. Beta- particles, electrons, have a charge of -1, and beta+ particles, positrons, have a charge of +1.The alpha particle has a charge of +2.


What is the alpha charge?

If you mean the charge of an alpha particle, it's +2 since they're made up of 2 protons and 2 neutrons, protons having plus 1 charge, neutrons having 0.

What correctly describes the charge of beta particles and alpha particles?

Beta particles, from beta- decay, have a charge of -1. Beta particles, from beta+ decay, have a charge of +1. Alpha particles have a charge of +2.


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).


Does an alpha particle have a relative mass of 1 amu and no charge?

No, an alpha particle has a mass of 4 amu and a charge of +2. It is a helium nucleus. The neutron has a mass of 1 amu and no charge.


What charge does alpha have?

Alpha has a charge of +2.


What particles has a mass of 4 amu and a charge of 2 plus?

An alpha particle, boom.


How do the electric charges of alpha particles beta particles and gamma rays differ from each other?

From Physics Forums The alpha particle has a 2+ charge, beta has 1- charge, and the gamma is neutral (no charge). The beta particle could also have a 1+ charge if it undergoes positron emission [a proton turns into a neutron and a positron (the "anti-electron")]
