Air has various particles. although many people consider air oxygen it is actually mostly nitrogen, and various other things. This is the breakdown of "standard" air
Nitrogen 78.08
Oxygen 20.95
Argon 0.93
Carbon dioxide 0.03
Neon 0.0018
Helium 0.0005
Krypton 0.0001
Xenon 0.00001

Why do alpha particles travel shorter distance in air than beta particles?
because alfa particle have a tendency to move in air then beta particles
Why is the motion of one particle in a gas independent of the motion of the other particles?
due to large air space between particle
Does particles move in different directions?
molecules in the air constantly moving and hitting the dust particle.
What is smoke a mixture of?
Smoke is a mixture of gases, solid particle, liquid particles, water vapors and air.
Are air particles smaller than that of gas particles?
Air particles are gas particles. Some gas particle are larger than others, and the nitrogen (N2) and oxygen (O2) that make up 99% of our atmosphere are rather large, which is why lighter gases, such as hydrogen (H2) and helium (He) rise.
What is an air particle?
dust particles
Can air be considered a particle?
No, but it can be suggested as gas particles
Why do alpha particles travel shorter distance in air than beta particles?
because alfa particle have a tendency to move in air then beta particles
What is the range of beta particles in the air?
The range of beta particles in the air is up to several hundred feet. Beta particles are emitted by specific types of radioactive nuclei. Potassium-40 is a type of radioactive nuclei that emits beta particles.
Why is the motion of one particle in a gas independent of the motion of the other particles?
due to large air space between particle
Use particle in a sentence?
"It doesn't make a particle of difference to me." "The microscope could easily examine a single particle of dust."
Does each air particle expand as air is heated?
it is not the heat particle that expand it is the intermolecular space between them increases by particles moving further apart and all particles move apart by gaining kinetic energy but not at the same time.
What is bombarding particles?
Bombarding particles is particle that bombard the wall of a surface.This usually happens because of the air pressure in something.
What are the two types of air?
particles and gases
Does particles move in different directions?
molecules in the air constantly moving and hitting the dust particle.

Is the O2 in the air you breathe an electron particle?
There are electron particles in O2 as well as in every thing in your body.
