What is a proton in the nucleus converted into what during electron capture?
During electron capture, an electron and proton combine and are converted to a neutron.
What is ejected from a nucleus when a neutron is converted into a proton?
Electron also referred to as a beta particle in this instance
What heappens to an atom that experiences radioactive decay?
Electron capture is the absorption of an electron by an atomic nucleus if that nucleus is neutron poor. An electron is captured, usually from an inner electron shell of that atom, and it will convert a proton in the nucleus into a neutron. We know that a neutron is converted into a proton and an electron in neutron decay, so it might be looked at as something of an opposite nuclear reaction where a proton and an electron combine to form a neutron.
How electron created from nucleus?
I think you may be referring to Beta decay of a radioactive substance. Beta decay involves the emission of an electron and an electron antineutrino from the nucleus of an atom as a neutron is converted into a proton
What are three subatomic paarticles in an atom?
Neutron, proton, electron.Neutron, proton, electron.Neutron, proton, electron.Neutron, proton, electron.
How big is a electron compared to a proton?
A proton is bigger than electron
How big is a proton compared to a electron?
A proton is bigger than electron
Does an electron or proton have a larger charge?
No. The electron and proton have the same amount of charge. Its just that the electron's charge is negative and the proton's charge is positive.
Is a proton larger or smaller than electron?
An electron is 1/1,836 of a proton.
How do you charge an atom?
remove either a proton or electron OR add a proton or electron...
What is the difference in the amount of charges in a proton and electron?
A proton and an electron have exactly opposite charges. If you take the charge of a proton as +1, then an electron has a charge of -1.
What are the charges for an electron and a proton?
A proton has a positive charge of +1 An electron has a negative charge of -1 An neutron has no charge
