Which particle or particles of an atom have little mass?
electrons
What is the subatomic particle that has the greatest mass?
The largest subatomic particle (by mass) is the proton. The mass of subatomic particles is measured in atomic mass units (amu). The proton has a mass of 1.007 amu, the neutron has a mass of 1 amu, and the electron has a mass of .0005 amu.
What is the reason particles have mass?
Particles have mass because they are matter, and matter is anything that has mass and takes up space. The wave packet that defines the particle is of such high frequency that its energy has a gravitational vector.
What is the difference between a subatomic particle and a elementary particle?
A particle is of indeterminate size. Large 'particles' may be suspended in something like water and cause that substance to look cloudy. Smaller particles may be the subatomic particles like protons, neutrons, and electrons that make up atoms. Different atoms have different numbers of these particles, expecially protons which determine which atom it is.
What particle or particles carry virtually all the mass (weight) of any atom?
Virtually all of the mass of an atom is carried by the proton and the neutron. The electron has very, very little mass relative to these two particles.
Alpha particles and beta particles differ in?
Alpha particles are positively charged helium nuclei while beta particle are negatively charged electrons . Alpha particle have 4u mass while beta particles have zero mass.
What subatomic particle or particles contributes the most to the mass of the atom?
These particles are protons and neutrons.
Which particle or particles of an atom have little mass?
electrons
How do the mass and size of an alpha particle compare with mass and size of beta particle?
The mass and size of an alpha particle compare with the masa and size of beta particle in the sense that the alpha particle is significantly larger in both size and mass that the beta and gamma particles. This is why it is called the alpha particle.
When faster moving and slower moving particles collide which particles gain energy?
It depends upon the mass of the particles also. Assuming equal mass, then the slower moving particle gains some energy, and the faster moving particle loses energy. However, if the slower moving particle had greater mass, it could transfer energy to the faster moving particle.
How do you call a subatomic particle that has no mass and a negative charge?
No such particle exists. All particles with charge also have mass -- no exceptions. Every particle with zero mass also has zero charge -- no exceptions.
What particle has about the same mass as proton but has no charge?
A neutron. It is one of the particles in the nucleus and has no charge
What is the subatomic particle that has the greatest mass?
The largest subatomic particle (by mass) is the proton. The mass of subatomic particles is measured in atomic mass units (amu). The proton has a mass of 1.007 amu, the neutron has a mass of 1 amu, and the electron has a mass of .0005 amu.
A particle that has mass and a positive electrical charge?
There are three atomic particles with mass, the proton, neutron and electron. Of these three, the proton is the particle with a positive charge.
Subatomic particles with the most mass?
This particle is the neutron: 1,00866491600(43) amu.
What is a subatomic particles with almost no mass?
The electron is the lightest particle in the atom.
What particles have the most mass?
In the atom the heaviest particle is the neutron but the proton is close.
