How much does one gram of antimatter?
Anti matter does NOT exist. As soon as it is in contact with matter which is anything ; solid , liquid , gas, they are both annihilated. You can think of antimatter as protons with a negative charge and electrons with as positive charge. So Proton^+ Proton^- = Annihilation (??? Energy) Electron ^- + electron^+(positron) = Annihilation (???? Energy).
What happens to potential energy when a proton is brought closer to an electron?
Protons all have positive charge, so they repel each other. It takes work to push two protons closer together, so you're putting energy into them (potential energy increases). If you let go, the potential energy is released when the protons fly apart; it becomes kinetic energy.
What does thermal energy do to matter?
matter and thermal energy
What kind of proton causes a nuclear reaction?
All protons are identical. Any proton with sufficiently high energy can cause a nuclear reaction.
Does energy contain matter?
No, energy an matter are different phenomenons. Energy is the ability of a system to do work (ie to move matter). Matter has mass, and is related to energy by E = mcc.
What differs between a regular proton and an anti matter proton?
An anti-matter proton (or simply an "anti-proton") differs in charge, and thus spin as well.
What distributes and generates the suns energy?
A nuclear reaction, deep in the interior of the sun, called the proton-proton chain converts four hydrogen nuclei (protons) into the nucleus of a helium atom. The energy released results because some of the matter is converted to energy.

How much heaver is a proton to electron?
a proton is infinitely more heavy than an electron this is because electrons are made of energy and energy has no mass to be weighed and protons are made of matter and and have a mass that can be weighed. case in point electricity is energy, yet a dead battery weighs the same as one fully charged
Is proton a part of matter?
Yes, a proton is part of matter because it is a subatomic particle (part of an atom), and if an atom makes up matter, its proton does too. 3 Parts of Atoms: Protons + Neutrons 0 Electrons -
What are the simplest units of matter?
proton
What energy process do all main sequence stars share?
Proton-Proton
How much energy is produced when a proton and an anti proton collide?
1.5x10^-10
Solar energy is produced by the fusion of what?
Hydrogen (essentially a proton-proton reaction)
What anti-matter will do to us?
When antimatter meets normal matter, it will disintegrate. For example, a proton and an antiproton will mutually destroy, producing high-energy photons - they convert to "pure energy". A few grams of antimatter would cause an explosion comparable to an atomic bomb.
What happens to the energy if an electron moves away from a proton?
to have a proton come out of a nucleus the atom must be a large radioactive element, meaning its so big its unstable and particles come off. the particles that are released is the radiation so the proton is called alpha radiation the energy is purely its high speed momentum. the energy of a proton coming of a nucleus is technically mechanical energy.
