How does quarks theory compensate spliting of neutron into electron and proton?
Supposedly one of the down quarks of the neutron becomes an up; thus the neutron becomes a proton and an electron (and a neutrino) are emitted.
Which are the subatomic particles of an atom?
These particles are: proton, neutron, electron. Proton and neutron contain quarks and gluons.
What statements are true about quarks?
Each proton and neutron is made up of three quarks
What is a true statement about quarks?
Each proton and neutron is made up of three quarks.
These are the tiny particles that make up neutrons and protons in an atoms nucleus?
Both a neutron and a proton are made up of 3 quarks.Both a neutron and a proton are made up of 3 quarks.Both a neutron and a proton are made up of 3 quarks.Both a neutron and a proton are made up of 3 quarks.
How many quarks are in neutron?
Any baryon by definition contains three quarks (or three antiquarks). The neutron, and proton, by the way, are both baryons, and the neutron contains two down quarks and one up quark.
What is the smallest particle in atom?
The quarks, building blocks of proton and neutron.
What sub atomic particles has a negative charge?
Electrons, down quarks, strange quarks, bottom quarks, muon lepton, and tau lepton all have negative charge. Also, the boson can be negative.
Can the number change in a proton?
The number of quarks in a proton is always three.Two Up quarks and one Down quark
How many particles are in a proton neutron and electron?
A proton and neutron are both composed of three quarks. An electron is a fundamental particle and is not composed of smaller particles.
What is the electronically neutral particle found in an atom?
That would be the neutron. It resides within the nucleus of the atom, along with the proton. It is very similar to the proton except that it is electrically neutral. (It is made up of quarks, similar to the proton. However, the neutron is made of one up quark and two down quarks, while the proton is composed of two up quarks and one down quark.)
How could a neutron become a proto n?
A neutron consists of three quarks, a up quark and two down quarks. One of these down quarks can decay into an up quark (which is lighter) and a W- boson. You now have two up quarks and one down quark which makes up a proton! Your neutron has changed into a proton! The W- boson goes on to decay into (probably) an electron and anti-electron neutrino.
