When light behaves like a particle what is the particle called?

A photon.


What radioactive emission is a particle?

Alpha emission is a 4helium nucleus, which behaves like a particle. Beta emission is an electron, which behaves like a particle. Gamma emission is a photon, which behaves like a particle. Experiments can also be set up to show their wavelike properties (for alpha, beta, and gamma radiation).


Does light behave only like a wave?

No it also behaves like a particle


What two ways do electrons behave?

Any particle, such as an electron, also behaves as a wave (as well as behaving like a particle).


What are the problems with the particle theory?

Electromagnetic radiation sometimes behaves like waves - for example, interference.


What is the smallest representative particle for a compound like H2O?

A molecule.


Whats the smallest unit of a substance that behaves like a substance?

A molecule of the substance. An atom of an element may exhibit different characteristics when it is bound to other atoms of the same element. Examples are common oxygen (O2) and ozone (O3) with altered chemical properties. Or carbon as graphite (hexagonal lattice) and diamond (tetrahedral lattice), which demonstrate very different physical properties.


What is free surface of a liquid behaves like a sheet and tends to contract to the smallest possible area due to the?

This property is the surface tension.


Does light oscillate back and forth between wave and particle like behavior?

No need to oscillate. It always behaves like whichever one your experiment is set up to detect.

An atom of an element or a molecule of a compound.


Which model of light states that light travels in a series of waves?

The wave theory of light is the idea, supported by a number of scientists over the years, that light behaves as waves. It has been superseded by Quantum theory, which says (in part) that light sometimes behaves like a particle and sometimes like a wave.
