One part of a beta- particle. The other part is an electron antineutrino
What else can I help you with?
What is a fast moving electron given off by a nucleus during radioactive decay and has a negative chare?
its called a beta particle, but its an electron
Which of the following particles has the same mass as an electron but a positive charge and is sometimes emitted from the nucleus during radioactive decay?
The particle that has the same mass as an electron (9.11 x 10^-31 kg) but a positive charge and is sometimes emitted from the nucleus during radioactive decay is a positron. A positron is the antimatter counterpart to an electron and has a charge of +1.
Is a delta particle a fast moving electron given off by a nucleus during radioactive decay?
No, a delta particle is not a fast moving electron given off by a nucleus during radioactive decay. The electron described here is a beta particle, and specifically a beta minus particle. It is given off in (no surprise) beta minus decay. A link to a related question can be found below.
A negative charged particle emitted during radioactive decay?
The negative charged particle emitted during radioactive decay is called a beta particle. It is essentially an electron that is released from the nucleus of the atom undergoing decay in order to conserve charge. Beta decay occurs when a neutron in the nucleus is transformed into a proton, releasing a beta particle and an antineutrino.
What particles has the same mass as an electron but a positive charge and is sometimes emitted from the nucleus during radioactive decay?
A positron is a particle with the same mass as an electron but a positive charge. It is the antimatter counterpart of an electron and can be emitted from the nucleus during some types of radioactive decay processes, such as beta plus decay.
What represents a beta particle?
0/-1 e
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.
Is a beta particle a helium nucleus or an electron?
A beta particle is a high energy electron. An alpha particle is a helium nucleus. A gamma ray is a high energy photon.
What atomic particle do a beta particle resembles?
A beta particle is a negative electron. A positive electron is a Positron.
Which form of radiation is the same as an electron?
Beta minus radiation is a stream of electrons.
What is a beta partical?
A Beta Particle is a high energy electron that comes from the nucleus, not from the electron cloud. However, the nucleus contains only protons and neutrons. During this kind of transmutation, a neutron becomes unstable and splits into an electron and a proton. The electron, or beta particle, is released with a large amount of energy. The proton however, remains in the nucleus.P.S. I got this information out of my Science text book. (:
A beta particle may be spontaneously emitted from?
the nucleus of an atom undergoing radioactive decay, typically from elements that are not stable due to an imbalance of protons and neutrons. This emission helps the atom achieve a more stable nuclear configuration by transforming a neutron into a proton, electron, and antineutrino.
