An alpha particle is a helium nucleus. So, it contains 2 protons and 2 neutrons.
There are 2 neutron in an alpha particle.
The alpha particle is much more massive than a beta particle. A beta particle is an electron, which has very little mass. An alpha particle is a helium nucleus, and consists of two protons and two neutrons.
Alpha Particle
The nucleus of a helium atom is called an alpha particle. The electromagnetic waves emitted by a nucleus are called gamma rays.
Yes, the alpha particle is nonfundamental.
Alpha is a particle not a wave. Alpha particle are positively charged helium nuclei and have a +2 charge and 4u mass.
An alpha particle is a helium nucleus; it has a charge of +2.
An alpha particle has the charge 2+ and the mass 4.
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.
An alpha particle is identical to the nucleus of Helium atom
The charge of an alpha particle is 2+ and the symbol is α2+.
The electric charge of an alpha particle is positive. An alpha particle is a helium nucleus (which being a nucleus has a positive charge)
