What is the difference between an antiproton and an electron?
Hj83g6tr
[An anti-proton is the "dark side" to a proton. An anti-proton is formed when a proton was accelerated and then his something solid, breaking it apart.
An electron is a negatively charged subatomic particle.]
This is somewhat correct, but my understanding is that A proton is a structure of Two Up quarks (uu) and a Down quark (d) and a positron, or anti-electron. an antiproton has the same mass as a proton, and instead is made of two U-Bar Antiquarks and one D-bar antiquark, and an electron. I am not sure if this is completely correct, but if a proton and a antiproton, sometimes called a negiton, are combined they will Annihilate each other, creating a burst of energy. Quantum physics is a wierd science, so I could be very wrong indeed.

What is the anti-matter equivalent of an electron?
No. The antiparticle for the proton is called antiproton. The antiparticle for the electron is called antielectron, also known as positron.
What is the difference between the traditional and electron flow theories of electricity?
Nope
What is the difference between rest mass and effective mass of electron?
mass
What is the driving force for the flow of electron in batteries?
potential difference between electrodes
What is the difference between free electron theory and nearly free electron theory?
free electron model not take into account the potential neither the electron interaction. nearly free electron take into account the potential.J.C. Aguiar
What are the antimatter equivalents of an electron a neutron and a proton?
Positron, antineutron, antiproton
What is a negativily subatomic particle?
A negatively charged subatomic particle is an electron, or the antiproton.
Give you six examples of a subatomic particles?
proton,electron,neutron,antiproton,mesons
Is negatrons a subatomic particle in an atom?
Now the term negatron is not used; in the past was rarely used to name an electron or an antiproton.
What is the difference of a light microscope and a scanning electron microscope?
A light microscope uses visible light to magnify and view specimens, offering lower magnification and resolution compared to a scanning electron microscope (SEM) which uses a focused beam of electrons to image the sample, providing higher magnification and resolution. SEM can produce 3D images of the sample surface while light microscopes typically provide 2D images.
What is the anti-matter equivalent of an electron?
No. The antiparticle for the proton is called antiproton. The antiparticle for the electron is called antielectron, also known as positron.
What is the difference between hydrogen and an electron?
Hydrogen is an element, the electron is a subatomic particle.
Subatomic particle that has a negative electric charge?
It is electron. A proton has positive. think of "P" in proton as "P" in positive. Hope it helped!
Is a proton annihilated when it interacts with an antiproton?
Yes. Both the proton and the antiproton are annihilated; they convert to gamma radiation.Yes. Both the proton and the antiproton are annihilated; they convert to gamma radiation.Yes. Both the proton and the antiproton are annihilated; they convert to gamma radiation.Yes. Both the proton and the antiproton are annihilated; they convert to gamma radiation.
Positrons orbiting antiprotons would make up an atom of?
If you have one antiproton and one anti-electron, you would have an atom of anti-hydrogen.
What is the difference between a proton and a hydrogen ion?
an electron
What is the difference between nucleophiles and electrophiles?
electrophiles are the electron deficient species whereas nucleophiles are the electron rich specie .the other difference is that electrophiles are the electron loving species and nucleophile are electron hating.
