An alpha particle is made of 2 protons and 2 neutrons if that's what you mean


Name of process when protons and neutrons react during nuclear fusion?

The process when protons and neutrons react during nuclear fusion is called nucleosynthesis. This is the process by which new atomic nuclei are formed from existing protons and neutrons.


Protons and neutrons are found in this part of an atom?

Protons and neutrons are found in the nucleus of an atom. These subatomic particles "bond" together during fusion to create the nucleus.


Particle with two protons and two neutrons ejected during decay?

An alpha particle. It is also a helium nucleus and has a charge of +2e. The ejection of an alpha particle occurs whenever the electromagnetic force overcomes the strong force in a nucleus and needs to rid itself of excess charge. The reason that a single proton is not simply ejected has to do with the stability of the alpha particle itself which is generated by the strong force. If there were more protons in an alpha particle, it would not hold together properly. It cannot have more neutrons because it simply wouldn't be ejected because of strong force.


Was it 1 second after the big bang that protons and neutrons formed?

Yes, it was during the Hadron Epoch.


What element has 12 alpha particles and 4 neutrons?

Mathematically it is Chromium 24Cr52 but within nucleus alpha particles separately do not exist they are only produced during radioactive disintegration.


What element will result if two protons and two neutrons are ejected from a uranium nucleus?

If two protons and two neutrons are removed from a uranium nucleus, the new element is thorium. The isotope cannot be determined because the identity of the uranium isotope was not given.


What do alpha particles contain?

They are Helium nucleii so basically 2 protons and 2 neutrons


Does alpha decay always decreases the number of protons by an even number?

Yes, an alpha radiation particle is 2 protons and 2 neutrons so for every alpha particle emitted the radioactive nuclide loses 2 protons.


An alpha particle is identical to a?

An alpha particle is a helium-4 nucleus. It has two protons and two neutrons, and we write it like this: 24He++ or more commonly 24He2+ Some links can be found below.
