It depends on it's initial energy, but in practise no more than about 20 feet in air. It can be stopped by a few mm of aluminium though.

Radiation consisting of a single electron?
beta radiation!
Is Alpha Beta or gamma made from electrons?
Beta radiation is made from electrons (or positrons for inverse beta radiation). Alpha radiation is a helium nucleus, and gamma radiation is a high energy electromagnetic ray.
Does beta radiation have a helium nuleus?
A stream of helium nuclei is alpha radiation. Beta radiation is a stream of electrons.
Does beta have a helium nucleus?
Beta radiation does not have a helium nucleus.Alpha radiation, however, does have a helium nucleus.
What type of radiation is composed of electrons?
Beta radiation
What is the range of radiations alpha beta and gamma?
Please see link or similar for discussion of radiation.
Radiation consisting of a single electron?

Which form of radiation is the same as an electron?
Beta minus radiation is a stream of electrons.
Is Alpha Beta or gamma made from electrons?

Does beta have a helium nucleus?
Beta radiation does not have a helium nucleus.Alpha radiation, however, does have a helium nucleus.
Why is beta radiation used to measure beta radiation?
Because its attenuation is proportional to thickness being penetrated
Is beta radiation a type of nuclear radiation?
Yes
What type of radiation is composed of electrons?
Beta radiation
What radiation can be stopped by a piece of metal foil?
The radiation of an electron is Radiolectonoil. -Professor Lyle
Does beta radiation results in the emission of electrons?
In beta radiation, an emission of electrons can occur due to beta decay. A neutron can disintegrate into protons and electrons.
What would you need to protect yourself from beta radiation?
Normal clothing will protect you from typical energy beta radiation.
