What kind of decay is it when a nuclear reaction in which a neutron is transformed into a proton and in electron?
When a neutron -> proton, it is called a Beta - (minus) decay.
What kind of atom has four of each kind of proton electron and notron?
The isotope berrylium-8 has four each of protons, electrons, and neutrons.
What kind of radiation increases the atomic number of the donating atom by one Alpha Beta Gamma or Neutron?
The emission of beta particle increases the atomic number by one unit because one neutron is converted in to proton and beta particle.
What kind of charge does a neutron have?
A neutron does not have a charge -- its neutral
What are atoms and how are atoms put together?
Atoms are the basic building blocks of matter that make up everyday objects. A desk, the air, even you are made up of atoms. There are 90 naturally occurring kinds of atoms. Scientists in labs have been able to make about 25 more. In atom, there are proton with positive charge, neutron with neutral charge (kind of like no charge), and electron with negative charge. proton and neutron join together to make the nucleus of the atom. Than electrons are the one flying around the nucleus. Just think of it like solar system with sun as nucleus and planet as electrons.

When a neutron decays into a proton the electron is emitted from the nucleus what is this kind of radioactivity called?
If an electron is released from the nucleus (and not from an electron shell) then it would have been emitted by a neutron in beta decay. In beta-minus decay, a neutral neutron emits an electron and an anti-neutrino and becomes a proton; in beta-plus decay, a proton emits a positron and a neutrino and becomes a neutron.
What kind of sub-atomic particle does not make up the nucleus of the atom?
The proton and the neutron make up the nucleus, as the electron orbits the nucleus in the electron cloud.
What kind of electrical charge do electrons have?
Neutron is a neutral particle. Proton has one positive charge. Electron has one negative charge.
What kind of particles are found in the nucleus of an atom?
proton neutron
How would an electron react with another electron with a proton?
I think an electron will react maybe kind of together to get in side a bulb but if the proton is there i think it will make there slower.
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. (:
What are electrons in a atom?
In the electron cloud. In the electronic shells which vary from one element to another They surround the nucleus in a cloud-type formation. This can help you during your science mid-term so pay attention!
What kind of electrical do protons electrical charges and neutrons have?
Protons have a positive charge, neutrons have no charge, and electrons have negative charge.Neutrons do not carry an electrical charge:)A proton has a positive charge. Remember, NEUTRon = NEUTRal. Proton = Positive. The electrical charge of a proton is 1.6x10^-19 which is equal and opposite to the electrical charge of an electron which is -1.6x10^-19.
Can neutrons be divided into protons and electrons?
Yes. We can (and do) smash protons. We can slam them into each other or we can slam protons into antiprotons. Big accelerators do this kind of work. The protons will break up, but the things that we get vary as the type of collisions (and the energies) involved in the smashing project. A proton is composed of two up quarks and a down quark, and a neutron is composed of two down quarks and an up quark. The neutron is unstable outside of a nucleus. It has a half-life of a bit under 886 seconds. That's about 14.8 minutes, roughly. When a free neutron decays, it decays into a proton, an electron and an electron antineutrino.
Can annihilation of matter occur between a positron and neutron?
No, a positron cannot react with a neutron in any kind of annihilation reaction. An electron and a positron can, and the same with a neutron and an anti-neutron, but it does not occur between a positron and a neutron.
An atom with 1 proton and 1 neutron?
Yes and no, Hydrogen (naturally 1 proton, 1 electron, 0 neutrons), has an isotope (variation, with a different number neutrons), called Deuterium with 1 proton and one neutron. Deuterium composes less than 0.02% of the worlds Hydrogen.
