Protons and Neutrons
This is a alpha particle.
An alpha particle is made up of two protons and two neutrons; this is what a helium nucleus is made up of as well.
Used by Rutherford in his experiment made of two protons and two neutrons are alpha particles. Rutherford discovered the nucleus using his gold foil experiment.
an alpha particle is made of two protons and 2 neutrons. its basically the same as the nucleus of a helium atom
it consists of two protons and two neutrons
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 particles are the same size as a helium nucleus and are made up of 2 protons and two neutrons. They have no electrons so an alpha particle has a +2 charge
An alpha particle consists of two protons and two neutrons.
A nucleon is the amount of protons and neutrons. An alpha particle has an atomic number of 2 and a atomic mass of 4 then it has 2 protons and 2 neutrons.There are 4 nucleons in an alpha particle.
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 two protons and two neutrons, this is the same as a helium nucleus.
Alpha radiation is made up of alpha particles, which are helium nuclei consisting of two protons and two neutrons. These particles have a positive charge and are relatively large and heavy compared to other types of radiation.
