The proton is a hadron composed of three quarks; two up quarks and one down quark. It has mass 1.672621777 x 10-27 kg and charge of +1. They are also spin-½ fermions and baryons. Along with the neutrons, they are nucleons, and are a part of the atomic nucleus.
An alpha particle has two protons.
No, an alpha particle is not a type of photon. Alpha particles are composed of two protons and two neutrons, while photons are massless particles of light.
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.

Another word for a particle consisting of two protons and two neutrons is an "alpha particle." Alpha particles are a type of ionizing radiation commonly emitted during the radioactive decay of certain heavy elements.
alpha particle
An alpha particle consists of two protons and two neutrons.
2 protons and 2 neutrons. An alpha particle is the same as a helium nucleus.
The number of protons in an atom determines which element it is (i.e Silver-47 protons vs. Gold-79 protons)
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.
An alpha particle.
