Protons and neutrons reside within the nucleus, electrons orbit around the nucleus.
What else can I help you with?
What the location of the subatomic?
sub-atomic particles are within the atom (and remember, atoms are everywhere): the electron, proton and neutron are all sub-atomic particles, but there are even smaller particles (and anti-particles) called quarks that make up the proton, neutron and electron.
Which particle has the least mass within an atom?
The three particles that make up an atom are protons, neutrons and electrons. Protons and neutrons both have a mass of 1 unit, whereas the mass of an electron is 1/1837 of that of a proton or a neutron. Therefore, the electron has the least mass as its mass is considered negligible.
In beta-minus decay is it the appearance of an electron that makes the neutron and proton balance each other or a dynamic force of neutron and proton that produces the electron?
It is a confusing subject and it gets worse the more you get into it! Basically, in beta-minus decay, a neutron changes into a proton within the nucleus, and an electron and a neutrino are emitted. This is put down to the weak nuclear force. The theory goes that a down quark in the neutron changes to an up quark by emitting a W boson which then becomes an electron and a neutrino, whilst the neutron becomes a proton. That said, I am not sure what you mean by 'neutron and proton balancing each other', as the reaction is more like your second proposition. The isotope in question then becomes the element with an atomic number one higher than the original, because now it has an extra proton, though its atomic weight is almost the same.
What decay occurs when a nucleus emits an electron in the process of a proton decaying into a neutron?
The decay process you are referring to is called beta-plus decay, also known as positron emission. In this process, a proton within the nucleus transforms into a neutron by emitting a positron (anti-electron) and an electron neutrino. This results in a decrease of one in the atomic number of the nucleus while the mass number remains constant.
What are the changes on each subatomic particle?
Do you mean Charges? There is the Proton which has a positive or + charge. An electron which has a negative or - charge. And a nuetron that has no charge. There are other sub-subatomic particles i don't think they have charges though.... not sure on that one.
What is the location of subatomic particles?
sub-atomic particles are within the atom (and remember, atoms are everywhere): the electron, proton and neutron are all sub-atomic particles, but there are even smaller particles (and anti-particles) called quarks that make up the proton, neutron and electron.
How many elemental particles are contained within a proton or a neutron?
6
Does chromium-51 give off weak alpha particles?
No, chromium-51 undergoes β− decay, where a neutron within its nucleus is transformed into a proton, emitting an electron (beta particle) and an antineutrino.
The beta emission process results in the daughter nucleus differing in what manner from the parent?
The daughter nucleus in beta emission differs from the parent by having one more proton and one less neutron. This change results in the transformation of a neutron within the nucleus into a proton, accompanied by the emission of an electron (beta particle) and an antineutrino.
How many electrons in hydrogen are in the nucleus?
No electrons are in the nucleus. the nucleus consists of a proton for normal hydrogen, a proton and neutron for deuterium and a proton and two neutrons for tritium. Deuterium and tritium are isotopes of hydrogen.
Which is not an example of an electrostatic force that exists within the atom?
The gravitational force is not an example of an electrostatic force that exists within the atom. The electrostatic forces within an atom include the forces between protons and electrons, and the forces holding the nucleus together.
A subatomic particles that has a positive charge and tha is located in the nucleus of an atom.?
Proton has positive charge and is in nucleus of an atom. Neutron has zero charge and is also found in nucleus of an atom. Electron has negative charge and is found in cloud around the nucleus (electron cloud).
