Is an electron radiation?
Electrons are negative energy. When an electron jumps orbitals, it can either absorb or radiate energy in the form of photons.
Is beta the same kind of radiation as alpha but does not have particles?
No Alpha radiation is essentially a helium nucleus - a couple of protons and neutrons bound together as a particle Beta radiation is an electron or positron - still a particle but not the same kind of particle as alpha.
What is the radiation used in an electron microscope?
70.44
How is it possible for a single electron to produce so many different wavelengths and frequencies?
A single electron can produce different types of radiation. Radiation, frequency, and wavelength all rely on each other. If an electron can produce multiple types of radiation, it can also produce different wavelengths and frequencies, because the wavelengths and frequencies are dependent on the radiation type.
What is an electron called that is produced when neutron decays?
It is still called an "electron".On the other hand, an electron that results from radioactive decay is also known as "beta radiation"; but please note that "beta radiation" may also refer to an antielectron.
A single electron consists of what form of radiation?
Gamma Radiation
How can radiation have an ionizing effect?
Radiation can excite an electron sufficiently for the electron to leave the atom, thus having an ionizing effect.
What is a fast moving electron that is given off as a nuclear radiation?
Beta radioactivity radiation.

What are positive electrons in science?
A positive electron is called a positron and it is a form of antimatter. It has the same mass and typical properties as a normal electron, but it has the opposite charge.
The elements Li and F combine to form an ionic compound The electron configurations in this compound are the same as the electron configurations of atoms in which group?
Group 18
What is A fast moving electron that is given off as nuclear radiation?
Beta
Does H and HE have the same valence electron configuration?
Hydrogen and helium have different valence electron configurations. Hydrogen has one valence electron, and helium has two valence electrons. However, hydrogen does typically form covalent bonds in which it shares an electron, and thereby gains an effective electron configuration of two, like helium. Hydrogen also can form the H+ ion which has no electrons.
Is light the same thing as electromagnetic radiation?
Yes, visible light makes up the middle region of the Electromagnetic spectrum. Therefore, light is a form electromagnetic radiation.
What form of radiation is released from the star?
Infrared radiation.
What form of radiation can be shielded by the earth's atmosphere?
The form of radiation shielded by atmosphere is Ultraviolet. The Ultraviolet is a part of radiation released by our star sun.
When radiation is absorbed by a hydrogen electron the hydrogen atom changes its ground state to?
an atom
