Every subatomic particle has mass, so every particle will cause a slight mass change. However, in an isotope, the mass change between the parent and daughter is caused by a change in the number of neutrons.
When the number of neutrons in the nucleus of an atom changes, the atom is now a different isotope of that element.
The different number of neutrons in the element. They are called isotopes.
The isotopes have different no. of Neutrons.
Yes, a proton is a subatomic particle that carries a charge equal to but opposite to that of an electron. The proton has a positive charge, and the electron has a negative charge.
The 3 sub-atomic particles are electron, proton, and neutron Their masses are electron: 8.5473 x 10-31 kg; proton: 1.67265 x 10-27 kg; neutron: 1.67495 x 10-27 kg.
three different masses.
Atoms of the same element that have different masses are called isotopes of the element. The presence of different numbers of neutrons in the nucleus is responsible for the existence of isotopes of an element.
The Standard Model of Particle Physics gives a good list of particles and their masses.
protons and neutrons are about 1 amu
If you mean subatomic particle as in protons neutrons and electrons, electrons have the lowest mass. If you are talking even smaller, leptons have extremely tiny rest masses.
They have different masses, electrical charge, dimensions, life time, spin etc.
They have different masses, electrical charge, dimensions, life time, spin etc.
an alpha particle
Alpha Particle
You may be referring to neutrons, protons and electrons. The neutron is heavier than the proton, but the difference is more like two electrons than one.
air masses with different characteristics such as temperature and humidity do not usually mix. so when two different air masses meet a boundary forms between them.
The neutron and the proton have masses close to 1 amu.
That is the correct spelling of the plural noun "particles" (dust, or subatomic masses).
Protons and Neutrons compose the nucleus of an atom. Protons and nutrons weight combine to give the mass of the atom. In most atoms, the amount of Neutrons is equivalent to the amount of Protons.
The alpha particle basically has the mass of a helium atom, since it is a helium nucleus. The beta particle has the mass of an electron - a beta particle is either an electron or an anti-electron. The gamma ray has no rest mass, since it moves at the speed of light. However, it can have a fairly high energy, and therefore an associated mass. The mass varies in this case; that is, gamma rays can have different energies, and therefore different masses.
