A beta particle has an electric charge of -1 because beta particles are both lightweight and fast moving, they have a greater penetrating power than alpha particles.
neutral charge. this is because a beta decay gains a proton and loses a neutron.
The negative charged particle emitted during radioactive decay is called a beta particle. It is essentially an electron that is released from the nucleus of the atom undergoing decay in order to conserve charge. Beta decay occurs when a neutron in the nucleus is transformed into a proton, releasing a beta particle and an antineutrino.

A beta particle is an electron, and electrons are negative. You're probably thinking of a positron, which has the same mass as an electron but the opposite charge.
An atomic particle with a negative charge is called an electron.
The difference between a beta plus and beta minus particle is the electrical charge. The charges are equal, but opposite. The beta minus particle is an electron with a negative charge, while the beta plus particle is an anti-electron or positron with a positive charge.
negative, -1 to be precise since a beta particle is an electron
A beta charge refers to the charge carried by a beta particle, which can be either a beta minus (electron) with a charge of -1 or a beta plus (positron) with a charge of +1. Beta decay is a type of radioactive decay process involving the emission of beta particles.
Beta particles can have a positive or negative charge. In beta-minus decay, a neutron turns into a proton, emitting a beta-minus particle (electron) with a negative charge. In beta-plus decay, a proton transforms into a neutron, releasing a beta-plus particle (positron) with a positive charge.
Beta rays do not have a negative charge. Beta particles (electrons or positrons) emitted during beta decay can have a negative or positive charge, depending on whether it is an electron or a positron. The negative charge is carried by the electron beta particle.
The charge associated with beta decay is either a positive or negative charge, depending on whether a beta particle is emitted (negative charge) or a positron is emitted (positive charge).
Beta Particles have a negative charge,In Beta decay a neutron changes into a proton and a beta particle, an electron.
Yes, a beta particle is either an electron or a positron. In beta decay, an electron is emitted (beta-minus decay), which has a negative charge, while a positron is emitted in beta-plus decay, which has a positive charge.
Neutrons are particles of no charge. Electrons have negative charge.
A beta particle is an electron, and electrons are negative. You're probably thinking of a positron, which has the same mass as an electron but the opposite charge.
e- is the symbol for an electron, aka a beta particle. It has a unit negative charge.
neutral charge. this is because a beta decay gains a proton and loses a neutron.
