Ne is the atomic symbol for Neon. Neon has an atomic number of 10 - which also tells you that it has 10 protons and 10 electrons. The number of neutrons varies with the isotope. The most common isotopes are
20Ne
,21Ne
, and22Ne
- in other words, Neon with 20-10 = 10 neutrons, 21-10 = 11 neutrons, and 22 - 10 = 12 neutrons. By far the most common isotope is20Ne which represents about 90.5% of all the Neon isotopes.
A beta particle is typically an electron that is emitted during beta decay. This electron has a charge of -1 and a mass of approximately 1/1836 amu.
The correct order is c) Alpha particle, beta particle, gamma ray. Alpha particles have the greatest mass, followed by beta particles, and then gamma rays which have no mass.
In unstable neuclei where there are 'too many' neutrons, a neutron will convert to a proton and an electron - that electron is ejected from the nucleus and is called a beta particle. It is important that we call this electron a beta particle because it is derived by radioactive disintegration in the nucleus and not an 'orbital' electron.
because the control of neucles on different electrons is different and we know that beta rays are infact electrons then we can say that the speed of beta rays emitted by the same element is different
it is electrons
A beta ray consists of high-energy electrons or positrons emitted during the radioactive decay of certain isotopes. The composition of a beta ray includes these particles as well as neutrinos or antineutrinos emitted along with the electrons or positrons.
Beta rays are electrons, not electromagnetic.
Beta particles can be electrons (beta-) or positrons (beta+), along with electron antineutrinos (beta-) or electron neutrinos (beta+). Cathode ray particles are just electrons. Since neutrinos have no charge, they do not interact well with matter. As a result, the electrons from beta- decay are nearly indistinguishable from the electrons in cathode rays, with the possible exception of their velocity.
Electrons are not directly involved in the creation of alpha, beta, or gamma radiation. Alpha radiation consists of helium nuclei (2 protons and 2 neutrons), beta radiation is made of electrons (beta-minus) or positrons (beta-plus), and gamma radiation is a high-energy electromagnetic radiation.
None. A beta particle consists of a single electrons or positron.
No. But beta particles can either be electrons, or anti-electrons.
In beta radiation, an emission of electrons can occur due to beta decay. A neutron can disintegrate into protons and electrons.
c. beta ray
A beta particle is typically an electron that is emitted during beta decay. This electron has a charge of -1 and a mass of approximately 1/1836 amu.
There are 3 different types of radioactive decay. alpha decay, beta decay and gamma decay. alpha decay is composed of a helium nuclei, beta decay emit either electrons or positrons, and finally gamma decay in which high energy "rays" of photons. A positron is a positively charged electron (antimatter twin of the electron). See the natural decay series of U-238 and others to see which daughters emit beta to alpha or gamma. there is also the neutrino. I cant say we really know that much about it but basically it helps satisfy the law of conservation.
Beta particle electrons (as opposed to Beta particle positrons which have + charge)
The correct order is c) Alpha particle, beta particle, gamma ray. Alpha particles have the greatest mass, followed by beta particles, and then gamma rays which have no mass.
