Four. Two protons and two neutrons.
The atomic particles that make up an alpha are two protons and two neutrons. The subatomic particles are contained within the neutrons & protons and there are too many to list here, plus I don't know all of them.
4 alpha particles were emitted. This is known by the fact that an alpha particle ,on being given out, decrease the mass number of the element by 4.Hence the decrease in mass number in above question is 12 which itself states the answer that 4 alpha particles are emitted. The number of beta particles emitted are 3 beta particle have been emitted.
The average amount of neutrons in phosphorus is 16 but may vary with different isotopes
An average phosphorus atom has 15 protons and 16 neutrons, and it has 31 nucleons.
24, it's the number of protons and neutrons, i.e. the number of sub-atomic particles in the nucleus.
None. A beta particle consists of a single electrons or positron.
The "11" refers, precisely, to the number of nucleons.
An alpha particle has approximately 4 times the mass of a proton.
You will have to tell us what the particle is, but if it is an alpha particle, there are two neutrons in it.
+2 unit charges - the alpha particle is a helium nucleus.
The atomic particles that make up an alpha are two protons and two neutrons. The subatomic particles are contained within the neutrons & protons and there are too many to list here, plus I don't know all of them.
An alpha particle is a helium nucleus, which consists of 2 protons and 2 neutrons. When an unstable nucleus emits an alpha particle, it loses 2 protons, which means its atomic number will be reduced by 2.
Naturally occuring Radon gas decays by alpha particle emission. However, many of the decay chain products have very short half lives, of which some decay by alpha particle emission and others by beta particle emission.
There are A + Z nucleons in an element
Beryllium-9 has 9 nucleons.
The alpha particle does not have any electrons. This particle is ejected from the nucleus of an atom in what is called alpha decay, and it appears as a pair of protons and a pair of neutrons fused together. The alpha particle is a helium-4 nucleus, and soon after it appears, it will collect a pair of electrons from its environment. But as it appears in the radioactive decay process, it doesn't have any electrons.
2 of each in the form of an alpha particle.
