What particles has the same mass as an electron but a positive charge and is sometimes emitted from the nucleus during radioactive decay?
Protons are rarely emitted, but a decay mode called positron decay is very common. The positron is the antiparticle of the electron and is exactly the same mass as the electron. It has charge +e.
What is the charge of the atoms nucleus?
The net charge of the nucleus is positive because the electrons (e-) are not in the nucleus there are around it in the outer shells.
What are the charges of subatomic particles and their locations in the atom?
There are 3 subatomic particles in the atom. The photon has a positive charge and is found in the nucleus. The neutron has no charge and is found in the nucleus. The electron has a negative charge and is on the outside of the nucleus moving around the nucleus.
The is the particle in the nucleus with a positive charge?
The nucleus of an atom has a positive charge. This is because the nucleus contains both protons, which have a positive charge, and neutrons, which have no charge. The electrons, which have a negative charge are found in the electron cloud surrounding the nucleus.
What is the charge of just the nucleus of an atom?
The nucleus of an atom carries a positive charge. The negatively charged electrons orbiting the nucleus more or less balances out the positive charge.
What is a helium nucleus emitted from the nucleus of a decaying isotope and represented by He with a 2 plus charge?
It is called an alpha particle.
What is the energy in the nucleus of an atom?
the nucleus is composed of protons and neutrons so the energy of the atoms necleus is allways a positive charge since their are only electrons present on the outside of the atom. Neutrons have no charge and do not contribute to the energy of the nucleus
What would have been the charge of the new nucleus formed if the beta particle had been a positron?
When a positron is emitted a proton is converted into a neutron. Therefore the new nucleus will have a positive charge that is one less than its previous charge.
Which of the following particles has the same mass as an electron but a positive charge and is sometimes emitted from the nucleus during radioactive decay?
A positron.
Which particle in a necleus lacks a charge?
i think its an neutron....... if not its an electron.......
What particles has the same mass as an electron but a positive charge and is sometimes emitted from the nucleus during radioactive decay?
Protons are rarely emitted, but a decay mode called positron decay is very common. The positron is the antiparticle of the electron and is exactly the same mass as the electron. It has charge +e.
What is an electron or particle similar to an electron emitted from the nucleus with negligible mass and a charge of -1?
In this context, we call an electron a beta particle.
What is the charge of the nucleus of every atom?
The nucleus of every atom has positive charge because protons and neutrons of those atoms have positive charge..PROTON which has positive charge is residing IN the nucleus,an ELECTRON, which has negative charge is to be 'found' around the nucleus in a socalled shell.
What is the charge of the atoms nucleus?
The net charge of the nucleus is positive because the electrons (e-) are not in the nucleus there are around it in the outer shells.
What charge does the nucleus of an atom hold?
The charge of any Nucleus is Neutral.
What is the charge of the nucleus of atoms?
Because protons have a positive charge and neutrons have no charge, the atomic nucleus has a positive charge.
Is charge of a baryon conserved when it undergoes beta decay?
Total charge is always conserved. If an electron is emitted, the remaining particle's charge will change by +1. If a positron is emitted, the remaining particle's charge will change by -1.
