What radiation releases a helium particle?

Alpha radiation is essentially a Helium nucleus (not the whole atom, apha particles don't have electrons on them). An alpha particle is just two protons and two neutrons and as a result they also have a relative charge of +2.


What particle consists of two protons and two neutrons it is the same as a helium nucleus release of a what particle by an atom decreases the atomic number by 2 and the mass number by 4?

The particle that consists of two protons and two neutrons, equivalent to a helium nucleus, is an alpha particle. When an atom releases an alpha particle, its atomic number decreases by 2 and its mass number decreases by 4.


The nuclear fusion of a helium-3 nucleus and nuclide X releases an alpha particle and a positron Identify nuclide X?

The nuclide X would be tritium (hydrogen-3). In the described fusion process, a helium-3 nucleus and tritium combine to form a stable helium-4 nucleus along with the release of an alpha particle (helium-4 nucleus) and a positron.


What is an alpha particle equivilent to?

An alpha particle is equivalent to a helium-4 nucleus, or a helium-4 ion. A difference is that an alpha particle has a certain amount of energy associated with it, so it can said to be fast or hot. The energy is measured in thousands or millions of electron volts (keV or MeV).


What radioactive particle is the size of a helium nucleus?

alpha particle


What element has atomic structure similar to an alpha particle?

The element with atomic structure similar to an alpha particle is helium. An alpha particle consists of two protons and two neutrons, the same as the nucleus of a helium atom.


What happens to the atomic number when the nucleus releases a beta particle?

When the nucleus releases a beta minus particle the atomic number increase with 1.When the nucleus releases a beta plus particle the atomic number decrease with 1.


Why is an alpha particle sometimes referred to as a helium nucleus?

An alpha particle is made up of two protons and two neutrons; this is what a helium nucleus is made up of as well.


The nucleus of a helium atom is called?
