What else can I help you with?
Does an electron or proton have a larger charge?
No. The electron and proton have the same amount of charge. Its just that the electron's charge is negative and the proton's charge is positive.
Can a neutron turn a proton into a electron?
No, a neutron cannot turn a proton into an electron. However, a neutron can decay into a proton, an electron, and an antineutrino through a process called beta decay. In this process, the neutron transforms into a proton while emitting an electron and an antineutrino. Thus, while a neutron is involved in the transformation of a proton, it does not directly turn a proton into an electron.
Which has a greater mass an electron or a proton?
In kilograms, an electron's mass is ~9 x 10^(-31). A proton's mass is ~1.7 x 10^(-27). The mass of the proton is more than 1000 times of an electron.
What is a proton in the nucleus converted into what during electron capture?
During electron capture, an electron and proton combine and are converted to a neutron.
Are neutrons in the atoms of different elements alike?
All neutrons are alike. As the name suggests , they are neutrally charged particles in the nucleus of an atom. They carry the same mass as a proton. They are found in the nucleus of an atoms together with the protons. However, atoms of a given element are isotopes of one another, if they have a different number of neutrons. e.g. Hydrogen , exhibits three isotopes. #1 protium ; 1 proton, 0 neutrons, 1 electron.( commonest isotope) #2 deuterium ; 1 proton, 1 neutron, 1 electron. ( heavy hydrogen) #3 tritium ; 1 proton, 2 neutrons, 1 electron. ( super heavy hydrogen and radio -active). Note in this table the number of neutrons in each isotope. The next element in the Periodic Table is Helium #1 helium ; 2 proton, 2 neutrons, 2 electron. Note the same number of neutrons as tritium , but now has two protons. A Neutron, in nuclear physics, can disintegrate to form a proton and an electron.
What are three subatomic paarticles in an atom?
Neutron, proton, electron.Neutron, proton, electron.Neutron, proton, electron.Neutron, proton, electron.
How big is a electron compared to a proton?
A proton is bigger than electron
How big is a proton compared to a electron?
A proton is bigger than electron
How electron is converted into proton?
An electron will not decay into a proton by any means.
Does an electron or proton have a larger charge?
No. The electron and proton have the same amount of charge. Its just that the electron's charge is negative and the proton's charge is positive.
What is the difference in the amount of charges in a proton and electron?
A proton and an electron have exactly opposite charges. If you take the charge of a proton as +1, then an electron has a charge of -1.
How do you charge an atom?
remove either a proton or electron OR add a proton or electron...
Is a proton larger or smaller than electron?
An electron is 1/1,836 of a proton.

What is a proton in the nucleus converted into what during electron capture?
During electron capture, an electron and proton combine and are converted to a neutron.
How many times lighter is an electron than a proton?
The mass of an electron is approximately 1⁄1836 of a proton. Thus as hydrogen is made of one proton and one electron, hydrogen is 1837 times heavier than an electron.
