How many protons does gamma particles have?
Gamma particles do not have any protons. Gamma particles, which are high-energy electromagnetic radiation, do not carry a charge, so they do not have any protons, neutrons, or electrons.
Does Gamma decay change the atomic number?
No, gamma decay does not change the atomic number of an atom. Gamma decay involves the release of high-energy electromagnetic radiation (gamma rays) from the nucleus of an atom, but it does not affect the number of protons in the nucleus, which determines the atomic number.
What type of radioactive decay releases energy from the nucleus without a change of protons neutrons?
This is a gamma-decay.
Which of these types of radioactive decay does not produce an atom of a different element?
All forms of radioactive decay have emissions. Some, however, do not emit alpha, positive or negative beta, or gamma particles, and do not emit protons or neutrons either. In these, which include electron capture and double electron capture, neutrinos are emitted, but these are still considered particles.
How many protons does beryllium?
Beryllium has 4 protons
How many protons does gamma particles have?
Gamma particles do not have any protons. Gamma particles, which are high-energy electromagnetic radiation, do not carry a charge, so they do not have any protons, neutrons, or electrons.
What do gamma rays consist of only electrons pure energy only protons beta particles?
Gamma rays consist of pure energy in the form of electromagnetic radiation. They do not consist of electrons or protons. Beta particles are high-energy electrons or positrons emitted during certain types of radioactive decay, but they are not present in gamma rays.
Does Gamma decay change the atomic number?
No, gamma decay does not change the atomic number of an atom. Gamma decay involves the release of high-energy electromagnetic radiation (gamma rays) from the nucleus of an atom, but it does not affect the number of protons in the nucleus, which determines the atomic number.
What type of radioactive decay releases energy from the nucleus without a change of protons neutrons?
This is a gamma-decay.
How many protons and neutrons in gamma?
Gamma rays are electromagnetic (EM) energy, and they are at the extreme end of the EM spectrum above X-rays. These high energy, high frequency (short wavelength and short period) rays are created by atomic nuclei when atoms change their nuclear structure through radioactive (or nuclear) decay or when changing from a high energy state to a lower one. As gamma rays are produced in nuclear activity of some sort, if might be argued that neutrons and protons in the nucleus of an atom that is undergoing some sort of nuclear change are the ones responsible for gamma rays. The electrons in an atom are in the electron cloud, and they are not involved with the release of gamma rays.
How do protons become antiprotons?
They don't. Proton-antiproton pairs are produced from high energy gamma ray photons.
How or where is gamma radiation formed?
In the atomic nucleus as protons and/or neutrons fall from excited states towards their ground state.
Do alpha particle same group with gamma ray?
Alpha particles are in the same group with gamma rays. Gamma rays helps remove all of the excise energy in a nucleus. Alpha particles consist of two protons and two neutrons that are bound together.
What effect does losing a gamma ray have on the nucleus?
Losing a gamma ray does not change the number of protons or neutrons in the nucleus, so the nucleus remains the same element. However, the nucleus may be left in an excited state after emitting a gamma ray, and it typically returns to its ground state quickly by emitting the gamma ray.
Which of these types of radioactive decay does not produce an atom of a different element?

In these, which include electron capture and double electron capture, neutrinos are emitted, but these are still considered particles.
How many protons are in a gamma radiation?
None. An alpha particle, i.e. a helium nucleus, is the only radiation which contains protons. It is impermeable to skin, so is a health threat only if you inhale it. Radon is an alpha emitter, which is why it is so nasty to breath. Gamma radiation is high-frequency electromagnetic radiation and is highly mutagenic, i.e. it damages DNA which can lead to the development of cancer. For practical purposes, it is synonymous with an x-ray: each occupy the same portion on the right (high frequency) side of the spectrum. The principal distinction is that Gamma radiation originates from an atomic nucleus.
How many protons is in osimum?
Osmium has as many protons as it needs
