What kind of decay is it when a nuclear reaction in which a neutron is transformed into a proton and in electron?
When a neutron -> proton, it is called a Beta - (minus) decay.
What kind of radioactive decay does carbon 14 go under?
Carbon-14 undergoes beta decay, where a neutron in the carbon-14 nucleus is transformed into a proton, resulting in the emission of a beta particle (an electron) and an antineutrino. This process transforms carbon-14 into nitrogen-14.
What kind of atom has four of each kind of proton electron and notron?
The isotope berrylium-8 has four each of protons, electrons, and neutrons.
What kind of charge does a neutron have?
A neutron does not have a charge -- its neutral
Which atom is the lightest?
Hydrogen is the lightest element. The isotope protium is the lightest kind of hydrogen atom.
What kind of decay is it when a nuclear reaction in which a neutron is transformed into a proton and in electron?
When a neutron -> proton, it is called a Beta - (minus) decay.
When a neutron decays into a proton the electron is emitted from the nucleus what is this kind of radioactivity called?
If an electron is released from the nucleus (and not from an electron shell) then it would have been emitted by a neutron in beta decay. In beta-minus decay, a neutral neutron emits an electron and an anti-neutrino and becomes a proton; in beta-plus decay, a proton emits a positron and a neutrino and becomes a neutron.
What kind of sub-atomic particle does not make up the nucleus of the atom?
The proton and the neutron make up the nucleus, as the electron orbits the nucleus in the electron cloud.
What kind of electrical charge do electrons have?
Neutron is a neutral particle. Proton has one positive charge. Electron has one negative charge.
What kind of particles are found in the nucleus of an atom?
proton neutron
How would an electron react with another electron with a proton?
I think an electron will react maybe kind of together to get in side a bulb but if the proton is there i think it will make there slower.
What are electrons in a atom?
In the electron cloud. In the electronic shells which vary from one element to another They surround the nucleus in a cloud-type formation. This can help you during your science mid-term so pay attention!
What kind of electrical do protons electrical charges and neutrons have?
Protons have a positive charge, neutrons have no charge, and electrons have negative charge.Neutrons do not carry an electrical charge:)A proton has a positive charge. Remember, NEUTRon = NEUTRal. Proton = Positive. The electrical charge of a proton is 1.6x10^-19 which is equal and opposite to the electrical charge of an electron which is -1.6x10^-19.
What kind of nuclear reaction would result in the release of a beta particle?
Beta particle( electron having nuclear origin) is emitted when a neutron decays into a proton by giving out electron. The electron produced escapes as a beta particle leaving proton in the nucleus of atom. 0n1 --> 1p1 + -1e0 ( 1e0 is the emitted beta particle) here subscripts denote charge and superscript denote mass in atomic mass unit(amu). Such neutron decay are shown by some radioactive elements. Usually when the n/p (neutron/proton) ratio is higher than required nuclei emit beta particle. Many examples of this type of decay can be given like: 6c14 --> 7N14 + -1e0 (this carbon isotope is used in carbon dating). 90Th232 + 0n1 --> 90Th232 - -1e0 --> 91Pa233 - -1e0 --> 92U233 (this reaction is used in breeder reactors for production of fissile uranium isotope)
What kind of decay takes place when an isotope loses an electron?
If the isotope loses the electron from its nucleus it is called beta decay. However it did not really lose the electron, as the electron never existed in the nucleus prior to the beta decay event happening. Beta decay that generates an electron happens when a neutron decays into a proton, an electron, and a neutrino: the proton usually remains in the nucleus, while the electron and neutrino (which is nearly impossible to detect, but it is always generated) are ejected from the nucleus at high velocity.If the isotope loses the electron from its electron shells it is not any type of decay, it is simple ionization of the atom.
What kind of charge does an atom with 1 proton in its nucleus and 1 electron outside its nucleus have?
neutral
Can annihilation of matter occur between a positron and neutron?
No, a positron cannot react with a neutron in any kind of annihilation reaction. An electron and a positron can, and the same with a neutron and an anti-neutron, but it does not occur between a positron and a neutron.
