When a beta particle is released from an atom does the atom gain or lose mass?
The atom loses mass when a beta particle is released because a neutron decays into a proton, electron, and antineutrino. The mass of the neutron is greater than the combined mass of the resulting proton, electron, and antineutrino.
When an atom loses or gain this type of particle the mass nbr changes?
electrons
When an atom accepts an electron the resulting particle is called what?
a marriage
What particle has to be removed from an atom so the atom becomes positive?
An atom becomes positive when it loses an electron, as electrons are negatively charged particles. When an atom loses an electron, it becomes a positively charged ion.
When an atom loses electron what do molecules do?
When an atom/molecule loses an electron, it is oxidized. The particle develops a positive charge, and thus becomes attractive to particles which have an opposite (negative) charge.
What happens to the atom when an alpha particle is released by it?
When an alpha particle is released by an atom, the atom loses two protons and two neutrons, resulting in a different element being formed. This process is known as alpha decay.
When a beta particle is released from an atom does the atom gain or lose mass?
The atom loses mass when a beta particle is released because a neutron decays into a proton, electron, and antineutrino. The mass of the neutron is greater than the combined mass of the resulting proton, electron, and antineutrino.
What happens to the size of a sodium atom when it loses an electron?
When a sodium atom loses an electron to become a sodium ion, it becomes smaller in size. This is because by losing an electron, the atom loses a negatively charged particle, causing the remaining protons in the nucleus to have a stronger pull on the electrons, resulting in a more compact arrangement.
An atom that gains or loses an electron and is a charged particle?
ionic bond
If a chlorine atom gains or loses a valence electron it becomes a charged particle called an?
Ion. Any atom that loses or gains an electron becomes an ion.
