A beta particle is a what created and emitted from an unstable nucleus?
A beta particle is an electron or a positron emitted from an unstable nucleus during beta decay. Beta decay occurs when a neutron in the nucleus changes into a proton and emits either an electron (beta minus decay) or a positron (beta plus decay) to achieve a more stable configuration.
In a beta particle emission what does the neutron split into?
In beta particle emission, a neutron in the nucleus converts into a proton, an electron (beta particle), and an antineutrino.
What will happen to an atom is an beta particles emits or adds?
The beta particle will alter the electromagnetic field of the atom. An electron will add to the electromagnetic charge if emitted, and subtract from, if it is absorbed. A positron will do the opposite. The atomic nucleus will also change. an electron can convert a neutron to a proton if emitted, and a proton to a neutron if absorbed. The positron, again, will do the opposite.
Which particle will have the same mass proton and electron proton and neutron electron and neutron or all three particles?
The masses of all three particles are different The masses of a proton and the mass of a neutron are very close, however. The mass of an electron is much smaller than the mass of a proton or neutron.
What subatomic particle has the longest wave length a neutron proton electron or alpha particle?
energy
How is a beta particle produced?
A beta particle is produced in a process called beta decay, in which a neutron becomes a proton or vise versa. There are two forms of beta decay:normal beta decay - a neutron becomes a proton, a beta particle (i.e. electron) and an antineutrinoantibeta decay - a proton becomes a neutron, an antibeta particle (i.e. positron) and a neutrino

What are the antimatter equivalents of an electron a neutron and a proton?
Positron, antineutron, antiproton
What is a type of radioactive decay that involves emission from the nucleus of a high speed antimatter particle that is a counterpart of the electron?
This is beta decay, specifically beta plus decay. The beta particle that appears is the positron, which is the antimatter particle of the electron. Links can be found below for more information.
Which has the most mass an electron proton or a neutron?
This particle is the neutron.

The beta particle will alter the electromagnetic field of the atom. An electron will add to the electromagnetic charge if emitted, and subtract from, if it is absorbed. A positron will do the opposite. The atomic nucleus will also change. an electron can convert a neutron to a proton if emitted, and a proton to a neutron if absorbed.

Which has the smaller mass a particle an electron a neutron or a proton?
Electron!
What will NOT produce a track of condensed vapour in a cloud chamber electron neutron positron proton?
The neutron will not produce a track in the cloud chamber. The neutron, proton, electron and positron are all types of particulate (particle) radiation, and all can do damage, but the neutron interacts much less with the air in a cloud chamber than the other particles will. This means the other particles will leave a tidy little ionized trail behind them on which condensate can form to "paint" the path of the particle. And the neutron will not.
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 is the mass and charge of beta particle?
A beta particle is an electron (β-) or a positron (β+). The mass of a beta particle is approximately 9.11 x 10^-31 kilograms for an electron and the same for a positron. The charge of a beta particle is -1 elementary charge for an electron and +1 elementary charge for a positron.
In beta Decay a neutron is converted into a proton and what?
In beta decay, the nucleus of the atom emits an electron. This is a new electron, not one of the electrons in the electron cloud. This does indeed have the effect of changing a neutron into a proton, because total charge has to be conserved - if a new negative thing exists, there has to be a new positive thing too. But the mass has to stay the same too - conveniently, protons and neutrons have almost the same mass.
