This would be the alpha particle. An alpha particle has two neutrons and two protons, and it's actually a helium-4 nucleus. That's why we write this particle like this: 42He or He+2 Use the links below for more information.

Which particle is emitted from a hydrogen-3 nucleus when it undergoes radioactive decay?
beta, aka an electron.
A beta particle may be spontaneously emitted from?
Positrons are emitted from proton-rich radioactive during positive beta-decay.
What atomic particle do a beta particle resembles?
A beta particle is a negative electron. A positive electron is a Positron.
An alpha particle has the same structure as which nucleus?
The radioactive alpha particle has the same structure as the atomic nucleus of helium. They are usually formed and emitted during alpha decay.
What kind of decay results in the formation of a different element?
both top and bottomAlpha decay is a kind of radioactive decay in which an alpha particle is emitted from an atom. An alpha particle consists of two protons and two neutrons. Therefore, when an atom of an element undergoes alpha decay, it loses two protons, which changes the atom from one element to another. This is because each different element is identified by the number of protons in its nuclei.or to be more blunt without all the detail radioactive
A beta particle is formed in the nucleus of an isotope due to the?
Radioactive decay; beta decay is a type of radioactive decay in which a beta particle (an electron or a positron) is emitted
Does alpha decay always decreases the number of protons by an even number?
Yes, an alpha radiation particle is 2 protons and 2 neutrons so for every alpha particle emitted the radioactive nuclide loses 2 protons.
A atom with a altered number of neutrons?
Two atoms with the same # of protons & electrons but different # of neutrons are called isotopes, which is what I assume you want. If the number of neutrons changes, and # protons increases, then there is a Beta - particle emitted. If # of protons decreases, then an alpha particle is emitted.
What particle is emitted when lead-214 21482Pb undergoes natural radioactive decay to bismuth-214 21483Bi?
An alpha particle, 42He
A negative charged particle emitted during radioactive decay?
An electron during beta decay.
Which particle is emitted from a hydrogen-3 nucleus when it undergoes radioactive decay?
beta, aka an electron.
A beta particle may be spontaneously emitted from?
Positrons are emitted from proton-rich radioactive during positive beta-decay.
What happens when U-235emits a beta particle?
U-235 emits beta particles as part of typical radioactive decay. When a beta particle is emitted, an electron is emitted and a neutron is converted into a proton.
Nucleus of the chemical element atomic number 2 emitted by some radioactive substances?
alpha particle, He nucleus
When potassium-39 is bombarded by neutrons chlorine-36 is produced what other particles are emitted?
An Alpha particle
What atomic particle do a beta particle resembles?
A beta particle is a negative electron. A positive electron is a Positron.
What nuclear particle has a charge of 2?
No nuclear particle has a relative mass of 4. However, the alpha particle which is emitted by one of the radioactive iodine isotopes, has a relative mass of 4. An alpha particle is emitted from the nucleus but not referred to as a nuclear particle because it is made up of 4 nuclear particles - 2 neutrons and 2 protons.
