What is subatomic particles with a positive charge?

protonpositron - antielectron


What is the particle which is opposite in charge to the electron?

The particle that has the opposite charge of an electron is the proton. The electron has a charge of -1 while the proton has a charge of +1. (Though they have equal - but opposite - charges, the proton is about 1836 times more massive than the electron.) It might be worth mentioning that the antiparticle of the electron, the positron, also has a charge of +1. And it (the positron or antielectron) has a mass identical to the electron's. (An antielectron, the positron, will combine with an electron when the pair are at low energy in an annhilation event. Both particles will have their masses converted into energy.)


What is the electric charge of a electron?

The electric charge of an electron is -1.602 x 10^-19 coulombs. This negative charge is equal in magnitude but opposite in sign to the charge of a proton.


What is the electric charge of an object which is described as neutral?

What is the charge of a positron in coulombs?

The charge of a positron is equal in magnitude but opposite in sign to that of an electron. Therefore, the charge of a positron is approximately 1.6 x 10^-19 coulombs.

What the charge of meson?

Mesons carry no net electric charge, as they are made up of a quark and an antiquark with equal and opposite charges. They are part of the family of subatomic particles known as hadrons, which are composite particles made up of quarks.

What is the charge of the particles in the nucleus of an atom?

Protons are each +1 and neutrons are neutral, giving the nucleus an overall positive charge equal to the number of protons in it, which is also the atomic number for that element.


What is a no charge particle called?

There are three basic types of atomic particles. Electrons, which have a negative charge, protons with a positive charge and neutrons, which have no charge.


Does charge of proton and elactron are equal?

The charge of the proton is +1. The charge of the electron is -1. They are equal but opposite.
